Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the dimensions of the BS 6006 2RS bearing?
A: The BS 6006 2RS has an outer diameter of 2.165 inches (55mm), inner diameter of 1.181 inches (30mm), and width of 0.512 inches (13mm). This is a standard deep groove ball bearing size used in load wheels and main drive bearings across multiple pallet jack models.
Q: What does the 2RS designation mean?
A: The 2RS designation indicates two rubber seals, one on each side of the bearing. These seals protect the internal rolling elements from dust, moisture, and contamination while retaining the factory-packed grease. The 2RS design is optimal for warehouse, outdoor, and humid environments.
Q: Which equipment types does the BS 6006 2RS bearing fit?
A: The BS 6006 2RS fits manual pallet jacks, electric pallet jacks, load carts, and other material handling equipment with 30mm bore load wheels. Compatible with Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Jungheinrich, Linde, and other OEM equipment. Verify bore and outer diameter match your specific model before ordering.
Q: What is the material and finish of the BS 6006 2RS?
A: The BS 6006 2RS is made from chrome steel with dual rubber seals. The chrome steel provides corrosion resistance in wet and cold storage environments. The rubber seals offer superior protection compared to metal shields, reducing contamination ingress and extending bearing life.
Q: How long does the BS 6006 2RS bearing typically last in a pallet jack?
A: With normal warehouse use, the BS 6006 2RS typically provides 3-5 years of service life. Heavier loads, continuous operation, and exposure to extreme cold storage or moisture may reduce lifespan. Monitor for noise, grinding sensations, or resistance to rotation as signs of wear.
Q: Can I interchange BS 6006 2RS with BS 6006 1RS or ZZ variants?
A: Yes, if bore and outer diameter match. The 2RS variant with dual rubber seals is preferred for wet and dusty environments. Single seal (1RS) and metal shield (ZZ) variants may be used in dry or high-speed applications. Confirm bearing housing depth before substituting to avoid seal contact with adjacent parts.
