Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the BJ 500935 poly drive tire assembly?
A: The 500935 is a factory-spec polyurethane drive tire assembly designed for electric pallet jacks and lift trucks. It is a complete traction wheel rated at 97-A durometer, providing both propulsion and steering control in the primary drive position.
Q: What does the 97-A durometer rating mean?
A: The 97-A durometer specification indicates polyurethane compound hardness on the Shore A scale. A 97-A rating provides high traction and load-bearing capability while maintaining good wear resistance for standard warehouse operations.
Q: What material is the BJ 500935 made from?
A: The 500935 features a polyurethane tire compound bonded to a steel hub. Polyurethane delivers superior floor grip, chemical resistance, and durability compared to rubber in warehouse environments.
Q: How does the 500935 perform on wet or cold storage floors?
A: Polyurethane tires at 97-A durometer perform well on wet floors and maintain traction in cold storage environments. Verify floor surface conditions against product specifications to ensure safe equipment operation.
Q: How long does the BJ 500935 tire typically last?
A: Polyurethane tires like the 500935 typically last 24 to 48 months in standard warehouse operations. Lifespan varies based on daily cycle count, floor surface type, and environmental conditions. High-intensity use or rough flooring reduces durability.
Q: Can I use the 500935 on different electric pallet jack brands?
A: Compatibility requires matching hub bore, axle diameter, and overall tire dimensions with your equipment. Verify your pallet jack or lift truck specifications before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
