Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 850-137-768 skid bar and what does it do?
A: The 850-137-768 is a carbon steel skid bar undercarriage component for Raymond electric pallet jacks. This high-strength part is integrated into the frame assembly of Raymond model 101 walkie trucks. The skid bar provides structural reinforcement and load distribution support throughout the equipment frame.
Q: What material is this skid bar manufactured from?
A: The 850-137-768 is fabricated from high-strength carbon steel. This material provides excellent durability and impact resistance for warehouse floor operations. Carbon steel construction delivers the strength needed for repeated lifting and material handling cycles.
Q: Which Raymond models is this skid bar compatible with?
A: The 850-137-768 is designed for Raymond model 101 electric walkie pallet truck frame applications. Direct part number matching confirms compatibility. Verify your truck model is 101 before ordering this component.
Q: Are there alternative part number references for this skid bar?
A: This part is referenced as RA 850-137-768, RA850-137-768, Raymond 850-137-768, and 850-137-768. All reference the same skid bar assembly. Use any of these cross-references when ordering or researching compatibility.
Q: What environmental conditions affect the lifespan of this carbon steel component?
A: High-strength carbon steel can corrode in wet or humid environments and in cold storage applications. Exposure to moisture, salt, or chemical residue accelerates corrosion. Regular cleaning and inspection extend service life. Replace the skid bar if rust perforation or structural thinning is visible.
Q: What failure symptoms indicate a skid bar needs replacement?
A: Signs of failure include cracks, bending, rust perforation holes, or loose welds at attachment points. If the truck frame feels unstable or rocks side-to-side, the skid bar may be damaged. Uneven tire wear can also indicate a bent skid bar affecting frame geometry.
