Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 12252 load wheel?
A: The 12252 is a load wheel assembly designed for BT electric lift trucks and reach trucks. This wheel carries the primary weight of the load during picking and stacking operations, typically mounted on the front carriage of the truck.
Q: Which BT electric lift truck models use the 12252 load wheel?
A: The 12252 is compatible with multiple BT electric lift truck models. Verify your specific truck model and serial range against the BT parts compatibility chart to confirm fitment before ordering.
Q: What material is the 12252 made from?
A: The 12252 is constructed with a polyurethane or elastomer tread bonded to a cast or fabricated steel hub. This combination provides durability, load-bearing capacity, and reliable rolling performance.
Q: What is the load capacity of the 12252 load wheel?
A: Load capacity depends on the truck model and axle configuration. Contact us with your specific equipment details for rated capacity specifications from BT documentation.
Q: When should the 12252 load wheel be replaced?
A: Replace the load wheel if the tread is worn flat, excessively scored, or cracked; if the wheel wobbles or does not roll smoothly; or if the hub is cracked or damaged. Worn load wheels reduce braking efficiency and stability.
Q: How should the 12252 be stored?
A: Store in a dry, temperature-controlled environment away from direct sunlight and extreme heat. Keep away from solvents and oils that may damage the elastomer tread material.
