Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the specifications of the CT 105548-A load wheel assembly?
A: The CT 105548-A features a 5 inch outer diameter, 3.625 inch width, and 2.441 inch bore. The tread is polyurethane Shore A 95 hardness. The core is machined steel. This assembly is designed for heavy-duty pallet jack applications on Caterpillar equipment.
Q: Is the CT 105548-A compatible with other lift truck brands besides Caterpillar?
A: The CT 105548-A is an original Caterpillar part. While some load wheels may be compatible across brands with matching dimensions and bore sizes, always verify fitment specifications before ordering. Use the exact SKU and dimensions to ensure correct fitment.
Q: What is the load capacity of the CT 105548-A?
A: Load capacity depends on the mast configuration and wheel positioning on your equipment. The polyurethane 95A material and steel core are engineered for heavy-duty service. Consult your lift truck manual for maximum load specifications.
Q: How does the 95A polyurethane on the CT 105548-A perform in different floor conditions?
A: Shore A 95 polyurethane provides good wear resistance on concrete and warehouse floors. It offers moderate grip and durability for general material handling. For wet floors or cold storage, a softer compound or specialized tread may provide better traction.
Q: What is the relationship between CT 105548-A and CT 1055548?
A: The CT 105548-A is the correct SKU for this load wheel assembly. CT 1055548 may be a variant or cross-reference number. Always use the exact SKU from your equipment documentation to ensure you receive the correct part.
Q: How does wheel hardness affect performance and wear life?
A: The 95A Shore A hardness rating indicates a relatively hard polyurethane suitable for heavy loads and rough surfaces. Harder compounds last longer but provide less grip. Softer compounds grip better but wear faster. The 95A rating on the CT 105548-A balances durability with material handling performance.
