Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between SU S9150-XL and SU S9150-XL-A?
A: The SU S9150-XL is the wheel core and tread assembly only. The SU S9150-XL-A is a complete load wheel assembly that includes the wheel, sealed bearings, and all fasteners (typically Grade 8 hardware) ready to bolt directly onto an axle. The -A designation indicates a fully assembled, ready-to-install unit.
Q: What tools and hardware are needed to install the SU S9150-XL-A on an electric pallet truck?
A: Installation requires a socket wrench set (typically 12mm or 13mm for the Grade 8 fasteners), a torque wrench (verify OEM specification, usually 45-65 ft-lbs for wheel fasteners), and jack stands to safely lift the truck. The SU S9150-XL-A arrives fully assembled, so no bearing installation or tread bonding is needed. Installation typically takes 15-20 minutes per wheel.
Q: Can the SU S9150-XL-A wheel assembly be disassembled for repair or bearing replacement?
A: The SU S9150-XL-A is designed as a sealed, integrated unit. Disassembly is not recommended in field service because the Cushothane XL tread is bonded to the steel core using XL3 bonding technology. Separation and rebonding requires factory equipment. If bearings fail, replace the entire assembly as a unit.
Q: What bore specifications does the SU S9150-XL-A have?
A: The bore outside diameter is 2.4384 inches and the bore depth is 0.67 inches. These are standard dimensions for axle hubs on most electric pallet trucks. Always measure your truck axle before ordering to confirm bore diameter and depth match, as variations exist between manufacturers and model years.
Q: Is the SU S9150-XL-A suitable for cold storage or wet floor environments?
A: The SU S9150-XL-A uses a standard Cushothane XL compound, which maintains good flexibility in cold storage (down to approximately -10°C) but is not specifically formulated for prolonged wet floor duty. For dedicated wet and cold storage applications, consider the SU S9151-EZ, which features a High Traction polyurethane compound designed for those conditions.
