Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does the PR 23041-00-XL wheel fit?
A: The PR 23041-00-XL is designed for BT Prime Mover PMX series electric pallet jacks. It is compatible with equipment requiring 3.25-inch diameter wheels with 52 mm bore. Cross-reference part numbers 23041-00, PR23041-00, PM23041-00, and PM 23041-00 indicate compatibility across various supplier systems.
Q: What are the specifications for the PR 23041-00-XL load wheel?
A: The PR 23041-00-XL measures 3.25 inches in diameter with 5 inches tread width, 52 mm bore, and 95A to 97A Shore polyurethane tread bonded to a machined cast iron core. It is supplied as plain bore with no bearings pre-installed.
Q: Is the PR 23041-00-XL supplied with bearings?
A: No, the PR 23041-00-XL is supplied as plain bore only, meaning no bearings are pre-installed. Appropriate sealed ball bearings must be sourced separately and matched to your equipment specifications.
Q: What is the difference between 95A and 97A polyurethane hardness on this wheel?
A: The PR 23041-00-XL polyurethane ranges from 95A to 97A Shore A hardness. Both hardness levels are suitable for heavy-duty electric lift truck applications. The 97A tread is slightly harder and may offer longer wear life on aggressive floors, while 95A provides marginally better grip on smooth surfaces. Both perform well in standard warehouse conditions.
Q: What are the cross-reference part numbers for PR 23041-00-XL?
A: Equivalent part numbers include 23041-00, PR23041-00, PM23041-00, and PM 23041-00. These numbers represent the same product across different supplier or manufacturer systems. Use any of these for sourcing or inventory lookup.
Q: Why is cast iron core construction important for load wheels?
A: The machined cast iron core resists impact, deformation, and flat-spotting under full load conditions common in material handling. This construction provides superior durability compared to lighter materials in high-cycle warehouse environments. Cast iron does not compress or fatigue like softer metals, extending overall wheel lifespan significantly.
Q: What applications are best suited for the PR 23041-00-XL?
A: This wheel is ideal for heavy-duty warehouse, distribution center, and manufacturing environments where electric pallet jacks operate continuously. The polyurethane tread and cast iron core combination makes it well-suited for varied floor conditions including concrete, asphalt, and smooth warehouse surfaces.
