Lifecycle note for the stocking buyer
The catalogue carries an eol_hot flag against 1FK7043-7AH71-1FB0 — this is the field the OEM uses to mark parts that have shifted off the standard ordering menu and into legacy allocation, so the practical reading is that the line is winding down rather than broadly active. No official successor code is recorded on the ledger entry; with no L* successor on file, no compatible drop-in is asserted here, and any cross-pole number must be validated against the original machine's torque/inertia demands before quoting.
Sourcing posture and RFQ path
Where the OEM channel is no longer the cleanest route, the part is handled through independent surplus distribution: quoted to order, lot-traced, and confirmed against the BOM quantity at RFQ — lead time and current pricing come back with the quote rather than off the shelf.
