Load Wheel Axle, Cold Storage
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What applications is the BR 28700-109 load wheel axle designed for?
A: The BR 28700-109 is a load wheel axle specifically designed for cold storage environments. This axle is compatible with electric lift trucks and pallet jacks from major manufacturers including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and Yale. It delivers reliable performance in sub-zero temperatures where standard axles may become brittle.
Q: What are the material specifications for the BR 28700-109?
A: The BR 28700-109 features hardened steel construction rated for cold storage applications. The material composition allows the axle to maintain structural integrity and load-bearing capacity in temperatures well below freezing, preventing the embrittlement that occurs with standard carbon steel in cold environments.
Q: How does the BR 28700-109 compare to standard load wheel axles?
A: The BR 28700-109 differs from standard load wheel axles through enhanced material formulation for low-temperature performance. Standard axles are designed for ambient warehouse temperatures, while the BR 28700-109 maintains proper hardness and load capacity at freezer and blast-chamber temperatures. This prevents cracking and premature failure in cold storage operations.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of the BR 28700-109 in cold storage use?
A: In typical cold storage operations with regular use, the BR 28700-109 can be expected to last 2-3 years before replacement. Lifespan depends on daily run hours, load weights, and maintenance practices. Inspect for wear at 12-month intervals; replace if lateral play or noise develops.
Q: Which electric lift truck models use the BR 28700-109?
A: The BR 28700-109 is compatible with multiple electric pallet jack and walkie lift truck models from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Hyster, and Jungheinrich.
