Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the 0000-72008 and a braked caster?
A: The 0000-72008 is a fixed caster without brake mechanism. A braked caster includes an integral locking brake for equipment requiring brake actuation. These are not interchangeable. Verify your equipment specifications before ordering to ensure you select the correct caster type.
Q: Which pallet jack models are compatible with the 0000-72008?
A: The 0000-72008 fits manual pallet jacks and material handling equipment from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and similar manufacturers designed for non-braked caster operation. Always confirm bolt hole spacing and attachment diameter against your specific equipment documentation before ordering.
Q: Can I retrofit a braked caster onto equipment using the 0000-72008?
A: Retrofitting a braked caster requires compatible equipment frame design and steering linkage capable of accommodating brake actuation. Equipment engineered for non-braked operation cannot be safely modified for braked operation without structural redesign. Use only the caster type specified for your equipment model.
Q: What maintenance does the 0000-72008 require?
A: Inspect the wheel regularly for wear, flat spots, or material loss. Clean debris from the wheel and swivel bearing area. No brake adjustment is required. Replace the caster when wheel damage affects floor contact or rolling performance.
Q: What wheel materials and sizes does the 0000-72008 come in?
A: The 0000-72008 is available with wheel materials such as polyurethane or nylon. Material selection affects durability, noise level, and floor compatibility. Verify exact wheel specifications for your equipment model to ensure correct and material match.
