Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the core material in the BR 9988-051-A load wheel?
A: The BR 9988-051-A features a high-strength steel core with a polyurethane tread. The steel core provides structural rigidity and supports heavy loads typical of electric pallet jack service.
Q: Is the BR 9988-051-A Shore A 95 the same hardness as the standard BR 9988-051?
A: Yes, both parts are Shore A 95 durometer polyurethane. The primary difference is that BR 9988-051-A is specified as an OEM-equivalent assembly with a reinforced steel core design. Check your equipment documentation to confirm which part number your Barrett model requires.
Q: What Barrett pallet jack models is the BR 9988-051-A compatible with?
A: The BR 9988-051-A directly replaces the following part numbers: BR9988-051, BR9988051, and 9988051 on selected Barrett electric pallet jack models. Verify the OEM part number on your equipment label before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
Q: Why would I choose BR 9988-051-A over BR 9988-051?
A: The BR 9988-051-A is marketed as an OEM-equivalent assembly with a high-strength steel core, which may offer improved structural durability and load retention in heavy-duty applications. If your equipment specifies the -A variant, use that. Both are 95A polyurethane with similar traction properties.
Q: How do I know if my Barrett pallet jack needs BR 9988-051-A wheels?
A: Check the part number stamped or labeled on the existing wheel or in your equipment manual. If it matches BR9988-051, BR9988051, or 9988051, the BR 9988-051-A is a direct replacement. When in doubt, provide us with your equipment model or serial number for verification.
Q: Does the steel core in the BR 9988-051-A affect wheel durability or lifespan?
A: The steel core reinforces the wheel structure and resists deformation under heavy loads, which can extend usable life in demanding environments. Lifespan still depends on floor type, load intensity, and maintenance. In moderate warehouse service, expect 12 to 24 months before noticeable wear.
