Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the VJ 446 spring used for in a pallet jack?
A: The VJ 446 is a mechanical spring component that provides tension and restoring force in the pallet jack hydraulic or lift mechanism. It helps control descent speed and maintains system responsiveness during raising and lowering cycles.
Q: Which Valu-Jack models does the VJ 446 spring fit?
A: The VJ 446 spring is compatible with Valu-Jack model KD5500 manual pallet jacks. Match your equipment model number to ensure correct fit and function before ordering.
Q: What material is the VJ 446 spring made from?
A: The VJ 446 is manufactured from high-carbon or alloy steel that resists fatigue and stress corrosion. This material choice ensures the spring maintains consistent tension through thousands of lift cycles.
Q: When should I replace the VJ 446 spring?
A: Replace the VJ 446 if the pallet jack loses lifting speed, fails to lower smoothly, or if you observe physical damage such as bending, cracks, or permanent deformation. A weakened spring compromises equipment performance and operator control.
