Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the EA E126 lock nut?
A: The EA E126 is a lock nut used on Eagleman manual pallet jacks. Lock nuts have a deformed nylon insert or metal prevailing torque feature that increases friction and resists vibration-induced loosening. This design keeps critical fasteners secure during equipment operation.
Q: What Eagleman models use the EA E126 lock nut?
A: The EA E126 is compatible with Eagleman pallet jacks designated as LOCK NUT models. Verify the thread pitch, diameter, and height of the nut match your fastener specification before ordering. Do not assume all lock nuts are the same size.
Q: What is the material composition of the EA E126?
A: The EA E126 lock nut is made from hardened steel with a protective finish, typically zinc or nickel plated. The nylon insert or deformed threads resist corrosion and provide consistent anti-vibration performance in warehouse and outdoor environments.
Q: How long can the EA E126 lock nut be reused?
A: If the EA E126 has a nylon insert, the insert degrades over repeated removal and reinstallation. Best practice is to replace the nut when disassembling critical fasteners. Reusing a nylon-insert lock nut more than three times significantly reduces its vibration-resistance effectiveness.
