Bearing Assembly for Manual Pallet Jack Wheels

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the dimensions of the 1428-4162 bearing assembly?
A: The 1428-4162 is a single shielded deep groove bearing with the following dimensions: 20 mm inner diameter, 47 mm outer diameter, and 14 mm width. These specifications match the bearing housing and load requirements of manual pallet jack load and steer wheels for compatible OEM models.

Q: What is the difference between single shield and sealed bearings?
A: The 1428-4162 features a single metal shield that provides some protection against contaminants while allowing limited lubrication flow. Unlike fully sealed bearings, single-shielded bearings may require periodic inspection and lubrication maintenance, depending on your equipment operating environment and manufacturer recommendations.

Q: What material is the 1428-4162 made from?
A: The 1428-4162 is constructed from precision-ground chrome steel, a high-strength alloy engineered for industrial bearing applications. Chrome steel provides excellent hardness and wear resistance in manual pallet jack wheel assemblies subject to continuous load and rotation.

Q: Is the 1428-4162 pre-lubricated?
A: Yes, the 1428-4162 is supplied pre-lubricated at manufacture. The single metal shield allows access for re-lubrication if required by your equipment maintenance procedures. Check your pallet jack service documentation for lubrication intervals specific to your model and duty cycle.

Q: Which pallet jack models use the 1428-4162 bearing?
A: The 1428-4162 is compatible with manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and other OEM manufacturers that specify this part number for load wheel and steer wheel assemblies. Always confirm the bearing part number matches your equipment before ordering.

Q: What are the failure symptoms of a degraded 1428-4162 bearing?
A: Worn or failing 1428-4162 bearings typically produce grinding or squealing noises during wheel rotation, increased friction that resists smooth jack movement, or visible metal debris on the shield. These symptoms indicate the bearing races are worn and replacement is necessary.
