Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between 6209Z and 6209-ZZ bearings?
A: The 6209Z has a single metal shield on one side, while 6209-ZZ has dual metal shields. The 6209Z is suitable for less dusty environments and offers lower friction. Use 6209-ZZ for high-contamination cold storage or wet floor applications.
Q: Which manual pallet jack models accept the 6209Z bearing?
A: The 6209Z fits load wheel assemblies on manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster. Verify your specific model and wheel diameter to ensure correct fitment before ordering.
Q: What is the rated load capacity of the 6209Z bearing?
A: The 6209Z is a standard metric bearing with a dynamic load rating of approximately 8.8 kilonewtons and static load rating of 5.3 kilonewtons. This capacity is suitable for standard 5000-pound pallet jacks under normal operating conditions.
Q: How often should the 6209Z bearing be greased?
A: Grease the 6209Z every 500 operating hours or monthly under typical use, whichever comes first. In wet or cold storage environments, increase greasing frequency to every 250 hours. Use lithium-based multipurpose grease compatible with sealed ball bearings.
Q: Is the 6209Z bearing sealed or open design?
A: The 6209Z is a single-shield design with an open side. It provides better lubrication access and lower drag than fully sealed bearings but requires more frequent maintenance in dusty or wet environments.
