Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What BT pallet jack models does the GWK-BTL-LW load wheel kit fit?
A: The GWK-BTL-LW fits BT L-2000, L-2300, L-2000-U, L-2300-U, LHM-230, and LMH-230 models. Verify your model number on the jack nameplate. Note that this is a load wheel kit only and does not include steer wheels.
Q: What material and specifications define the load wheels?
A: The GWK-BTL-LW includes two black Ultra-Polyurethane 70 Shore D durometer load wheels with precision ball bearings in sealed construction. The sealed bearings resist contamination and extend service life. The 70D compound provides exceptional durability and resists shattering compared to standard 92A wheels.
Q: Are these wheels non-marking and safe for finished floors?
A: Yes. These wheels are specifically designed with a non-marking formulation and will not scuff, mark, or leave residue on finished concrete, tile, display floors, or sealed warehouse surfaces. They roll smoothly and quietly, making them ideal for retail and sensitive floor environments.
Q: What tools and steps are required for installation?
A: Installation requires a socket wrench or hex key to remove old axle fasteners and a torque wrench to secure new wheels to the specified torque value from your jack manual, typically 15 to 25 foot-pounds. Remove the jack load completely before removing old wheels. Thread the new axles through the mounting brackets and tighten fasteners securely. Verify wheels spin freely without wobbling or binding.
Q: How can I diagnose if my load wheels need replacement?
A: Signs of wear include flat spots or facets on the wheel surface, visible cracks or spalling, uneven wear patterns, or a reduction in wheel diameter of more than 1/8 inch. If the jack becomes difficult to push smoothly, rolls unevenly, or makes grinding noises, replace the wheels immediately. Worn wheels reduce load capacity and operator safety.
