POLYURETHANE WHEEL/BEARINGS
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the HP-282 polyurethane wheel assembly include?
A: The HP-282 is a polyurethane wheel assembly complete with bearings integrated into the assembly. The product includes the wheel, hub, and sealed bearings as a single replacement unit for manual pallet jacks.
Q: What bearing type comes with the HP-282?
A: The HP-282 features sealed bearings that provide maintenance-free operation and protection against contaminants. Sealed bearing design reduces friction and extends wheel life in warehouse and loading dock environments.
Q: Which pallet jack models are compatible with the HP-282?
A: The HP-282 polyurethane wheel is designed for standard manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and other manufacturers. Verify your equipment wheel diameter and axle bore size to confirm compatibility before ordering.
Q: Is the HP-282 suitable for wet or cold storage environments?
A: Polyurethane wheels provide good traction on wet floors and maintain flexibility in cold storage conditions. However, verify the specific polyurethane compound used in your HP-282. High-traction formulations offer enhanced performance in wet and freezer environments.
Q: What is the typical service life of the HP-282 wheel assembly?
A: In normal warehouse operation on smooth floors, polyurethane wheels typically last 3-7 years before tread wear becomes significant. Rough or abrasive surfaces, heavy loads, and high-mileage applications reduce wheel life. Sealed bearings do not require maintenance and typically last the life of the wheel.
