Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a distance pipe used for on a pallet jack?
A: A distance pipe is a spacer component that maintains the correct spacing and alignment between wheel assemblies or axle components. It ensures proper load distribution and wheel tracking. The distance pipe is a critical spacing element in the wheel assembly geometry.
Q: What Bishamon pallet jack models use the BI 12003743 distance pipe?

Q: What are the dimensions and material of the BI 12003743?
A: The BI 12003743 is a precision-manufactured distance pipe. Exact dimensions depend on the specific jack model and frame design. Consult your OEM parts drawing or contact us with your serial number to obtain the correct specification before ordering.
Q: What happens if the distance pipe is missing or damaged?
A: A missing or damaged distance pipe will cause improper wheel spacing and alignment. This leads to uneven load distribution, irregular tire wear, and steering problems. The jack may pull to one side or exhibit wobbly wheel movement. Replace a damaged distance pipe immediately to restore safe operation.
Q: Can I use a different brand distance pipe as a substitute?
A: No. The distance pipe is a precision spacing component. Dimensions must match exactly. Using an incorrect or non-OEM distance pipe will cause misalignment and assembly failure. Always use the correct OEM part number for your specific frame design and model year.
