Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes the GW 653-XL different from standard 97A polyurethane wheels?
A: The GW 653-XL uses XL 97A polyurethane compound with proprietary XL3 thermochemical steel-polyurethane bonding technology. This provides superior strength, abrasion resistance, and load capacity compared to standard 97A wheels. Best for maximum-duty cycle applications and heavy continuous use.
Q: What are the specifications and dimensions of the GW 653-XL?
A: Outside diameter is 5.000 inches (127.00mm) with a width of 2.880 inches (73.15mm). The wheel features a special high-strength steel hub with a proprietary XL3 thermochemical bond. Confirm mounting bore diameter and axle fit for your lift truck model.
Q: Is the GW 653-XL suitable for outdoor or rough surface use?
A: The GW 653-XL with 97A durometer is designed primarily for hard indoor warehouse floors. The XL compound provides excellent durability for high-cycle applications, but outdoor rough surfaces may cause excessive wear. Consult your equipment manufacturer for outdoor applications.
Q: Does the GW 653-XL wheel include bearings?
A: The specifications for the GW 653-XL do not indicate whether bearings are pre-installed. Contact the supplier or manufacturer to confirm if this is a bare wheel or complete assembly before ordering.
