Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is GWK-P33-LW compatible with all Big Joe P33 serial numbers or specific ranges?
A: GWK-P33-LW fits Big Joe P33 electric and semi-electric pallet jacks across most production years. However, verify your jack serial number before ordering. Early P33 models (pre-2010) may have different wheel mount specifications. Check your jack nameplate located on the frame near the steering column. If your serial number does not begin with P33, contact Big Joe directly or provide a photo of the nameplate to confirm compatibility.
Q: What is the 95A durometer rating and how does it affect performance?
A: 95A Shore durometer measures polyurethane hardness on a scale where higher numbers indicate harder material. 95A wheels provide a balance between durability and grip. They resist puncture and flat spotting better than softer compounds (80-90A) but grip slightly less on slippery floors. For rough concrete or abrasive surfaces, 95A performs well. For polished floors or external use in rain, consider a softer compound. GWK-P33-LW is ideal for most warehouse and light manufacturing environments.
Q: Can I mix GWK-P33-LW with my existing worn wheels or must all four be replaced?
A: Replace all four wheels at the same time. Mixing new and worn wheels creates uneven load distribution and causes the jack to pull to one side during operation. Worn wheels also have smaller effective diameter than new wheels, leading to binding and bearing strain. Replacing all four ensures smooth steering and even load weight across the platform. Plan maintenance accordingly.
Q: Does GWK-P33-LW include the hardened steel axles or are those ordered separately?
A: GWK-P33-LW is a complete wheel assembly kit that includes hardened steel axle shafts, ball bearings, and all mounting hardware. No additional parts are needed for installation. The kit is designed for direct bolt-on replacement. Inspect the existing mounting points on your jack before installation to ensure they are not damaged or rusted. If the axle mounting holes are stripped or corroded, have them repaired before installing new wheels.
Q: What is the lifespan of GWK-P33-LW wheels under normal warehouse use?
A: GWK-P33-LW wheels typically last 2 to 4 years in normal warehouse environments with daily use. Lifespan depends on floor surface, load weight, and operator technique. Rough concrete shortens life. Smooth polished floors extend it. Overloading or aggressive turning accelerates wear. Inspect wheels every 6 months for damage and tread loss. Replace when tread wears to 0.25 inch depth or when damage appears. Proper maintenance of bearings and axles extends wheel life.
Q: Is GWK-P33-LW equivalent to any other brand wheel kits for compatibility purposes?
A: GWK-P33-LW is specific to Big Joe P33 models and does not directly cross-reference to competitor brands like Yale, Crown, or Hyster. However, if you need an equivalent for a different brand, contact the parts supplier with your jack model and serial number. Some third-party manufacturers produce compatible wheels with different SKUs. Always verify wheel diameter, width, and mounting configuration match your jack specifications before ordering.
