Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the exact dimensions of the BS 8505 2RS bearing?
A: The BS 8505 2RS is a precision ball bearing with extended inner rings. Outer diameter is 2.047 inches (52 mm), inner diameter is 0.984 inches (25 mm), and width is 0.669 inches (17 mm). The 2RS designation indicates dual rubber seals for contamination protection.
Q: What does the 2RS seal type mean on the BS 8505 2RS?
A: 2RS means the bearing has two rubber seals (one on each side of the bearing assembly). These seals provide protection against water, dust, and debris while retaining factory lubrication. This makes the BS 8505 2RS suitable for wet environments and cold storage applications.
Q: Which equipment brands and models use the BS 8505 2RS bearing?
A: The BS 8505 2RS fits electric pallet jacks, load wheels, and steering assemblies from brands including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Linde, and similar material handling equipment. The extended inner rings provide mounting flexibility across multiple OEM platforms.
Q: How do I verify the BS 8505 2RS is the correct bearing for my pallet jack?
A: Measure the bore (inner diameter) and outer diameter of your current bearing or the mounting shaft and housing. The BS 8505 2RS has a 0.984 inch (25 mm) bore and 2.047 inch (52 mm) outer diameter. Cross-reference your equipment model number in the original parts diagram to confirm.
Q: What is the typical service life of the BS 8505 2RS bearing?
A: With proper maintenance and lubrication, sealed precision ball bearings like the BS 8505 2RS typically last 3 to 7 years in material handling service. Life expectancy increases in light-duty applications and decreases under heavy load, moisture exposure, or contamination.
