Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the dimensions and seal type of bearing 60042RS?
A: Bearing 60042RS is a double-sealed deep groove ball bearing with a 20 mm bore, 42 mm outer diameter, and 12 mm width. The 2RS designation indicates rubber seals on both sides. These dimensions are critical for fitment, so verify against your load wheel or roller assembly specifications.
Q: Which manual pallet jack brands does 60042RS fit?
A: The 60042RS bearing is compatible with numerous manual pallet jack brands that use 20 mm bore load wheels and rollers. Confirm your equipment specifications match the 20 mm bore and 42 mm OD before ordering to ensure proper fitment and performance.
Q: What material is 60042RS manufactured from?
A: This bearing assembly is constructed from AISI 52100 chrome steel with a reinforced nylon cage. Chrome steel provides superior hardness and corrosion resistance, while the reinforced cage maintains precise ball spacing and load distribution.
Q: What are the cross-reference and equivalent part numbers for 60042RS?
A: Bearing 60042RS supersedes and cross-references standard 6004-2RS and equivalent variations including 6004 2RS, 6004RS, 6004RS-12, BS 6004 2RS, 6004-2RS-12, and 6004 ZZ. Verify your OEM specification to select the correct equivalent for your application.
Q: How does the double-sealed design of 60042RS benefit load wheel performance?
A: The 2RS dual rubber seals on both sides protect the bearing interior from contaminants, moisture, and debris in warehouse environments. This extends bearing lifespan and reduces maintenance requirements compared to unsealed or single-sealed designs.
