Bearing Assembly - Single Shield

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the single shield design in BR-124?
A: Single shield refers to a bearing with a metal or plastic dust cover on one side only. This design allows easier installation in tight wheel hub spaces on manual pallet jacks while still protecting bearing internals from debris and moisture. The single shield configuration is standard for manual load wheel applications.

Q: Which manual pallet jack brands use BR-124?
A: BR-124 is compatible with manual pallet jacks from Crown, Yale, Raymond, Hyster, Clark, and similar OEM manufacturers. It fits standard 50mm and 55mm load wheel hub bores used across most manual pump truck designs. Cross-reference your equipment model number to confirm compatibility before ordering.

Q: What load rating does BR-124 support?
A: BR-124 is rated for manual pallet jacks with standard load capacities up to 5,500 lbs. The bearing is designed to handle the radial and thrust loads encountered during load lifting and movement. Verify your specific truck model capacity to ensure BR-124 meets your equipment requirements.

Q: Can BR-124 be used on steer wheels or only load wheels?
A: BR-124 is engineered for manual pallet jack load wheel hub applications where the bearing carries the payload weight. Steer wheel bearings on manual trucks typically use different bearing assemblies due to lower load requirements and different installation geometry. Confirm your wheel position before ordering.
