Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What material is the CL 1806276-ST tread made from?
A: The CL 1806276-ST features a high-wear black polyurethane tread bonded to an injection-molded nylon hub. Black polyurethane formulations typically provide better resistance to abrasion and UV exposure compared to standard polyurethane, making this wheel suitable for extended outdoor or high-traffic warehouse environments.
Q: Is the CL 1806276-ST a direct replacement for my Clark manual pallet jack?
A: The CL 1806276-ST is designed as a direct-fit replacement for Clark manual pallet jacks. Verify that your jack model is listed in Clark compatibility documentation and that the hub bore and axle diameter match specification. Standard hub and axle configurations are required for proper fitment.
Q: What makes the nylon hub durable for long-term use?
A: The injection-molded nylon hub provides high load-bearing capacity and reduces rolling resistance compared to steel hubs. Nylon also offers resistance to corrosion and moisture absorption, extending service life in humid or wet warehouse environments. The hub geometry is optimized to support standard manual pallet jack axle loads.
Q: How long does the CL 1806276-ST typically last in normal warehouse use?
A: High-wear polyurethane wheels typically perform for 12 to 18 months in standard warehouse service. Extended service life occurs in lower-cycle operations or climate-controlled environments. Inspect tread for wear, checking that minimum thickness remains above 0.25 inches. Replace if the wheel loses roundness or develops flat spots.
Q: What floor conditions is the CL 1806276-ST best suited for?
A: The high-wear black polyurethane tread performs well on standard concrete and polished warehouse floors. It provides moderate grip in slightly wet conditions but is not designed for heavy water exposure. For cold storage or wet floor applications, consider wheels with EZ compound formulations which offer enhanced traction in those environments.
Q: Can I clean the CL 1806276-ST wheel with standard warehouse cleaning products?
A: Clean the wheel assembly with water and a soft brush to remove dust and debris. Avoid aggressive solvents, degreasers, or harsh chemicals that can degrade the polyurethane tread bond or nylon hub finish. Do not use high-pressure washers directly on the wheel assembly.
