Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What equipment does this load wheel fit?
A: This is a direct replacement load wheel assembly designed for Wesco manual pallet jacks, model 270288. Verify your equipment matches this model before ordering to ensure proper fitment.

Q: What materials are used in this load wheel?
A: The wheel features a 70D polyurethane tread bonded to a steel hub. The 70D hardness rating provides durability and traction for general material handling applications without excessive wear.

Q: When should I replace this load wheel?
A: Replace the wheel when the tread shows significant wear, flattening, chunks missing, or when the wheel no longer rolls smoothly. A worn wheel reduces load stability and increases strain on the axle and frame.

A: This wheel is specified for Wesco equipment model 270288. Cross-compatibility with other manufacturers depends on matching hub bore diameter, axle dimensions, and load rating. Check your equipment documentation to confirm specifications before ordering.

Q: How should this load wheel be stored?
A: Store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight, extreme heat, and ozone-generating equipment. Avoid stacking heavy items on the wheel, which can cause permanent deformation of the polyurethane tread.
