Flanged Bushing
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the LM 025980 flanged bushing used for?
A: The LM 025980 is a flanged bushing for manual pallet jacks. This component provides bearing support on the lift mechanism and reduces friction between moving parts. It is commonly found in load wheel assemblies and mast sections across multiple manual pallet jack models from brands like Crown, Toyota, and Raymond.
Q: What material is the LM 025980 flanged bushing made from?
A: The LM 025980 is typically constructed from bronze or sintered bronze composite material. This composition provides excellent wear resistance and self-lubricating properties, allowing it to operate effectively with minimal maintenance under typical material handling loads.
Q: How do I know if the LM 025980 needs replacement?
A: Replace the LM 025980 when you notice increased friction, grinding noises during lift operation, lateral wheel movement, or excessive play in the load wheel assembly. These symptoms indicate bushing wear and reduced load capacity.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of the LM 025980 flanged bushing?
A: Lifespan depends on usage frequency and operating conditions. With normal material handling use, the LM 025980 typically lasts 3-5 years before showing significant wear. Frequent use in demanding environments may reduce this timeframe.
