Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the specifications of the 80A polyurethane wheel?
A: The 80A features a high-grade 95A Shore A durometer polyurethane tread bonded to a machined steel core. It is equipped with sealed ball bearings sized for the bore axle standard used on manual pallet jacks. The wheel is designed as a load-bearing component for standard pallet truck applications.
Q: Which manufacturers produce pallet jacks compatible with the 80A wheel?
A: The 80A wheel is compatible with manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and Yale that use standard bore axles with sealed ball bearings. Verify your equipment axle bore diameter and bearing type before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Q: What does the 95A Shore A durometer rating indicate?
A: The 95A Shore A durometer measures the hardness of the polyurethane tread compound. This rating provides an optimal balance between load capacity and traction on standard warehouse floors. Softer compounds wear faster; harder compounds reduce grip. The 95A specification is standard for general-purpose load wheel applications.
Q: What is the typical service life of the 80A wheel?
A: The 80A wheel typically lasts 2 to 4 years depending on load weight, floor surface conditions, and operating hours. Wheels on high-traffic routes or rough floors wear faster. Replace the wheel when the tread is visibly worn flat or when steering becomes erratic.
Q: How does the 80A perform on wet or cold storage floors?
A: The 80A is rated for standard warehouse applications. For wet floors or cold storage environments, consider a wheel with enhanced traction polyurethane compound, which provides superior grip in slippery conditions. Store wheels in a dry location away from direct sunlight to prevent premature degradation.
Q: Are sealed bearings maintenance-free?
A: Sealed ball bearings in the 80A require minimal maintenance. The seal prevents most contaminants from entering, reducing lubrication requirements compared to open bearings. Periodically inspect for smooth rotation and replace the wheel if bearings become noisy or grinding develops.
