PM 01.11

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the PM 01.11 frame bushing made of?
A: The PM 01.11 is an OEM specification nylon sleeve bushing. It has a plain nylon finish with no secondary coating. This material provides self-lubricating properties and low friction pivot support for manual pallet jack frame assemblies.

Q: What equipment does the PM 01.11 bushing fit?
A: The PM 01.11 is designed as a frame bushing for Palletmaster HSW manual pallet jacks. It functions as an OEM replacement component for the pivot support assembly.

Q: How long does a nylon bushing typically last?
A: Nylon bushings are durable self-lubricating components that typically last several years under normal operating conditions. Lifespan depends on load frequency, pivot cycles, lubrication practices, and environmental conditions. Cold storage or heavy-use environments may reduce service life.

Q: What are the signs that the PM 01.11 bushing needs replacement?
A: Replace the bushing if you notice binding or resistance during pivot operation, visible wear grooves on the inner diameter, clicking or clunking sounds during lifting, or excessive lateral play in the load wheel assembly. A worn bushing can cause misalignment and accelerate wear to the pivot axle.

Q: Can a nylon bushing be lubricated to extend service life?
A: Nylon is self-lubricating and does not require additional lubrication. Adding grease or oil to a nylon bushing can attract dirt and actually accelerate wear. Keep the pivot area clean and dry for optimal bushing performance.
