BEARING assembly (SINGLE SHIELD)
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does single shield mean on the ND7305 bearing assembly?
A: Single shield means one side of the bearing is covered with a protective metal or plastic guard while the other side remains open. This design provides moderate contamination protection while allowing one-side access for lubrication on manual pallet jacks and material handling equipment.
Q: Which manual pallet jack models use the ND7305 bearing assembly?
A: The ND7305 is compatible with manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster. It is commonly found in load wheel assemblies and lift linkage pivots. Confirm your equipment serial range matches ND7305 specifications before ordering.
Q: Is the ND7305 suitable for cold storage applications?
A: The ND7305 standard bearing assembly is not optimized for cold storage. For freezer environments below 20 degrees Fahrenheit, specify a bearing designed with low-temperature grease formulations. Contact us to verify cold storage compatibility for your specific model.
Q: What is the maintenance schedule for the ND7305?
A: Inspect the ND7305 every 250 operating hours or quarterly. Lubricate through the open side with bearing grease if the bearing remains accessible. Clean away debris and water ingress from the single shield side. Replace if you observe noise, roughness, or lateral play.
Q: What part numbers can replace the ND7305?
A: Cross-reference alternatives depend on internal dimensions, bore size, and shield configuration. The ND7505, ND7506, and ND7605 are single-shield variants from this product family. Verify bore diameter and outer diameter match your application before substituting.
Q: Can I use the ND7305 in wet floor environments?
A: The single shield offers limited water resistance. For wet or washdown environments, the shield side should face outward to minimize moisture ingress. Consider sealed or double-shield bearing alternatives if the jack operates in high-moisture conditions regularly.
