Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the physical dimensions and material specifications of the HY 2081800?
A: The HY 2081800 measures 3.25 x 4.50 inches and features 95A durometer polyurethane tread. It includes shielded ball bearings and integrated string guards. The 95A hardness rating provides balanced wear resistance and floor grip for general warehouse applications.
Q: Which Hyster equipment is the HY 2081800 compatible with?
A: The HY 2081800 is designed for Hyster W40Z (B218) and W45Z (C215) electric pallet trucks. It mounts on riser linkage assemblies. For equipment produced after December 2005, verify whether the -XL variant with 97A hardness is specified for your model.
Q: What part numbers does the HY 2081800 replace?
A: The HY 2081800 is a direct replacement for HY 2043251 and HY 2086274. It is equivalent to HY 2081796, HY 2081800-XL, and HY 4609399. If your equipment references any of these older part numbers, the HY 2081800 is the current direct equivalent.
Q: Are complete wheel kits available that include the HY 2081800?
A: Yes, HY 2081800-KIT and HY 2081800-KIT-XL are complete wheel assemblies that include two load wheel units, axles, ball bearings, and fasteners. These kits provide a comprehensive solution when servicing the entire riser linkage assembly.
Q: What is the expected service life of the HY 2081800 under normal warehouse conditions?
A: Under typical warehouse use, the HY 2081800 wheels provide 12 to 36 months of service depending on load intensity and floor conditions. Inspect quarterly for wear and replace if the wheel surface becomes flat or bearing noise develops.
Q: How should the HY 2081800 wheels be maintained?
A: Keep wheels clean and inspect bearings regularly for smooth operation. If wheels become caked with debris, wash with mild soap and dry thoroughly. Store in a cool, dry location when not in use to prevent premature deterioration of the polyurethane tread.
