Q: When should I choose a steel load wheel over polyurethane?
A: Choose solid steel load wheels like the BA 984842-S for maximum durability in high-frequency, heavy-load environments. Steel wheels resist wear and deformation better than polyurethane but may track differently on wet or polished floors compared to polymer compounds.
Q: How does the BA 984842-S compare to other Baker load wheel options?
A: The BA 984842-S is a solid steel option. Baker also offers polyurethane load wheels such as BA 985189 (standard 97A hardness) and BA 985189-XL (high-durometer XL compound). Steel is heavier but more durable; polyurethane offers better traction and floor protection.
