YL 5199068-00

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What type of spring is the YL 5199068-00?
A: The YL 5199068-00 is a torsion spring engineered from oil-tempered high-carbon steel wire. It is designed for pedal or linkage assemblies in Yale electric lift trucks to provide reliable torsional return force.

Q: What cross-reference part numbers exist for this spring?
A: The YL 5199068-00 is cross-referenced under YT5199068-00 and YT 5199068-00. It supersedes and replaces those part numbers, so either reference can be used when ordering replacement springs.

Q: Why is oil-tempered high-carbon steel used in this spring?
A: Oil-tempered high-carbon steel provides superior fatigue resistance and spring memory, allowing the torsion spring to maintain consistent return force through thousands of pedal actuation cycles in material handling duty without permanent deformation.

Q: What Yale equipment does this torsion spring fit?
A: The YL 5199068-00 is manufactured for use in Yale electric lift truck pedal and linkage assemblies. Confirm your specific truck model and application with our parts team to ensure correct fitment.

Q: How long do these torsion springs typically last in service?
A: Lifespan depends on duty cycle and environmental conditions. Oil-tempered springs resist fatigue and corrosion, but springs subjected to extreme cold, impact, or overload may wear faster. Regular inspection of pedal feel and return action helps identify worn springs before failure.
