Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What diameter and thickness is lockwasher 273021300?
A: Lockwasher 273021300 is specified for use with fasteners on manual pallet jacks and material handling equipment. Verify the bolt diameter and thread size from your equipment manual before ordering. The washer thickness is sized to prevent bolt loosening under vibration and repeated use.
Q: What material is this lockwasher made from?
A: This lockwasher is typically made from hardened steel or stainless steel depending on the application. Steel lockwashers resist corrosion and maintain their spring tension under vibration, making them suitable for pallet jack wheels, handle assemblies, and load-bearing components.
Q: Which pallet jack equipment uses lockwasher 273021300?
A: This lockwasher fits manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and similar manufacturers. It is used on critical fastening points such as wheel assemblies, handle connections, and hydraulic valve mounts. Verify the bolt size and location on your specific pallet jack model before ordering.
Q: Do I need to replace lockwashers during routine maintenance?
A: Replace lockwashers if bolts repeatedly loosen or if inspection shows the washer is flattened and no longer gripping the bolt head. Most lockwashers last the life of the equipment if bolts are tightened to proper torque. Inspect and tighten loose bolts during scheduled maintenance to extend washer life.
