Polyurethane Drive Tire and Hub Assembly

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the material specifications for the A0000-23308 drive tire and hub assembly?
A: The A0000-23308 features a machined steel hub core with a polyurethane tread rated at 90 Shore A hardness. The non-marking polyurethane compound prevents floor marking while providing durable drive contact on electric pallet trucks and lift trucks.

Q: What does 90 Shore A hardness mean for this tire?
A: 90 Shore A hardness indicates a moderate polyurethane compound that balances durability and floor grip. This hardness resists wear in standard warehouse use while maintaining traction on dry and lightly damp floors.

Q: Does the A0000-23308 have a non-marking tread?
A: Yes, the A0000-23308 uses a non-marking polyurethane tread designed to minimize floor marking in typical warehouse environments. However, heavy loads, extended contact, or wet floors may cause some discoloration.

Q: How do I verify compatibility before purchasing the A0000-23308?
A: Check your equipment documentation or the existing drive tire assembly for part number A0000-23308 or equivalent cross-references. Verify the hub and bolt pattern match this assembly. Contact us with your equipment model and serial number if you need confirmation.

Q: What is the expected service life of this drive tire assembly?
A: Lifespan depends on load, operating hours, floor conditions, and maintenance. Non-marking polyurethane tires typically provide 12-24 months of reliable service under standard warehouse conditions. Regular inspection for wear and floor grip degradation is recommended.

Q: Can the A0000-23308 be used on both drive and steer axles?
A: This assembly is engineered as a drive tire configuration. Verify your equipment specification before use to ensure proper axle application.
