Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the specifications of the CR 100462-020 load wheel?
A: The CR 100462-020 is a 3.25 inch diameter by 6.50 inch tread width load wheel featuring premium 95A polyurethane tread bonded to a cast iron core. It includes dual 6205-2RS sealed bearings that reduce maintenance needs in dusty or wet material handling environments.
Q: Which Crown electric pallet truck models does the CR 100462-020 fit?
A: The CR 100462-020 is compatible with Crown PE 3000, PE 4000, and PE 4500 series electric pallet trucks. It works with riser assemblies configured for 9 inch and 10 inch forks. Always verify your specific model and fork configuration match before ordering.
Q: What is the advantage of the cast iron core versus steel core?
A: Cast iron cores offer excellent durability and resistance to wear in high-cycle material handling operations. Cast iron maintains its structural integrity under sustained heavy loads and provides stable wheel geometry over extended service life compared to some alternative core materials.
Q: What do the 6205-2RS sealed bearings offer?
A: The 6205-2RS designation indicates sealed ball bearings with rubber seals on both sides (2RS means dual seals). These seals exclude dirt, moisture, and contaminants, reducing bearing wear and extending intervals between maintenance or replacement in warehouse and cold storage environments.
Q: What are the cross-reference or superseded part numbers for CR 100462-020?
A: The CR 100462-020 replaces CR100462, 100462 and is equivalent to 100461, CR 100462-A, and CR 100462-XL-A. If your equipment documentation references any of these older numbers, the CR 100462-020 should provide compatible fitment. Confirm part dimensions match your specific pallet truck model.
Q: How does the 95A polyurethane durometer rating affect wheel performance?
A: The 95A Shore A durometer indicates a medium-hard polyurethane formulation that balances abrasion resistance with load-bearing capacity. This rating is standard for material handling load wheels and provides durability in general warehouse operations, concrete floors, and standard indoor surfaces.
