Linde 12162225222 Water Pump for HT16-HT20 Series Forklifts
Overview
The 12162225222 motor part water pump is the cooling system replacement for Linde counterbalance trucks in the HT16–HT20 class. The pump keeps coolant circulating between the engine block and the radiator, holding operating temperature stable through heavy lifting, long shifts and hot warehouse or yard conditions. When a water pump starts to fail, the typical warning signs are overheating, coolant loss from the weep hole or a rough bearing noise. Fitting a new 12162225222 for HT16Ds, HT18Ds or any compatible truck in the series prevents unplanned downtime and protects the engine from heat damage.
Compatibility
This water pump is specified for the Linde HT16/18/20 series, covering the 1.6 to 2.0 tonne trucks in both diesel (Ds) and LPG (Ts) configurations:
- HT16 series – diesel (Ds) and LPG (Ts) variants
- HT18 series – diesel (Ds) and LPG (Ts) variants
- HT20 series – diesel (Ds) and LPG (Ts) variants

Quality and Reliability
Forklift cooling components endure constant stress from vibration, heat cycles and coolant chemistry, so fit and material quality matter. This replacement pump matches the original Linde 12162225222 specification in mounting points, sealing surfaces, impeller size and flow characteristics, so it installs without modification and works with the truck’s existing hoses, thermostat and drive arrangement. Choosing a specification-matched pump instead of an approximate alternative helps maintain correct engine temperature and keeps performance where the manufacturer intended. For a brand with the reputation of Linde, fitting parts that follow the original design is the safest way to protect your investment.
Installation and Maintenance Tips
- Allow the engine to cool completely and drain the coolant before starting work.
- Always fit a new gasket or O-ring with the new pump; never reuse old seals.
- While the system is open, inspect the thermostat, hoses, drive belt and radiator core, and replace anything worn or blocked.
- Refill with the coolant grade specified for your Linde truck and bleed all air from the system before returning to service.
- During the first hours of operation, check the coolant level and watch for leaks around the pump.
Replace the water pump at the first sign of overheating or seal leakage — prompt action is far cheaper than a damaged engine.
