Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the exact dimensions and material specifications of the BG 108-943 load wheel?
A: The BG 108-943 load wheel assembly features a 3.25 inch tread diameter and 6.00 inch width. The tread is polyurethane with a Shore A 95 hardness rating. The wheel core is cast iron. The assembly is equipped with sealed ball bearings for reliable rotation under load.
Q: Which Blue Giant electric pallet jack models does the BG 108-943 fit?
A: The BG 108-943 is a direct fit OEM-spec replacement for Blue Giant MT-50 electric pallet jack load wheel applications. This assembly replaces the original load wheel wheels found on these lift trucks.
Q: What does the Shore A 95 hardness rating mean for wheel performance?
A: Shore A 95 is a high-hardness polyurethane compound designed for typical warehouse floor conditions. This durometer provides good load-bearing capacity and resistance to scuffing, while maintaining traction on dry concrete. It does not provide enhanced grip for wet floors or cold storage.
Q: Are there cross-reference or alternate part numbers for the BG 108-943?
A: Yes. The BG 108-943 load wheel assembly has documented cross-reference part numbers: BG108-943, BG108943, and 108943. When ordering, use any of these part numbers interchangeably to locate this assembly.
Q: What is the lifespan of an electric pallet jack load wheel and when should it be replaced?
A: Load wheel life varies based on floor conditions, load frequency, and storage environment. Replace the BG 108-943 if you observe flat spots, visible tread loss, cracking, bearing noise, or steering difficulty. Most equipment sees replacement every 12 to 36 months in active warehouse use.
Q: What maintenance extends the life of the BG 108-943 wheel assembly?
A: Keep wheels clean of debris and moisture. Sealed ball bearings do not require greasing. Inspect regularly for flat spots or cracks. Rotate load wheels if uneven wear is detected. Store the truck on level ground and avoid prolonged exposure to standing water or caustic cleaners.
