Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the thread and material specifications for CR 060021-096?
A: CR 060021-096 is a 1-12 UNF hex nut manufactured from Grade 8 carbon steel per SAE J429. The nut has a phosphate and oil finish with a minimum Rockwell C33 hardness rating. This high-strength grade is specified for critical axle and hardware assemblies on Crown pallet jacks.
Q: Which Crown electric pallet truck models is this nut compatible with?
A: CR 060021-096 is designed for Crown PE 3000 Series and PE 4000 Series electric pallet trucks. It secures axle and hardware assemblies on these models. Verify your specific Crown model before ordering.
Q: What is the advantage of Grade 8 steel over Grade 2 for this application?
A: Grade 8 carbon steel provides significantly higher tensile strength and hardness compared to Grade 2. The Rockwell C33 minimum hardness and SAE J429 specification deliver superior load-bearing capacity for critical axle fastening. This grade is essential where vibration and shock loading occur.
Q: What does the phosphate and oil finish provide?
A: Phosphate and oil finish provides moderate corrosion protection and lubricity. The phosphate coating reduces wear during assembly and helps prevent surface corrosion during storage. This finish is standard for Grade 8 fasteners in industrial equipment applications.
Q: What are the alternate OEM part numbers for CR 060021-096?
A: The OEM part number is 060021-096. Contact us directly for available cross-reference numbers across other equipment manufacturers, or provide your Crown equipment model and assembly location for specific alternate references.
