Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a lockwasher and why is it used on manual pallet jacks?
A: Lockwasher 02010-00008 is a split or toothed washer that prevents fasteners from loosening due to vibration and movement. On manual pallet jacks, it maintains tension on critical chassis, steering, and load-bearing fastener connections.
Q: Which manual pallet jack models use lockwasher 02010-00008?
A: This lockwasher is compatible with manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and other major manufacturers. Verify your equipment model before ordering to confirm fitment.
Q: How does a lockwasher differ from a flat washer?
A: A flat washer distributes load across fastening surfaces only. A lockwasher combines load distribution with spring tension that resists fastener loosening under vibration and dynamic loads. Use lockwashers on critical safety-related connections.
Q: What is the service life of lockwasher 02010-00008?
A: Lockwashers are designed for extended service life but lose effectiveness if deformed, flattened, or if the fastener is overtightened. Replace the lockwasher whenever you remove the fastener for any reason.
