Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What forklift components use the ST41032 grease fitting?
A: The ST41032 grease fitting is used on load wheel bearings, steering pivot assemblies, and axle joints on forklifts from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Jungheinrich, Linde, CAT, and BT. It allows grease injection without disassembly.
Q: What thread size and connection type is the ST41032?
A: The ST41032 is a straight-thread grease fitting with a standard 1/4-inch NPT thread. Verify your equipment bore diameter and thread type match before ordering, as fitting compatibility depends on exact specifications.
Q: How often should grease be applied through the ST41032 fitting?
A: Grease intervals depend on forklift operating hours and load conditions. Most manufacturers recommend greasing wheel bearings and pivots every 250 to 500 operating hours or monthly during continuous operation. Heavy loads and wet conditions require more frequent application.
Q: Is the ST41032 compatible with all grease types?
A: The ST41032 accepts standard NLGI-2 general-purpose lithium-complex grease used on most forklifts. Do not mix grease types in the same fitting. Use manufacturer-specified grease to avoid bearing damage and reduced component life.
