Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does the BI MEC B2000132 load wheel fit?
A: The BI MEC B2000132 is a load wheel designed for electric and manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Hyster, Yale, and Jungheinrich. Load wheels support the fork assembly and carry the primary load. Verify the bore size, width, and hub configuration match your equipment before ordering.
Q: How is the load wheel different from a caster wheel?
A: Load wheels support the main load and are typically mounted under the fork arms or load carriage. Casters are directional wheels at the steer end. Load wheels must support higher loads and handle rough floors. Always install the correct wheel type in the correct location.
Q: What is the load capacity of the BI MEC B2000132 load wheel?
A: Load wheel capacity depends on diameter, material, and bearing design. The BI MEC B2000132 is rated for typical manual pallet jack loads. Verify the load rating in your equipment documentation. Overloading causes wheel failure, bearing wear, and potential load drops.
Q: What wheel material is the BI MEC B2000132 made from?
A: The BI MEC B2000132 load wheel material affects durability and floor grip. Polyurethane wheels provide excellent wear resistance and are suitable for outdoor and rough floor use. Nylon wheels work on clean warehouse floors and have lower cost. Confirm the material specification for your equipment environment.
Q: How do I know when to replace the BI MEC B2000132 load wheel?
A: Replace the load wheel when you observe flat spots, cracks, material chunks missing, or excessive runout during rotation. Worn wheels reduce load stability and increase bearing stress. Load wheels on equipment used on rough floors or outdoors wear faster and require more frequent inspection.
Q: What is the bore size and hub configuration of the BI MEC B2000132?
A: The bore size and hub type determine if the wheel fits your axle. The BI MEC B2000132 has a specific bore diameter and may have tapered or straight hub design. Measure your equipment axle or provide the equipment model and serial range for exact specification confirmation.
