Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is SKU 00300-08000?
A: SKU 00300-08000 is a lockwasher engineered for manual pallet jack assemblies. It is designed to prevent fastener loosening in frame, pump, and hydraulic assemblies subject to continuous vibration and mechanical stress during daily use.
Q: Which manual pallet jack brands does the 00300-08000 fit?
A: The 00300-08000 lockwasher is compatible with manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and other major OEM manufacturers. Verify the fastener diameter and bolt configuration match your equipment model before ordering.
Q: What material is the 00300-08000 lockwasher made from?
A: The 00300-08000 is manufactured from hardened steel with a split-ring or wave design that provides consistent spring tension to resist vibration-induced fastener loosening in manual pallet jack applications.
Q: How do I correctly install the 00300-08000 lockwasher?
A: Place the lockwasher directly onto the bolt before installing the nut. Tighten the fastener with steady, even pressure. The washer should be compressed but still maintain its spring shape. Do not over-tighten as this will flatten the washer and reduce its effectiveness.
Q: What are the signs that a 00300-08000 lockwasher needs replacement?
A: Replace the lockwasher if associated fasteners repeatedly loosen, if the washer appears flattened or permanently deformed, if it is rusted or damaged, or during routine maintenance. Regular inspection of all pallet jack fasteners will identify when replacement is necessary.
Q: Is the 00300-08000 reusable after removal?
A: No. Once a lockwasher is removed and compressed, it cannot be reliably reinstalled. The spring tension that provides vibration resistance is compromised. Always use new lockwashers when reassembling components to ensure safe and reliable equipment operation.
