Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the GW 220 load wheel axle used for?
A: The GW 220 is a load wheel axle designed for manual pallet jack applications. It supports load wheels and transfers forces from the lifted load directly to the fork leg structure. This axle is a critical component for any manual jack requiring load wheel installation.
Q: What are the cross-reference part numbers for GW 220?
A: The GW 220 is equivalent to GP 220 and GP220. If you have equipment originally fitted with those part numbers, the GW 220 will provide direct compatibility. Always verify the axle diameter and length match your load wheel bore before ordering.
Q: Which manual pallet jack models use the GW 220 axle?
A: The GW 220 fits manual pallet jacks from manufacturers including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and Clark. Verify the axle diameter and mounting configuration match your specific equipment model before installation.
Q: What material is the GW 220 axle made from?
A: The GW 220 is manufactured from hardened steel to withstand the continuous stress and load transfer during pallet jack operation. Steel construction ensures durability and consistent performance across thousands of lift cycles.
Q: How do I install a GW 220 axle on my manual pallet jack?
A: Remove the cotter pins and retaining hardware from the existing axle. Slide the old axle out. Insert the GW 220 axle through the load wheel bore and fork leg structure. Secure both ends with cotter pins and castle nuts. Do not reuse old cotter pins. Confirm the wheel rotates freely after installation.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of a GW 220 axle?
A: The GW 220 axle typically lasts 3-5 years with normal use. Lifespan depends on load cycles, maintenance, and operating conditions. Inspect the axle quarterly for bending, corrosion, or scoring. Replace immediately if the axle shows visible damage or the wheel does not rotate smoothly.
