NI 9988-051-A

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What equipment is the NI 9988-051-A load wheel assembly designed for?
A: The NI 9988-051-A is a genuine Nissan load wheel assembly engineered for electric lift trucks. This polyurethane wheel is compatible with Nissan electric pallet jack and electric lift truck models requiring OEM-spec replacement wheels.

Q: What material is the NI 9988-051-A made from?
A: This wheel assembly features a polyurethane tread construction, which provides durability and grip on standard warehouse floors. The polyurethane compound resists abrasion and maintains performance under repeated load cycles typical of material handling equipment.

Q: How long does a polyurethane load wheel typically last?
A: Polyurethane load wheel lifespan depends on usage intensity and floor conditions. In typical warehouse environments with moderate use, expect 2 to 5 years of service. Heavy-duty operations or abrasive floors will shorten this window. Regular visual inspection for tread wear and flat spots helps determine replacement timing.

Q: Does the NI 9988-051-A work on wet or cold storage floors?
A: Standard polyurethane formulations can become slippery on wet or refrigerated floors. For cold storage or wet environments, verify compatibility with your specific floor conditions. Nissan offers alternative polyurethane compounds with enhanced traction properties for specialized applications if needed.

Q: What maintenance does this wheel require?
A: Routine maintenance involves inspecting the wheel for flat spots, cracks, or chunks missing from the tread. Remove debris and buildup from the wheel surface as needed. Check the bearing assembly for smooth rotation. No lubrication is required on the wheel itself, though the bearing may need attention per equipment specifications.
