Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the dimensions and material specifications for the BJ 102 load wheel?
A: The BJ 102 is a 2.75 inch diameter by 3.50 inch width polyurethane load wheel with 95A Shore A hardness (95A durometer). It features a machined steel core with double ball bearings for smooth rolling and load distribution on electric pallet trucks.
Q: Which Big Joe electric pallet truck models does the BJ 102 fit?
A: The BJ 102 is designed for Big Joe walkie and electric pallet truck models. It is an OEM load wheel assembly that cross-references with BJ102-A and 102A part numbers. Verify your equipment model matches before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
Q: What is the difference between 95A durometer and harder polyurethane compounds?
A: The 95A durometer rating indicates medium hardness polyurethane. A higher durometer like 97A is harder and resists wear better in heavy-duty applications but rides slightly rougher. The 95A compound on the BJ 102 balances durability, load capacity, and floor contact for standard material handling applications.
Q: How long does a BJ 102 load wheel typically last in service?
A: Lifespan depends on load weight, floor conditions, and usage frequency. A 95A polyurethane wheel typically performs for 12 to 36 months under normal warehouse conditions. Wet floors, cold storage, or heavy continuous use may shorten lifespan. Inspect for flat spots or uneven wear quarterly.
Q: Are there any cross-reference or equivalent part numbers for the BJ 102?
A: Yes. The BJ 102 cross-references with BJ102-A, BJ102A, and 102A. When ordering replacement stock or compatibility checks, these part numbers refer to the same OEM load wheel assembly.
