Q: What is the diameter and material of the BT 12356?
A: The BT 12356 is an 8-inch diameter wheel manufactured from molded nylon. The single-piece molded construction provides durability, smooth rolling action, and low rolling resistance compared to rubber or polyurethane alternatives.
Q: Does the BT 12356 have sealed bearings and what is the benefit?
A: Yes, the BT 12356 incorporates integrated sealed ball bearings. Sealed bearings reduce friction, ensure smooth swivel action for steering, minimize maintenance requirements, and protect against dirt and moisture ingress.
Q: When should the BT 12356 steer wheel be replaced?
A: Replace the steer wheel if the nylon tread is worn smooth or cracked, if the wheel does not swivel freely, if bearings are loose or noisy, or if the wheel is visibly deformed. A worn steer wheel reduces maneuverability and operator control.
Q: Is the BT 12356 suitable for use in cold storage or wet floor environments?
A: Nylon wheels like the BT 12356 maintain flexibility in cold storage environments and perform well on wet or slippery floors due to the material properties of molded nylon. This makes it suitable for diverse warehouse conditions.
