Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the dimensions of the HY C48320 polyurethane wheel?
A: The HY C48320 is a 6 X 3 X 2.441 wheel. The first dimension is outer diameter, the second is width, and the third is the bore size. Always verify bore and width dimensions match your trucks axle and mounting frame before ordering.
Q: Why would I choose the HY C48320 polyurethane wheel over a cast iron wheel?
A: Polyurethane wheels provide superior grip on wet floors and cold storage environments, reduce noise compared to cast iron, and are gentler on floors. However, polyurethane is softer and may wear faster under heavy, sustained loading. Evaluate your facility floor type and load profile before selecting.
Q: What Hyster models is the HY C48320 compatible with?
A: The HY C48320 is engineered for specific Hyster electric lift truck platforms and load wheel positions. Verify your truck model, serial range, and wheel position against the compatibility chart. Do not assume the same wheel fits both load and steer positions.
Q: How durable is polyurethane for outdoor or rough floor use?
A: Polyurethane wheels are optimized for indoor, smooth to moderately rough surfaces. Extended outdoor use, exposure to sharp debris, or rough concrete will accelerate wear. For rough outdoor terrain, cast iron wheels may offer longer service life.
Q: Does the HY C48320 require special maintenance?
A: Polyurethane wheels require no routine lubrication or coating. Inspect regularly for uneven wear, chunks, or flat spotting. If the wheel begins to chunk or lose traction significantly, replacement is necessary. Do not attempt to refinish or resurface polyurethane wheels.
