Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the YL 501087300 Drive Wheel Hub and what does it replace?
A: The YL 501087300 is a machined steel replacement hub for Yale MP and MPB 040 AC electric pallet jacks. It replaces and supersedes the YL 5010873-00 and YT 5010873-00 part numbers and connects the drive wheel directly to the axle in the electric drive and brake assembly.
Q: Are there alternative part numbers equivalent to YL 501087300?
A: Yes. The YL 501087300 is cross-referenced to YT501087300, 501087300, YL5010873-00, and YT5010873-00. These designations refer to the same component and are interchangeable for ordering and maintenance.
Q: What material properties make the YL 501087300 suitable for electric pallet jack drive systems?
A: The hub is precision-machined from steel, offering high strength and wear resistance. Steel construction maintains tight tolerances for axle fitment and resists deformation under repeated load cycling typical in electric pallet jack operation.
Q: How do I confirm the YL 501087300 is the correct part for my Yale pallet jack?
A: Verify your equipment is a Yale MP or MPB 040 AC model. Cross-check the hub against the part diagram for your drive unit assembly and confirm mounting dimensions match before installation.
Q: What maintenance keeps the YL 501087300 hub functioning properly?
A: Periodically inspect the hub bore for wear and the axle connection for excessive play. Keep the hub and surrounding components clean and free of debris. Replace the hub if you observe radial wobble, axle bore damage, or cracks in the steel body.
Q: Can the YL 501087300 be used as a direct replacement for the YL 5010873-00?
A: Yes. The YL 501087300 is an updated designation for the same component previously numbered YL 5010873-00. They are functionally identical and dimensionally compatible.
