Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment is the BJ 078262-XL wheel assembly compatible with?
A: The BJ 078262-XL is designed for Big Joe electric pallet trucks and serves as a direct replacement for BJ078262-A, BJ078262A, and 078262A assemblies. Verify your equipment model matches before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
Q: What does the 97A Shore hardness rating mean?
A: Shore hardness is a measure of polyurethane durometer (softness/hardness). The 97A rating indicates a harder compound designed for extended wear resistance in high-traffic warehouse environments. This higher hardness provides better abrasion resistance than standard 95A wheels.
Q: What are the wheel dimensions?
A: Confirm these dimensions match your equipment's axle specifications before ordering.
Q: Why is a cast iron core used instead of steel?
A: Cast iron cores provide consistent strength and load distribution while maintaining the original load rating. The cast iron construction offers robust, long-term durability for warehouse service applications.
Q: How long does the polyurethane tread last?
A: Polyurethane wheel lifespan depends on usage intensity, load weight, floor conditions, and maintenance. The 97A Shore hardness formulation resists abrasion longer than softer compounds. Monitor tread condition regularly and replace when wear becomes evident.
Q: Can the BJ 078262-XL be used on indoor or outdoor surfaces?
A: Polyurethane wheels are suitable for indoor warehouse and facility floors. Outdoor use or exposure to extreme temperatures may affect performance and durability. Consult equipment documentation for recommended operating conditions.
