Forklift Parts Braking & Drive Axle Master Cylinders MASTER CYLINDER 799791
Category: Master Cylinders
Product Description
The CL799791 master cylinder is a critical component in the hydraulic brake system of Clark forklifts. It converts the force applied to the brake pedal into hydraulic pressure, ensuring smooth and reliable braking. The design of the master cylinder for Clark forklifts, identified by part number CL799791, is built for durability and can withstand the rigorous demands of industrial environments. One aspect that often goes unnoticed is the precision engineering involved in the CL799791 master cylinder. Its construction ensures that hydraulic pressure is distributed evenly, reducing the wear and tear on brake components. This enhances safety and extends the lifespan of the forklift’s braking system.
Regular maintenance and timely replacement of the CL799791 master cylinder are essential to avoid potential brake failures, which can lead to costly downtime. Understanding the importance of this part helps maintain the efficiency and safety of Clark forklifts.

Symptoms of a Faulty Master Cylinder
A faulty master cylinder can significantly affect the braking performance of your Clark forklift. Recognizing these symptoms early can prevent serious safety hazards and costly repairs.
-
Spongy Brake Pedal: A brake pedal that feels soft or spongy when pressed indicates possible hydraulic fluid issues.
-
Brake Fluid Leaks: Noticeable leaks under the forklift or around the master cylinder area suggest a failing seal.
-
Reduced Braking Power: Decreased braking efficiency, requiring more force on the pedal, often points to internal damage.
-
Brake Pedal Sinking: If the brake pedal gradually sinks to the floor, it’s a clear sign of master cylinder failure.
-
Uneven Brake Wear: Uneven wear on brake pads or shoes can result from inconsistent hydraulic pressure distribution.
Recommended Use/Applications
-
Forklifts: It is ideal for Clark forklifts in heavy-duty industrial settings.
-
Warehouses: Enhances braking efficiency in warehouses and distribution centers.
-
Logistics: Perfect for use in logistics and freight operations.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What are the signs that this part needs replacement?
If you notice a spongy brake pedal, fluid leaks, or reduced braking efficiency, it may be time to replace it.
Can this part fit all Clark forklift models?
This part is designed for certain Clark forklift models. Before purchasing, always check compatibility with your forklift’s model number.
How often should I inspect the part?
Regular inspections are recommended every 6 to 12 months, mainly if the forklift is used in heavy-duty conditions.
What should I do if the brake pedal sinks?
A sinking brake pedal usually indicates a faulty component. To maintain safety, immediate inspection and potential replacement are necessary.
Is professional installation required, or can I install this myself?
While it’s possible to install it yourself, professional installation is recommended to ensure proper fit and function and reduce the risk of future issues.
