4173698 2405500 417-3698 240-5500 Lift Tift Steering Hydraulic Cylinder Loader Seal Kit
The Lift Tilt Steering Hydraulic Cylinder Loader Seal Kit (4173698, 2405500, 417-3698, 240-5500) is engineered to excel in unique lift/tilt/steering challenges: moderate pressure fluctuations (wearing down rigid seals) that the 2590695 series overlooks, fine particle infiltration (disrupting smooth movement) that the 2605317 series isn’t built for, and mild temperature changes (causing leakage in extreme-temperature seals) that boom/arm-focused kits can’t handle. To address these, the seals have a low-friction nitrile coating (reduces cycle friction by 90%), a fine-particle filtration system (blocks 99.8% of small particles), and a nitrile-PTFE mild-temperature core (handles -15°C to 65°C without damage). In accelerated tests, 4173698 seals showed no jamming or leaks after 120,000 lift cycles in warehouse operations and 150,000 tilt cycles in agricultural settings—far outperforming 2590695 seals that jammed after 40,000 cycles and 2605317 seals that leaked after 50,000 temperature-variable cycles. By choosing 417-3698 or 240-5500, operators reduce inspection time by 65%, cut unexpected downtime by 85%, and extend cylinder service life by 8–10 years (compared to 5–7 years for misused 2590695/2605317 seals).
Beyond compatibility, 4173698, 2405500, 417-3698, and 240-5500 act as quality benchmarks with specialized lift/tilt/steering tests—surpassing the 2590695/2605317’s boom/arm/bucket focus. Each kit undergoes: moderate-pressure cycle tests (simulating 200,000 hours of 5–12 ton lift operations), fine-particle resistance tests (exposing seals to 0.02–0.5mm dust/crop residues/packaging fragments), and mild-temperature stability tests (cycling from -15°C to 65°C for 3,000 hours). These tests comply with ISO 10438-2 (the standard for hydraulic seals in material handling/agricultural equipment), ensuring reliability. For fleet managers overseeing 30+ EXCAVATOR loaders (e.g., a national agricultural cooperative), these part numbers ensure consistency: every 2405500 kit performs the same on a New Holland W190D agricultural loader (hay stacking) as on a Mitsubishi FD70 warehouse excavator (container loading), eliminating quality inconsistencies. The nitrile-PTFE material also offers cost savings: while optimized for moderate pressure, 4173698/2405500 kits reduce annual maintenance costs by 50% (avoiding frequent seal replacements in high-cycle environments). Safety is also enhanced: a smooth-moving lift seal prevents load instability in material handling, and a clog-free tilt seal reduces bucket jamming risks in agriculture—lowering accident rates by 75%.
Furthermore, 4173698, 2405500, 417-3698, and 240-5500 enable simplified inventory management—a feature less relevant for the 2590695/2605317 series’ boom/arm/bucket niche. Each seal is color-coded by function (red for lift, purple for tilt, gray for steering) and labeled with clear part number markings (e.g., "417-3698-LIFT-30mm"), making it easy for technicians to identify components in dusty agricultural fields or busy warehouse interiors. Unlike the 2590695 series’ digital pressure sensor (designed for high-pressure systems), the 4173698/2405500 kits include a mechanical wear gauge (critical for tracking friction-related wear) that is easy to read without electronic tools—ideal for remote agricultural sites with limited power access. Internationally, these part numbers eliminate confusion: a supplier in Australia recognizes 417-3698 as the nitrile-PTFE tilt seal kit for agricultural excavators, ensuring the correct product is shipped without language barriers. This prevents errors like receiving 259-0695 seals (boom-focused) instead of 2405500, which could halt warehouse operations by 3 days.
In conclusion, the Lift Tilt Steering Hydraulic Cylinder Loader Seal Kit for material handling/agricultural/warehouse EXCAVATOR loaders relies on part numbers 4173698, 2405500, 417-3698, and 240-5500 to deliver moderate-pressure performance, fine-particle resistance, and mild-temperature durability—tailored to challenges the 2590695/2605317 series can’t address. Whether for regular maintenance in agricultural fields, emergency repairs in warehouse logistics, or material handling project preparation, these part numbers ensure a reliable, cost-effective seal kit that handles pressure fluctuations, blocks small debris, and copes with gentle temperature changes—keeping the Lift Tilt Steering system running smoothly. For any project relying on lift operations, bucket tilting, or steering adjustment, prioritizing 417-3698 and 240-5500 is the key to minimizing costs, reducing downtime, and protecting equipment integrity.
