Komatsu 3EE-72-21211 Bearing for FD100-6 / FD115 Forklifts
Overview
The Komatsu 3EE-72-21211 BEARING is a replacement spare part for heavy-duty Komatsu diesel forklifts in the FD100 and FD115 families. Bearings in these trucks support rotating shafts, manage load, and keep friction under control. When one starts to wear, operators often notice grinding or rumbling noises, heat, vibration, or play in the affected assembly. Installing the correct 3EE-72-21211 for FD100-6, FD115-6, or FD115-7 equipment restores proper fit and clearances and helps protect surrounding components from secondary damage. This page covers fitment, quality, and ordering details for part number 3EE-72-21211.
Compatibility
The 3EE-72-21211 BEARING fits three Komatsu forklift series and their common configurations:
- FD100-6 series — including -DM and -OP variants
- FD115-6 series — including -DM and -OP variants
- FD115-7 series — including the -OP variant
These FD-series machines are large-capacity pneumatic-tire diesel forklifts built for demanding industrial and logistics work, so using the exact part number matters. If you are not certain that 3EE-72-21211 matches your truck, send us your model and serial number and our parts team will confirm fitment before you order.
Quality and Reliability
Because this component carries the Komatsu 3EE-72-21211 number, it follows the specification behind that part number: correct dimensions, seating surfaces, and load ratings for the original application rather than a generic ‘close enough’ substitute. A correctly specified bearing runs quieter, distributes loads evenly, and lasts longer, which reduces unplanned downtime on high-utilization trucks. Whether you maintain a single FD115-7 or a mixed fleet of FD100-6 and FD115-6 units, keeping a verified spare like the 3EE-72-21211 BEARING on the shelf is a simple way to shorten repair turnaround.
Installation and Maintenance Tips
Before fitting the new bearing, keep these points in mind:
- Confirm the part number on your old bearing or in the Komatsu parts manual before starting work.
- Replace bearings in a clean workspace; contamination is one of the leading causes of premature bearing failure.
- Use a press, puller, and properly sized drivers rather than striking the bearing directly with a hammer.
- Inspect the mating shaft and housing for scoring, wear, or corrosion, and replace damaged seals at the same time.
- Follow the torque values and lubrication intervals given in your machine’s service manual.
- Log the repair and note the 3EE-72-21211 part number for faster reordering.
