Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the RA 1043403/005 locknut specification?
A: The RA 1043403/005 is an OEM Grade 8 carbon steel locknut with M12 x 1.75 mm right-hand thread and phosphate coating. This part number format using a slash indicates the same specification as RA 1043403-005, but verify your documentation format when ordering to ensure correct receipt.
Q: Is RA 1043403/005 the same as RA 1043403-005?
A: These part numbers reference the same OEM locknut component with identical specifications. The difference is notation format: one uses a hyphen (RA 1043403-005) and the other uses a slash (RA 1043403/005). Always confirm which format your equipment documentation specifies when ordering.
Q: What equipment does the RA 1043403/005 locknut fit?
A: This locknut is used in load wheel assemblies on Raymond electric lift trucks and pallet jacks where M12 x 1.75 mm fastening is specified. Confirm your equipment uses M12 fasteners and requires OEM Grade 8 specification before ordering.
Q: Can I substitute this locknut with a standard commercial grade locknut?
A: No. The RA 1043403/005 is OEM Grade 8 specified for high-load applications. Standard commercial locknuts have lower tensile strength and may not provide adequate vibration resistance in material handling equipment. Use only OEM-specified Grade 8 locknuts for load wheel retention.
