Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the Durarun 95A Poly Load Wheel designed for?
A: The Durarun 95A Poly Load Wheel is a polyurethane load wheel designed for electric lift trucks, ride-on electric pallet jacks, and electric hand pallet trucks. The 95A durometer rating indicates a medium-hard polyurethane compound suitable for most warehouse and light material handling environments.
Q: Which equipment brands does this load wheel fit?
A: This load wheel is compatible with multiple electric lift truck manufacturers including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and Yale models. Verify the wheel bore diameter and axle dimensions match your equipment before ordering, as different models may require different mounting specifications.
Q: How does polyurethane durometer rating affect wheel performance?
A: The 95A durometer rating indicates hardness on the Shore A scale. A 95A wheel provides good load capacity and wear resistance while maintaining reasonable grip on dry floors. Softer compounds (lower durometer) offer better traction but wear faster; harder compounds (higher durometer) last longer but may slip on wet surfaces.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of this polyurethane load wheel?
A: Lifespan depends on load weight, floor conditions, and operating hours. On standard warehouse floors with normal loads, a Durarun 95A wheel typically lasts 12 to 24 months. Heavy use on rough or concrete floors may reduce lifespan. Regular inspection for flat spots or cracks helps identify wear before failure.
Q: Can the Durarun 95A Poly Load Wheel be used on wet or cold storage floors?
A: The standard 95A polyurethane compound has reduced traction on wet floors and cold storage environments. For cold storage or wet floor applications, specify a high-traction polyurethane wheel variant, which is formulated for improved grip in those conditions.
Q: What maintenance does this load wheel require?
A: Inspect the wheel regularly for flat spots, uneven wear, cracking, or debris buildup. Keep the wheel bore and axle connection clean. Store in a dry location away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, as exposure can degrade polyurethane over time. Replace when wear reaches 50% of original thickness or visible damage appears.
