Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the exact dimensions of the GW 684-XL idler caster wheel?
A: The GW 684-XL is an 8 inch diameter by 4 inch width wheel (8.000 x 4.000 inches or 203.20 x 101.60 millimeters). This XL sizing is designed for heavy-duty electric lift truck and pallet truck applications requiring extended load support and mobility.
Q: What material and durometer rating make the GW 684-XL durable?
A: The GW 684-XL is manufactured from high-quality polyurethane with a 97A durometer rating. This hardness specification provides optimal load-bearing capacity, excellent wear resistance, and smooth rolling performance in demanding environments. The polyurethane construction resists moisture and temperature fluctuations.
Q: Which equipment types and brands use the GW 684-XL?
A: The GW 684-XL idler caster fits electric lift trucks and pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Jungheinrich, Linde, Clark, Mitsubishi, CAT, and BT. Verify the wheel assembly mounting diameter matches your equipment before ordering.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of the GW 684-XL wheel?
A: With regular maintenance and proper load application, the GW 684-XL typically lasts 3 to 5 years in continuous material handling operations. Wheel life depends on floor conditions, load weight, and distance traveled. Inspect quarterly for flat spots, chunking, or excessive wear and replace when tread depth reduces below 1/8 inch.
