BEARING assembly (SINGLE SHIELD)
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a single shield bearing assembly and where does it fit?
A: The 26402930 is a single shield bearing assembly used in manual pallet jacks and material handling equipment. Single shield design protects from light contamination on one side while allowing ventilation. It fits load wheel and steering wheel positions on manual jacks from brands like Crown, Toyota, and Raymond. Verify your equipment model and wheel position before ordering.
Q: What material is this bearing made from and how long does it last?
A: The 26402930 assembly uses chrome steel races and bearing balls with a single metal shield for corrosion protection. Lifespan depends on load, floor conditions, and maintenance, typically 2-4 years in normal warehouse use. Bearings operated in wet or corrosive environments may degrade faster.
Q: Are there cross-reference or equivalent bearing assemblies?
A: The 26402930 may have equivalents across OEM part systems from different manufacturers. If your equipment uses a different bearing reference number, confirm the bore diameter, outer diameter, and width match before substituting. Contact our parts team for cross-reference assistance.
Q: What maintenance does this bearing assembly require?
A: Keep the bearing clean and dry. Bearing degradation symptoms include grinding noise, increased friction, or loose wheel movement. Replace the assembly immediately if these occur. Do not attempt to clean or relubricate; replace as a unit.
