Cone, bearing with rubber seal
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a bearing cone with rubber seal and where is it used?
A: A bearing cone is the inner race component of a tapered roller bearing assembly. The rubber seal protects the rolling elements from dirt and moisture. In lift trucks, these cones are used in wheel hubs, mast assemblies, and drive axles.
Q: Which lift truck models use bearing cone 1304968?
A: This bearing cone is compatible with electric and internal combustion lift trucks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Hyster, and Clark. Verify shaft diameter and bore specifications match your equipment before ordering.
Q: What does the rubber seal on this bearing cone protect against?
A: The rubber seal prevents water, dirt, dust, and chemical contamination from entering the bearing races and rolling elements. This extends bearing life and reduces maintenance in wet or outdoor warehouse conditions.
Q: What load ratings can bearing cone 1304968 handle?
A: Load capacity depends on the complete bearing assembly specifications. Verify the radial and axial load ratings in your equipment documentation or bearing specification sheet to ensure this component matches your application.
Q: What are the dimensions and specifications for 1304968?
A: Confirm bore diameter, cone width, and pitch diameter from your equipment parts list. Bearing cones are precision components; purchasing the exact part number ensures proper fit and function.
Q: How long does a bearing cone with rubber seal typically last?
A: Bearing cone life depends on operating hours, load, lubrication, and seal condition. In typical lift truck service, expect 5 to 7 years before seal degradation or rolling element wear requires replacement.
