Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 0000-000420-00 bearing used for?
A: The 0000-000420-00 is a double shielded ball bearing used in load wheel and fork assemblies on electric lift trucks and pallet jacks. It provides radial and axial load support in rotating wheel applications.
Q: What does double shielded mean?
A: Double shielded indicates the ball bearing has protective covers on both sides. These shields retain internal grease, reduce contamination ingress, and extend bearing life in material handling environments.
Q: Can the 0000-000420-00 be relubricated?
A: No. The double shielded design is sealed and not designed for field relubrication. Once the internal grease is depleted, the bearing must be replaced.
Q: What symptoms indicate bearing replacement is needed?
A: Replace the bearing if you observe increased wheel noise, grinding sounds from the load wheel, excessive wheel drag, wheel wobble, or loss of lift height at normal load. These symptoms indicate internal bearing damage.
Q: How should the bearing be stored before use?
A: Store the bearing in a cool, dry location away from moisture and contaminants. Keep the protective shields intact until installation to prevent grease contamination and debris ingress.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of this bearing?
A: Lifespan depends on operating conditions, load distribution, and maintenance. Under normal material handling duty with proper equipment maintenance, this bearing provides extended service life.
