Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does 95D mean in the SU S393-XL part description?
A: 95D refers to the Shore durometer hardness rating of the polyurethane tread; 95D is significantly harder than softer formulations like EZ (90-93A). XL 95D wheels are designed for maximum durability on smooth warehouse concrete and resist wear, flat-spotting, and rolling resistance better than softer wheels. This makes them ideal for high-volume operation where long wheel life is prioritized.
Q: Is the SU S393-XL compatible with the same hub bore as the SU S393-EZ?
A: Yes. Both the S393-XL and S393-EZ are 9 x 5 wheels with the same 3.5433 inch hub bore diameter. They are mechanically interchangeable on the same axle. However, do not mix them on the same truck as a maintenance practice; use either all XL or all EZ wheels on one truck for consistent handling and wear characteristics.
Q: What load rating should I expect from the SU S393-XL?
A: The SU S393-XL itself does not have an independent load rating; the truck frame determines maximum capacity. The wheel is rated to support Class 2 electric lift trucks (typically 3000-5000 lb capacity). Do not exceed the lift truck manufactures maximum rated load. Overloading the truck stresses the wheel and accelerates failure.
Q: How do I install the SU S393-XL wheel on my truck?
A: Jack the truck frame with proper jack stands under frame rails. Remove the axle bolt and retainer clip. Slide the old wheel off the axle. Slide the new S393-XL wheel onto the axle, aligning the hub bore. Reinstall the axle bolt and retainer clip. Torque the bolt to 25-35 ft-lb (consult your truck manual for exact torque spec). Spin the wheel freely and confirm no excessive play before operating.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of the SU S393-XL under normal use?
A: The SU S393-XL typically lasts 3-5 years of standard warehouse use (4-6 hours daily on smooth concrete). Lifespan depends on floor condition, load consistency, and maintenance. Inspect every 6 months for flat-spotting, cracks, or hub wear. Replace if flat-spots exceed 0.25 inch, wheel becomes difficult to spin, or visible chunks are missing. Clean wheels monthly to remove abrasive dust.
