Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is part number 40353 and what is it used for?
A: Part number 40353 is a heavy-duty axle designed for manual pallet jack fork assemblies. It provides the structural support and mounting surface for load wheels and carries the transverse load during lifting and transport operations.
Q: Which manual pallet jacks is part number 40353 compatible with?
A: Part number 40353 is compatible with manual pallet jacks. Verify bore diameter and length match your fork assembly before ordering.
Q: What material is part number 40353 made from?
A: Part number 40353 is manufactured from SAE 1045 carbon steel with a black oxide finish for corrosion resistance. It is precision machined to accept pressed roller bearings.
Q: How durable is part number 40353?
A: The SAE 1045 carbon steel construction with black oxide surface treatment provides excellent durability for high-cycle warehouse environments. Expected service life is 3 to 5 years under normal operation. Replace if the axle develops bending, cracks, or if roller bearings cannot be pressed cleanly.
Q: What are the key features of part number 40353?
A: Part number 40353 features a Rockwell C35-40 hardness range for tensile strength to handle point loads from wheels and forks while maintaining toughness to resist shock loading during rapid lift cycles.
Q: How should I replace part number 40353?
A: When replacing part number 40353, ensure the new axle matches the bore diameter and length of your existing fork assembly. Press out the old roller bearings and install the new axle with appropriate lubrication.
