WW PM-22F

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the WW PM-22F traverse plate and what does it do?
A: The traverse plate is a structural component of the steering linkage that guides lateral movement of the front wheel assembly. It maintains alignment and distributes steering loads evenly. The WW PM-22F is designed for manual pallet jack steering geometry.

Q: Which Dayton pallet jack models use the WW PM-22F traverse plate?
A: The WW PM-22F is compatible with Dayton manual pallet jacks, specifically model 3KR84. Cross-compatibility with other models is not guaranteed. Always confirm your equipment model against the compatibility specification before ordering.

Q: What material is the WW PM-22F made from?
A: The traverse plate is manufactured from steel plate stock and is typically hardened or heat-treated to withstand repeated steering cycles and lateral load stress common in pallet jack service.

Q: What symptoms indicate the traverse plate is worn and needs replacement?
A: Signs of wear include excessive lateral play in the wheel assembly, binding during turns, uneven tire wear, or visible cracks in the plate. A compromised traverse plate degrades steering control and accelerates wear to connected components.

Q: Are there cross-reference part numbers or equivalent traverse plates?
A: The WW PM-22F is our house brand component for Dayton pallet jack steering assemblies. When sourcing replacements, reference the exact SKU to ensure dimensional and functional equivalence. Aftermarket geometry variations can create fitment problems.
