2042432 Travel 2nd Planetary Carrier for Hitachi ZX200 ZX210 ZX225

2042432 Travel 2nd Planetary Carrier

The 2042432 planetary carrier is a replacement component used in the second planetary reduction stage of an excavator final drive and travel reduction gearbox.

It supports the planetary gear set and helps transfer rotational force through the reduction system, allowing the travel gearbox to reduce speed and increase torque before power reaches the track drive.

Correct carrier alignment and stable support of the planetary gear set are important for smooth power transmission and reliable excavator travel performance.

Compatible Excavator Models

This travel carrier is used in selected Hitachi excavator final drive configurations, including:

• Hitachi ZX180 series

• Hitachi ZX200 series

• Hitachi ZX200-3

• Hitachi ZX210 series

• Hitachi ZX225 series

• Hitachi ZX240 series

Final drive configurations can vary between machine generations and serial number ranges.

If you are unsure about compatibility, send us the excavator model, machine serial number and photos of the original carrier for verification before ordering.

Where 2042432 Is Used

The carrier operates inside the excavator travel reduction gearbox as part of the planetary gear system.

During travel operation, rotational power from the hydraulic travel motor passes through multiple reduction stages. The planetary carrier helps maintain the position of the planet gears while transmitting torque through the gearbox.

Wear or damage to the carrier may be associated with symptoms such as:

• Abnormal grinding or knocking noise from the final drive

• Excessive backlash inside the reduction gearbox

• Metal particles found in final drive oil

• Unstable or uneven travel performance

• Reduced travel drive under load

When carrier damage is found, the surrounding planetary reduction components should also be inspected before the final drive is reassembled.

Ordering and Fitment Verification

To help confirm the correct replacement carrier, please provide one or more of the following:

• Excavator brand and model

• Machine serial number

• Original part information

• Travel motor or final drive model

• Photos of the original carrier

• Dimensions or gear specifications when available

Checking the original component and final drive configuration before ordering helps reduce the risk of selecting an incorrect travel gearbox part.
