Nylon Bushing
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the specifications of the IN 140.6017 nylon bushing?
A: The IN 140.6017 is manufactured from injection-molded engineering-grade nylon polymer. This precision-manufactured bushing is designed for use in Interthor K77 and K85 hydraulic units, providing wear resistance and proper alignment within the hydraulic system.
Q: Which Interthor pallet jack models use the IN 140.6017 bushing?
A: The IN 140.6017 nylon bushing is a direct replacement for Interthor K77 and K85 manual pallet jacks. It fits specifically in the hydraulic unit assembly of these models. Verify your equipment matches these specifications before ordering.
Q: What cross-reference part numbers exist for the IN 140.6017?
A: Cross-reference part numbers for the IN 140.6017 include: IN140.6017 and IT140.6017. However, order using the primary SKU IN 140.6017 to ensure accuracy and avoid confusion with alternative formats.
Q: Why is the IN 140.6017 made from nylon instead of metal?
A: Engineering-grade nylon offers superior wear resistance in hydraulic applications, reduces friction, and does not corrode from hydraulic fluid exposure. Nylon bushings also provide damping properties that reduce noise and vibration in the hydraulic unit compared to metal alternatives.
Q: How long does the IN 140.6017 bushing last before replacement is needed?
A: Bushing lifespan typically ranges from 3-7 years depending on usage intensity, hydraulic fluid condition, and maintenance. Signs of wear include increased noise from the hydraulic unit, leaking hydraulic fluid, or misalignment of the ram. Regular inspection of hydraulic seals and fluid levels extends bushing life.
Q: What role does the IN 140.6017 play in pallet jack operation?
A: This nylon bushing provides precision alignment and wear protection within the hydraulic unit. It ensures smooth operation of hydraulic components and prevents metal-to-metal contact that would cause accelerated wear and system failure in Interthor K77 and K85 jacks.
