DA 2748-49-96

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the DA 2748-49-96 pressure roller shaft used for?
A: The DA 2748-49-96 is a pressure roller shaft component for Dayton model 4YX96 pallet jacks. This is the steel rod core that provides structural support and rotational capacity for the pressure roller assembly. It connects the roller to the jack frame and carries load forces during operation.

Q: How does the pressure roller shaft fail or wear?
A: The DA 2748-49-96 shaft can develop bend, corrosion pitting, or loss of load capacity due to continuous pressure and friction. A bent or corroded shaft will prevent the roller from maintaining even pressure on load wheels, causing uneven wheel wear and jack instability. Inspect the shaft regularly for visible damage or deformation.

Q: Can the DA 2748-49-96 pressure roller shaft be used as a standalone part or is it sold as an assembly?
A: Verify whether the DA 2748-49-96 is sold as the shaft core only or as a complete roller assembly with the sleeve and bearings included. This determines replacement complexity and overall part cost. Contact us to confirm the exact configuration and whether additional components are required.

Q: What are the critical dimensions I should verify for the DA 2748-49-96?
A: Key specifications include shaft diameter, overall length, bearing bore diameter, and the size and spacing of mounting holes. These dimensions must match your Dayton 4YX96 frame assembly exactly. Measure the existing shaft or consult the equipment manual before ordering.

Q: Is the DA 2748-49-96 compatible with other Dayton pallet jack models?
A: The DA 2748-49-96 is specified for model 4YX96 only. Do not assume compatibility with other Dayton models or different manufacturers. Shaft diameter, bearing size, and frame mounting are model-specific and will not interchange without causing safety and performance issues.
