Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does the JT PT2748A-082A shaft fit?
A: The JT PT2748A-082A is a factory replacement wheel axle for Jet PTW-2748A and PTW-2748B manual pallet jacks with 27 x 48 inch fork assemblies. Verify your pallet jack model and frame size before ordering.
Q: What material is the JT PT2748A-082A shaft made from?
A: This shaft is constructed from hardened SAE 1045 carbon steel with an industrial black oxide finish. The hardening process increases wear resistance and load capacity, while the oxide coating provides corrosion protection in wet or humid warehouse environments.
Q: What bearing type does this shaft accommodate?
A: The JT PT2748A-082A is engineered for precision fit with 51109 thrust bearings. These bearings handle axial loads while maintaining smooth rotation of the load roller assembly.
Q: How is this shaft retained in the frame assembly?
A: The shaft is retained by snap rings and spring pins at each end. These fasteners prevent axial movement and keep the shaft centered within the load roller assembly during operation.
Q: What is the expected service life of this SAE 1045 shaft?
A: A properly maintained SAE 1045 carbon steel shaft typically delivers 5-7 years of service in normal warehouse duty cycles. Shafts showing scoring, corrosion, or loss of bearing preload should be replaced to prevent load roller drift and uneven weight distribution.
