Bearing Assembly for Pallet Jacks

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is bearing assembly A28829-61 used for?
A: SKU A28829-61 is a bearing assembly for manual pallet jack load wheels and steering columns. It supports vertical load transfer and smooth rotation on hydraulic and mechanical pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and similar manufacturers.

Q: How does A28829-61 differ from other bearing SKUs?
A: Bearing assemblies vary by bore size, outer diameter, and application. A28829-61 is designed for specific pallet jack models and mounting positions. Provide your equipment serial number or model to confirm compatibility with other bearing SKUs in our inventory.

Q: What happens if the bearing assembly fails?
A: Failed bearing assemblies cause rough wheel rotation, noise during operation, steering difficulty, or seized wheels. Continued use with a failed bearing damages surrounding components and creates safety hazards. Replace immediately upon detecting these symptoms.

Q: Can A28829-61 be used in wet or cold storage?
A: This bearing assembly uses standard lithium grease. In cold storage or wet environments, verify that your equipment uses load wheels with High Traction compounds rated for those conditions. The bearing itself functions in these environments but grease may require cold-weather formulation.

Q: What maintenance does A28829-61 require?
A: Bearing assemblies require periodic greasing per your equipment manufacturer schedule, typically every 50 to 100 operating hours in normal use. Apply lithium grease through the bearing housing. Do not over-grease, as excess causes overheating and accelerated wear.
