Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is SKU 18640 bearing assembly used for?
A: SKU 18640 is a bearing assembly designed for manual pallet jack load wheels and steering wheels. It serves as the axle support component that allows smooth rotation under load. This bearing handles the wheel weight and operational forces typical to manual hydraulic pallet jacks.
Q: Which manual pallet jack brands is SKU 18640 compatible with?
A: SKU 18640 is compatible with manual pallet jacks from major manufacturers including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and similar brands. Verify the bore diameter and overall dimensions match your specific equipment model before ordering, as bearing mounting dimensions vary.
Q: What material is SKU 18640 constructed from?
A: Bearing assemblies like SKU 18640 are typically constructed from bearing-grade steel (often ASTM 52100 or similar) with hardened, ground races designed for load cycling. The outer race may be sealed with rubber or metal shields to protect against dirt and debris common in warehouse environments.
Q: What load capacity does SKU 18640 support?
A: SKU 18640 is rated for static and dynamic loads typical to standard manual pallet jack applications, commonly 4000 to 5500 pounds per wheel set. Exact load rating depends on bearing size and material specifications. Verify load rating matches your equipment capacity rating before ordering.
Q: How do I know when SKU 18640 bearing needs replacement?
A: Replace SKU 18640 when you observe wheel wobble, rough rotation, grinding noise, or excessive play in the wheel. If the wheel does not spin freely or the bearing shows lateral movement on the axle, the bearing assembly has worn beyond usable limits and should be replaced.
