Commonly installed in Yale electric forklifts within contactor units, control panels, and traction motor circuits in material handling environments. Maintenance teams and system integrators use this component for electrical system repair, replacement, and restoring reliable current flow in worn or damaged contact assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"plkbhx\" data-start=\"520\" data-end=\"539\"\u003eApplications:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"540\" data-end=\"1109\"\u003eThe Yale 5168698-42 contact plate is used in electric forklift systems where conductive plates are required to complete high-current circuits within contactors and switching mechanisms. It is commonly applied in traction control systems, hydraulic control circuits, and power distribution assemblies in warehouse forklifts and industrial trucks where consistent electrical contact is critical for safe and efficient operation. Contact plates help reduce resistance and maintain system reliability under repeated switching cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"68ulmp\" data-start=\"1111\" data-end=\"1142\"\u003eTechnical Specifications:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1143\" data-end=\"1767\"\u003e• Manufacturer: Yale\u003cbr data-start=\"1163\" data-end=\"1166\"\u003e• Model \/ Part Number: 5168698-42 (516869842)\u003cbr data-start=\"1211\" data-end=\"1214\"\u003e• Product Type: Contact Plate\u003cbr data-start=\"1243\" data-end=\"1246\"\u003e• Function: Provides conductive surface for electrical current transfer\u003cbr data-start=\"1317\" data-end=\"1320\"\u003e• Application: Forklift contactor and control systems\u003cbr data-start=\"1373\" data-end=\"1376\"\u003e• Compatibility: Yale electric forklifts and material handling equipment\u003cbr data-start=\"1448\" data-end=\"1451\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e• Construction: Conductive metal plate (copper or alloy-based)\u003cbr data-start=\"1513\" data-end=\"1516\"\u003e• Installation: Mounted within contactor or switch assembly\u003cbr data-start=\"1575\" data-end=\"1578\"\u003e• Operation: Electrical contact interface component\u003cbr data-start=\"1629\" data-end=\"1632\"\u003e• Performance: Designed for high-current industrial switching applications\u003cbr data-start=\"1706\" data-end=\"1709\"\u003e• Application Environment: Industrial electrical systems\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"1ln9bp8\" data-start=\"1769\" data-end=\"1795\"\u003eCommon Replacements:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1796\" data-end=\"1855\"\u003e• Yale \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/yale-5168698-39-forklift-contact-plate-dc-516869839?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=1c928c384\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003e5168698-39\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1813\" data-end=\"1816\"\u003e• Yale 5168698-38\u003cbr data-start=\"1833\" data-end=\"1836\"\u003e• Hyster 5168698-42\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yale","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51733836398894,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_456770a2-2221-4b06-8320-1f0b83ee6543.jpg?v=1770603905","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/yale-5168698-42-forklift-contact-plate-replacement-part-516869842","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
