Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does the CT 1055551 load wheel fit?
A: The CT 1055551 is a replacement load wheel designed for Caterpillar and Towmotor electric lift truck applications. Verify exact model compatibility with your equipment documentation or parts diagram, as Caterpillar and Towmotor produced multiple lift truck lines with different wheel specifications.
Q: What material is the CT 1055551 made from?
A: The CT 1055551 features polyurethane tread construction. Polyurethane load wheels provide non-marking performance on most flooring types and resist wear under typical material handling duty cycles.
Q: How do I know when to replace the CT 1055551 load wheel?
A: Inspect regularly for flat spots, visible cracking in the polyurethane, uneven or accelerated wear patterns, and proper tread condition. Replace the load wheel if damage is visible or performance degrades.
Q: Is the CT 1055551 suitable for use on wet or cold storage floors?
A: Standard polyurethane wheels like the CT 1055551 may lose traction on wet or slippery surfaces. For wet floors or cold storage, consult Caterpillar for high-traction polyurethane alternatives with enhanced grip formulations.
Q: What are the storage recommendations for the CT 1055551 load wheel?
A: Store the CT 1055551 in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations. Polyurethane wheels can deteriorate if exposed to prolonged UV light or heat. Keep spare wheels indoors when not in use.
