Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the dimensions of the MI 2H3814 deep groove ball bearing?
A: The MI 2H3814 has a 25 mm bore diameter, 52 mm outer diameter, and 15 mm width. This single-row, deep groove configuration fits multiple Mitsubishi electric lift truck models. Always verify dimensions against your equipment before ordering.
Q: What does C3 clearance mean for the MI 2H3814?
A: C3 clearance indicates greater-than-normal internal radial clearance, creating a loose fit. This specification is required for certain Mitsubishi lift truck applications where standard clearance is insufficient. Do not substitute with C0 or C2 clearance bearings.
Q: Can I use the MI 2H3814 to replace a Caterpillar 2H3814 bearing?
A: Yes. The MI 2H3814 cross-references to Caterpillar 2H3814. Both share identical bore diameter, outer diameter, width, and C3 clearance specifications. Confirm your equipment OEM before ordering to ensure correct application.
Q: What material are MI 2H3814 bearings made from?
A: The MI 2H3814 is constructed from high-carbon chromium bearing steel with a steel cage. This material combination provides durability for electric lift truck load-carrying and steering applications under continuous operation.
Q: How often should MI 2H3814 bearings be replaced?
A: Bearing lifespan depends on load conditions, operating hours, and lubrication maintenance. Replace the MI 2H3814 immediately if you detect noise, vibration, resistance during steering, or loss of smooth rotation. Preventive replacement during major service intervals extends equipment uptime.
