Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 71188 washer used for in electric lift trucks?

Q: Which electric pallet jack brands use the 71188 washer?
A: The 71188 is compatible with electric lift trucks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Jungheinrich, Linde, and BT. The specific application point varies by model and hydraulic system design. Confirm your equipment model and assembly before ordering.
Q: What material and thickness is the 71188 washer?
A: Contact us for exact material composition, thickness, and inner/outer diameter specifications of the 71188. Washer material varies by application; it may be steel, stainless steel, or composite depending on whether it contacts hydraulic fluid or ambient air.
Q: How often should the 71188 washer be replaced?
A: The 71188 is typically a permanent component and does not wear during normal operation. Replace it only if damage is discovered during assembly, if fasteners loosen repeatedly, or if the truck undergoes major hydraulic system overhaul. Most fleet trucks retain the original washer throughout service life.
Q: Can the 71188 washer be interchanged with other brands?
A: No, washer fitment depends on fastener size, mounting hole diameter, and application location. Do not substitute with generic washers without confirming dimensions and material compatibility. Using an incorrect washer may cause fastener failure, fluid leakage, or equipment downtime.
