Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the exact dimensions and durometer of the GW 654-EL-A wheel?
A: The GW 654-EL-A is a 5.00 inch diameter x 3.62 inch width load wheel molded from black polyurethane with a 97A Shore hardness durometer. It features installed bearings and is identified by OEM part numbers GW654 or 654. This 97A rating provides good load capacity while maintaining reasonable tread life in electric lift truck applications.
Q: Is the GW 654-EL-A a direct replacement for other wheel models?
A: The GW 654-EL-A has no documented cross-reference part numbers from industry sources. It is a proprietary electric lift truck wheel assembly. Always verify your equipment specifications before ordering. Do not substitute with wheels that have different diameter or width dimensions, as this will affect load capacity and handling characteristics.
Q: Does the GW 654-EL-A wheel come with bearings installed?
A: Yes. The GW 654-EL-A includes installed bearings as part of the complete wheel assembly. No bearing installation or pressing is required. Simply mount the wheel to your equipment using the appropriate fasteners and torque specifications for your lift truck model.
Q: What applications is the GW 654-EL-A wheel designed for?
A: The GW 654-EL-A is engineered specifically for electric lift truck parts applications. The black polyurethane construction at 97A Shore hardness is optimized for typical warehouse and material handling duty cycles. This durometer provides durability without excessive wear on polished concrete floors.
Q: What should I check if an GW 654-EL-A wheel begins to wear prematurely?
A: Premature wear indicates one of three issues: misalignment of the wheel assembly, excessive load beyond rated capacity, or floor conditions that are incompatible with 97A polyurethane. Inspect the tire for flat spots or one-sided wear. Check bearing condition for roughness or play. Verify that the mounting bracket and axle alignment match equipment specifications.
