Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which equipment brands are compatible with the BJ 054300 3-inch steel caster?
A: The BJ 054300 fits Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and similar electric pallet jack and forklift models with 3-inch diameter caster requirements. Always confirm your equipment model and caster pocket diameter before ordering.
Q: Why choose steel casters over rubber casters?
A: Steel casters like the BJ 054300 offer higher load capacity, durability on hard floors, precise steering control, and minimal rolling resistance. Steel is the standard for high-volume warehouse and dock operations. Rubber casters provide floor protection and wet surface traction.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of the BJ 054300?
A: Steel casters typically last 2 to 4 years under normal warehouse conditions. Lifespan depends on floor surface, usage frequency, and load weights. Replace when wheels become flat-spotted, cracked, or when caster body shows damage.
Q: What maintenance does the BJ 054300 steel caster require?
A: Steel casters require minimal maintenance. Periodically inspect for debris blocking wheel rotation, verify caster body bolts remain tight, and clean to prevent rust accumulation. Do not apply lubricants that attract dirt to the wheel assembly.
