Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the main difference between SU 627 and SU 626-XL wheels?
A: The key difference is width. SU 627 is 2.0 inches wide while SU 626-XL is 2.875 inches wide. Both share the same 3.25 inch OD and 95 Shore A polyurethane material. The narrower SU 627 is lighter, requires less space in the frame, and costs less. However, the narrower width concentrates load on a smaller contact area, limiting load capacity to approximately 600 to 700 lbs per wheel compared to 800 to 900 lbs for SU 626-XL.
Q: Is SU 627 a suitable replacement for electric pallet jacks with light-duty applications?
A: Yes. SU 627 is ideal for light-duty electric pallet jacks handling loads up to 2000 lbs total (approximately 500 to 600 lbs per wheel on a four-wheel truck). It performs well for standard warehouse operations on smooth, level concrete floors with 6 to 10 hour daily duty cycles. Do not use SU 627 for heavy-load applications exceeding 3000 lbs or on rough floors, as the narrow width will cause accelerated wear and bearing stress.
Q: Can I mix SU 627 wheels with wider wheel types on the same truck?
A: No. Mixing different wheel widths on the same truck creates tracking issues and uneven load distribution. Narrower SU 627 wheels will sink deeper into the contact area than wider wheels, causing the truck to pull to one side. All four wheels must be the same width for proper steering and handling. Replace wheels as complete sets of four, not individually.
Q: What symptoms indicate SU 627 wheels are nearing end-of-life?
A: End-of-life symptoms include worn tread depth below 1/8 inch, visible flat spots or faceting, cracks radiating from the bore, or polyurethane chunks missing from the tread edge. Check tread depth with a depth gauge or coin. When tread approaches 1/4 inch remaining, order replacement wheels. Continuing to operate on severely worn wheels increases rolling resistance, reduces steering response, and risks core exposure.
Q: Does SU 627 installation require bearing replacement or is it a bolt-on wheel?
A: SU 627 wheels are supplied as bolt-on ready components with bearings pre-installed. No bearing replacement is required. Simply remove the retaining nut from your truck axle, slide off the old wheel, position the SU 627 wheel onto the axle, and reinstall the retaining nut. Hand tighten the nut securely, then verify the wheel spins freely without wobbling. No special tools or press is needed for installation.
Q: What temperature and surface conditions are appropriate for SU 627 wheels?
A: SU 627 wheels operate optimally in ambient temperatures from 0 degrees F to +120 degrees F on smooth, clean concrete surfaces. The 95 Shore A polyurethane provides good traction in these conditions. Below 0 degrees F, the material hardens and traction is reduced. Above 120 degrees F, polyurethane begins to soften. Avoid rough, gravel-covered, or chemically contaminated floors, as the narrow width concentrates contact pressure and accelerates wear in harsh conditions.
