Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment models does the CL 1821945-XL load wheel fit?
A: The CL 1821945-XL is a direct replacement wheel for Clark WPX45 electric pallet trucks. Cross-reference part numbers include Clark 1821945 and CL1821945. Verify that your equipment uses a wheel before ordering.
Q: What does the 97A Shore hardness rating mean for this wheel?
A: The 97A Shore hardness rating indicates a firmer polyurethane compound designed for demanding high-capacity warehouse and dock applications. The XL grade formulation provides improved cut and tear resistance compared to standard wheels, making it suitable for rough surfaces and heavy load environments exceeding standard capacity ratings.
Q: What are the wheel diameter and construction materials?
A: The CL 1821945-XL features a polyurethane wheel mounted on a machined steel core. The assembly includes precision ball bearings for smooth operation and reduced friction during material handling operations.
Q: How does the 97A polyurethane XL compound compare to standard load wheels?
A: The XL 97A grade is a higher-durometer polyurethane formulation that delivers greater resistance to cutting, tearing, and abrasion than standard wheels. This compound is engineered for high-capacity applications and environments where wheel degradation is a concern, resulting in longer service intervals.
Q: What cross-reference part numbers match the CL 1821945-XL?
A: Direct cross-reference part numbers for the CL 1821945-XL are Clark 1821945 and CL1821945. When ordering replacement wheels, confirm that part numbers match exactly to ensure compatibility with your equipment.
Q: Where should I store unused CL 1821945-XL wheels?
A: Store replacement wheels in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight, ozone sources, and extreme temperatures. Polyurethane wheels should be kept out of contact with oils, solvents, and other chemicals that may degrade the material.
