Toyota OEM Ball Bearing Assembly for Pallet Jacks

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the exact metric dimensions of bearing 97103-06204?
A: This single shielded ball bearing has a 20 mm bore diameter, 47 mm outer diameter, and 14 mm width. These dimensions define the load wheel and pivot point locations on compatible Toyota-brand manual pallet jacks.

Q: Which manual pallet jack brands and models are compatible with 97103-06204?
A: This is a Toyota OEM bearing assembly, making it the direct replacement for Toyota manual pallet jack models that use this bearing. Some cross-compatible models from Crown and Raymond may also use the same metric dimensions if they were sourced from the same supplier during their production year.

Q: What materials are used in the ball and race construction?
A: The bearing features hardened steel balls per SAE 52100 specification paired with chrome steel races. This material combination provides excellent wear resistance and load capacity for the dynamic rotation demands of wheel assemblies and pivot points.

Q: Is 97103-06204 pre-lubricated and what maintenance is required?
A: Yes, this bearing arrives pre-lubricated with industrial-grade lubricant and is rated for industrial service. Periodic inspection for play or rough rotation is recommended; full replacement is typically more practical than attempting to relubricate sealed bearing assemblies in the field.

Q: What cross-reference and equivalent part numbers apply to 97103-06204?
A: Cross-reference numbers include 97103-06204-85 (earlier superseded version) and TY97103-06204 (Toyota equivalent designation). When ordering replacement bearings, verify all dimensions match before substituting any alternative part number.

Q: What precision class rating does this bearing meet?
A: This bearing meets ABEC 1 minimum precision class specification. This rating ensures concentricity and runout tolerance appropriate for material handling equipment where smoothness is important but extreme runout tolerance is not critical.
