PM200318

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the PM200318 bearing assembly designed for?
A: The PM200318 is a sealed bearing assembly for manual pallet jack wheel systems. It integrates into load wheel and steer wheel assemblies for Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Jungheinrich, Linde, Clark, and equivalent manual pallet jacks. Verify your exact model before ordering.

Q: What bearing material and sealing design does the PM200318 use?
A: The PM200318 is constructed from high carbon chromium bearing steel with sealed, precision deep groove ball bearing design. The sealed construction protects against moisture and dust, making it suitable for wet floors, cold storage, and outdoor loading dock applications.

Q: Does the PM200318 come pre-lubricated, and what ongoing maintenance is needed?
A: The PM200318 is factory pre-lubricated and sealed, requiring no additional lubrication after installation. Inspect the wheel assembly periodically during normal operation for noise or resistance. If you detect binding or grinding, the bearing should be replaced.

Q: How long can the PM200318 bearing assembly operate before replacement?
A: Under normal manual pallet jack duty cycles, the PM200318 typically operates for 3 to 5 years. Actual service life depends on daily load cycles, floor conditions, temperature environment, and maintenance practices. Replace when wheel noise or increased friction develops.

Q: Is the PM200318 suitable for both high-traffic and cold storage warehouse applications?
A: Yes, the PM200318 sealed bearing is designed for general material handling duty including cold storage environments. The sealed construction provides protection against moisture and temperature fluctuations. Verify that your jack model is rated for the temperature environment where it will operate.
