Good To Know

Q: Will this hydraulic cap fit my CAT 242 skid steer? A: Yes, the 142-8937 hydraulic cap is designed to fit the listed models including the CAT 242, but always verify your serial number to confirm compatibility before ordering.

Q: What does the hydraulic cap actually do? A: It seals the hydraulic reservoir opening, preventing fluid loss and keeping dirt and moisture out of the hydraulic system, which is critical for the longevity of the pump and valves.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
