Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the CT 971740 and CT 971749?
A: Both are polyurethane wheels for Caterpillar electric lift trucks. They may differ in diameter, bore size, or durometer hardness rating. Verify your current wheel specifications and equipment model to determine which part applies.
Q: What equipment models use the CT 971749 wheel?
A: The CT 971749 is engineered for specific Caterpillar electric pallet jack and lift truck applications. Confirm your equipment serial number and model before ordering to ensure compatibility.
Q: Is the CT 971749 suitable for cold storage applications?
A: Yes. The CT 971749 polyurethane wheel maintains traction and durability in cold storage and wet floor environments. Polyurethane resists the hardening that occurs with rubber in freezing conditions.
Q: What are the specifications for the CT 971749?
A: The CT 971749 is a polyurethane wheel assembly component. For exact dimensions, bore size, and durometer rating, provide your equipment model number or the current wheel diameter. This ensures you receive the correct specification.
Q: How do I know when the CT 971749 needs replacement?
A: Replace the wheel if you observe flat spots, cracks, chunks missing from the tread, uneven wear patterns, or if the truck pulls to one side. Visible damage or diameter loss of more than one-eighth inch indicates replacement is necessary.
