Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the core material of the 1201766-A wheel?
A: The 1201766-A uses an alloy steel core with an integral hub. This design provides superior strength and weight distribution. The integral hub eliminates separate fasteners and improves bearing support.
Q: What polyurethane hardness does this wheel use?
A: The 1201766-A features 95A hardness polyurethane tread. This rating provides a balance between load capacity and traction on warehouse floors. The bonded polyurethane is not replaceable; the wheel must be exchanged when tread wears.
Q: Is the 1201766-A rated for high-frequency continuous service?
A: Yes. The 1201766-A is built for high-frequency continuous service in warehouse material handling environments. The alloy steel core and integral hub design handle repetitive load cycles and reduce bearing wear over extended operation.
Q: How does the 1201766-A bearing configuration work?
A: The 1201766-A integrates a press-fit bearing configuration into the alloy steel core. This design provides direct load transfer from the axle to the wheel core. Bearings are sealed within the wheel hub for protection.
Q: What is the finish of the 1201766-A core?
A: The steel core is machined for precise dimensions and smooth surface finish. The polyurethane tread is then bonded to this machined surface to create the complete wheel assembly. The machined finish ensures consistent axle fitment and bearing alignment.
Q: Can the polyurethane tread be replaced or retreaded?
A: No. The polyurethane tread on the 1201766-A is bonded to the steel core as a permanent assembly. Once the tread wears, the entire wheel must be replaced.
