Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does 92 Shore A hardness mean for the GW L38 polyurethane tread?
A: 92 Shore A is a medium-durometer polyurethane rating optimized for load-bearing wheels. This hardness provides excellent wear resistance on concrete and sealed floors while maintaining adequate grip. Softer polyurethanes wear faster under load; harder formulations reduce floor grip.
Q: What are the GW L38 dimensions and bearing specifications?
A: The GW L38 has a 3.0-inch outside diameter and 3.50-inch width. It uses a 6204LL deep-groove ball bearing rated for radial and thrust loads. The bearing is sealed and pre-greased for low-maintenance operation.
Q: Is the GW L38 core material suitable for heavy-duty warehouse use?
A: Yes, the GW L38 uses high-strength carbon steel for the core, designed for maximum load distribution and durability. This core material resists permanent deformation under repeated heavy loading typical in warehouse pallet jack operations.
Q: Can the GW L38 be used as a direct replacement on my existing pallet truck?
A: The GW L38 is designed as an OEM-compatible direct replacement for lift trucks and pallet trucks requiring load wheels with these specifications. Before ordering, confirm your equipment model is listed as compatible. Check mounting bolt patterns and axle diameter match.
Q: How long does a GW L38 typically last in normal warehouse conditions?
A: Expected lifespan depends on load cycles and floor conditions. With standard warehouse use on smooth concrete, the 92 Shore A polyurethane typically lasts 12 to 24 months before significant wear reduces grip. Inspect wheels monthly for flat spots or delamination.
