Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the key specifications of the BJ 78262-XL load wheel?
A: The BJ 78262-XL features a 3 inch diameter and 3.75 inch width. The tire is constructed from Poly XL 97A durometer polyurethane with a polymer reinforced core. It includes a precision sealed bearing and a machine-ground outer rolling surface for optimal performance in heavy-duty warehouse operations.
Q: How does the 97A durometer of the BJ 78262-XL compare to standard load wheels?
A: The 97A durometer polyurethane is a higher hardness compound compared to standard wheels, providing increased load capacity, reduced deformation under heavy loads, and extended tire lifespan. The Poly XL formulation is engineered for maximum durability in demanding industrial environments.
Q: What is the bearing configuration on the BJ 78262-XL?
A: The BJ 78262-XL is equipped with a precision sealed bearing that minimizes friction and maintains consistent rotation performance. The sealed design helps protect against contaminants and reduces maintenance requirements compared to open bearing designs.
Q: What material is the core of the BJ 78262-XL wheel?
A: The BJ 78262-XL features a polymer reinforced core that provides structural strength and distributes loads evenly. This composite core material offers durability and impact resistance suitable for electric lift truck and pallet jack applications.
Q: Is the BJ 78262-XL suitable for wet or cold storage environments?
A: The 97A durometer Poly XL compound maintains consistent traction and performance across temperature ranges typical in warehouse operations. The polyurethane formulation resists moisture absorption and provides reliable performance in humid or cold storage areas.
Q: What distinguishes the BJ 78262-XL from the standard BJ 78262-A?
A: The BJ 78262-XL uses a higher durometer (97A versus 95A) Poly XL compound with a polymer reinforced core, whereas the BJ 78262-A uses a steel core with Durarun material. The XL variant is designed for maximum hardness and load capacity in the most demanding applications.
