Load Wheel, Premium Soft
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does Premium Soft mean for the CL L500130 load wheel?
A: The CL L500130 is designated as a Premium Soft load wheel, indicating a lower durometer polyurethane compound compared to standard XL or XH grades. Soft compound wheels provide better traction and floor grip, making them suitable for smooth concrete and polished floors.
Q: What Clark lift truck equipment does the CL L500130 fit?
A: The CL L500130 Premium Soft load wheel is designed for Clark electric lift trucks. Confirm your equipment model matches this part specification by checking your lift truck documentation or cross-referencing your current wheel part number.
Q: When should I use a Premium Soft wheel versus a harder compound?
A: Use the Premium Soft CL L500130 in applications requiring maximum traction and grip on smooth or newly sealed floors. Softer compounds wear faster under heavy use and rough floors but provide superior performance in light to moderate duty warehouse environments.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of this Premium Soft wheel?
A: Premium Soft polyurethane wheels typically wear faster than harder compound wheels due to their lower durometer rating. Lifespan varies based on load intensity, floor conditions, and daily usage. Regular inspection for wear patterns will indicate replacement timing.
Q: Can I mix Premium Soft wheels with harder compound wheels on my lift truck?
A: Mixing different wheel durometers on the same lift truck can cause uneven rolling resistance and steering inconsistencies. For optimal handling and safety, replace all load wheels as a matched set with the same compound type and condition.
