Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the SK-203-94 bearing cone used for?
A: The SK-203-94 is a tapered bearing cone for manual pallet jack tilt and load wheel assemblies. Tapered roller bearings use separate cones and cups to support radial and thrust loads in material handling equipment.
Q: What pallet jack models is the SK-203-94 bearing cone compatible with?
A: This bearing cone fits manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and similar manufacturers that use tapered roller bearing assemblies. Verify the cone bore diameter matches your bearing cup before ordering.
Q: What material is the SK-203-94 bearing cone manufactured from?
A: The SK-203-94 is manufactured from SAE 52100 bearing steel hardened and precision-ground to tight tolerances. This material provides durability under the combined radial and thrust loads typical in pallet jack wheel assemblies.
Q: How do I know when the SK-203-94 bearing cone needs replacement?
A: Replace the bearing cone when you observe grinding or rumbling from the wheel assembly, visible wear or scoring on the cone surface, or excessive play in the load wheel. Tapered bearings should always be replaced in matching cone and cup pairs.
Q: Does the SK-203-94 require a matching bearing cup?
A: Yes. Tapered roller bearings must be installed as a matched cone and cup assembly. Never use a cone from one bearing series with a cup from another, as this will cause rapid failure and unsafe load handling.
