Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does bearing assembly LA5520001-348 fit?
A: Bearing assembly LA5520001-348 is designed for forklift wheel and load wheel applications. This bearing is compatible with Toyota, Hyster, CAT, Mitsubishi, Clark, and BT forklifts. Verify your forklift model, serial range, and wheel hub bore diameter match the specifications for LA5520001-348 before ordering to ensure fitment.
Q: What are the material specifications for bearing LA5520001-348?
A: Bearing assembly LA5520001-348 is manufactured from precision ground steel races and hardened steel balls. The bearing is engineered to handle the higher loads and continuous duty cycles typical of forklift operations. Verify the bearing size and load rating match your forklift wheel assembly specifications.
Q: Is bearing LA5520001-348 a sealed or shielded design?
A: Confirm whether bearing assembly LA5520001-348 includes a seal, shield, or open design by cross-referencing your forklift documentation or the bearing datasheet. Sealed bearings provide better protection in wet environments. Shielded bearings allow easier maintenance access. Verify the specific design required for your forklift before ordering.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of bearing assembly LA5520001-348?
A: Under normal forklift duty cycles, bearing assembly LA5520001-348 typically lasts 4 to 6 years. Lifespan depends on load frequency, floor surface conditions, maintenance intervals, and lubrication practices. Replace the bearing if you notice wheel drag, grinding sounds, or visible race wear. High-intensity warehouse operations may reduce lifespan.
Q: Does bearing LA5520001-348 require maintenance or relubrication?
A: Bearing assembly LA5520001-348 maintenance requirements depend on the seal or shield type. Sealed bearings require no lubrication access. Shielded bearings may need occasional relubrication depending on operating conditions and forklift maintenance schedules. Consult your forklift manual for recommended lubrication intervals and specifications.
