310172-035

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What construction method does the 310172-035 use?
A: The 310172-035 features a high-durability polyurethane tread (Shore 95A hardness) bonded to a machined steel core. This construction combines the wear resistance and load-bearing capability of steel with the vibration dampening and floor protection of polyurethane, reducing noise and extending component life.

Q: Does the 310172-035 have sealed bearings?
A: Yes, the 310172-035 comes with pre-installed precision sealed ball bearings. The sealed design protects against dust, debris, and moisture ingress, extending bearing life and reducing maintenance requirements in typical warehouse and material handling conditions.

Q: Which lift truck positions is the 310172-035 designed for?
A: The 310172-035 is optimized for load wheel positions on electric lift truck models. Load wheels differ from guide wheels and drive wheels in their mounting location and load distribution. Confirm your truck documentation to ensure this wheel is specified for your equipment position and model.

Q: What are the performance characteristics of the 310172-035?
A: The 310172-035 is engineered for smooth, quiet operation with excellent abrasion resistance during extended warehouse use. The sealed bearing design reduces rolling resistance and friction-related wear. The 95A Shore hardness provides load-bearing strength while the polyurethane tread resists scoring and marking on finished floors.

Q: What OEM brands are compatible with the 310172-035?
A: The 310172-035 fits electric lift trucks from manufacturers including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and similar OEM brands. Fitment depends on your specific model year and wheel bore diameter. Verify the equipment manufacturer and model number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
