Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does the BI B2000152 caster with brake fit?
A: The BI B2000152 is a fixed caster with brake designed for manual pallet jacks and material handling equipment from manufacturers including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and Yale. Verify the bolt hole spacing and diameter against your equipment before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
Q: What are the key specifications for the BI B2000152?
A: The BI B2000152 is a braked fixed caster assembly. Verify the wheel diameter, load capacity rating, bolt pattern, and brake actuation type match your equipment requirements. Contact our sales team with your equipment model or photos for exact dimension confirmation.
Q: How does the brake on the BI B2000152 compare to a non-braked caster?
A: The BI B2000152 includes an integral brake mechanism that holds the jack stationary when engaged. A braked caster is required on equipment designed for braked operation. Using a non-braked caster on brake-equipped equipment will result in failure and potential safety hazards. Always match the caster type to your equipment design.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of the BI B2000152 caster?
A: Caster lifespan depends on load cycles, floor conditions, and maintenance. Wheel wear accelerates on rough or debris-laden floors. Inspect the wheel regularly for flat spots, cracks, or material loss. Replace the caster when wheel damage is visible or when brake function degrades.
Q: What wheel material options are available for the BI B2000152?
A: The BI B2000152 wheel material affects durability and floor compatibility. Polyurethane wheels provide better grip and floor protection. Nylon wheels offer lower cost and work on most floor types. Verify the material specification on your equipment to ensure compatibility with your operational environment.
