Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the dimensions and material of the 077984-070-01 tire?
A: It features a soft rubber compound designed for superior traction and grip compared to standard polyurethane wheels.
Q: How does soft rubber compare to polyurethane tires?
A: Soft rubber provides superior grip and shock absorption on rough warehouse floors and uneven concrete. Polyurethane tires offer lower rolling resistance on smooth, clean floors. Choose soft rubber for rough floors or outdoor dock areas; choose polyurethane for smooth, clean warehouse environments.
Q: Is this tire suitable for wet floors or cold storage?
A: Soft rubber provides better traction than standard polyurethane on most surfaces. For specialized applications in wet floors or cold storage below 40 degrees Fahrenheit, verify that this tire meets your specific facility requirements. Contact us if your application involves freezer environments or regular water exposure.
Q: How long does the soft rubber tire last?
A: On rough warehouse floors with heavy cycling, expect 3-5 years of service. Soft rubber wears faster than polyurethane on smooth, clean floors due to increased friction. Replace when the tire shows significant wear, crumbles at the edges, or no longer provides adequate traction.
Q: Which Crown equipment models are compatible with this tire?
A: The 077984-070-01 fits Crown electric pallet jacks and rider lift trucks. Verify your Crown model and frame type in your equipment documentation before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
