Hydraulic Motor Shortage?

[Earl Weiss]

Needed to replace a Char Lynn 101-1003. went to the local shop. They were out of stock. Out of stock Checked 3 internet sites. 3-8 weeks until delivery. Grainger may have been in stock but their price was double everyoneelse.

Called Kleen Rite. They had 3 left. Grabbed them. Any one heard anything?

You can also use the 101-1011. Same motor, but with sae #10 o-ring fittings instead of straight 1/2" npt threads. KR always has one or the other. I keep extra fittings for both just in case there is an issue. But I stock an extra motor at each location.

My guess is that most of these things are now made in China. So until the next boat comes in...

I wonder if the west coast port slowdown was a factor.

Plenty in stock. No problem.
