Cone Bearing

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the APSC-4104 bearing cone used for?
A: The APSC-4104 is a tapered bearing cone (inner race) for manual pallet jack load wheels. It works as part of a tapered roller bearing set, where the cone pairs with a matching bearing cup. This design supports radial and axial loads in pallet jack wheel assemblies.

Q: Which pallet jack brands use the APSC-4104 bearing cone?
A: The APSC-4104 is compatible with manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Clark, and Mitsubishi. Fitment depends on your specific model and axle configuration. Provide your equipment serial number for exact compatibility verification.

Q: What bearing cup pairs with the APSC-4104 cone?
A: Tapered roller bearing sets are matched pairs. The APSC-4104 cone requires a corresponding cup for proper fitment and load distribution. Contact us with your pallet jack model, and we will identify the correct matching cup SKU and verify the complete bearing assembly configuration.

Q: What material is the APSC-4104 bearing cone made from?
A: The APSC-4104 bearing cone is manufactured from hardened steel with precision grinding for tapered roller bearing applications. This material provides durability under the radial and axial loads typical of pallet jack wheel assemblies.

Q: When should the APSC-4104 bearing cone be replaced?
A: Replace the APSC-4104 if you observe grinding sounds, wheel wobble, or excessive play in the load wheel. Visual inspection may reveal pitting or spalling on the rolling surfaces. Bearing cones typically last 2-3 years with regular greasing and quarterly inspection.

Q: Can the APSC-4104 be reused after removal?
A: Tapered bearing cones should not be reused once removed. Relubrication and reinstallation may result in uneven preload and premature failure. Replace with a new APSC-4104 cone as part of routine maintenance to ensure consistent wheel performance and safety.
