BA Series Axles

The BA series axle assemblies are for mounting single wheels fitted with ball or roller bearings, the lock nut, lock washer, or self locking nuts and sleeve providing adjustment for opposed taper roller bearings. Axle diameter and hub width dimension should be selected to match the bearing bore and hub width of the wheel to be fitted. The slotted axle brackets, in conjunction with the extended major axle diameter and sleeve, allow a wide tolerance in the positioning of the brackets, and also allow the wheel to be positioned laterally between the brackets. The assembly is supplied complete with axle brackets, bearing retaining/adjustment nut and locking washer. Axle material: steel to BS970: Part 1: 1983: 606M36 or 605M36. The maximum load rating applies to gradually applied loads (for shock loads multiply by a shock loading factor of 0.65) and to radial loads only — where axial loads are to be applied in conjunction with radial loads, refer to Brauer for allowable loads.
