Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the part number and what equipment does this wheel fit?
A: The 9135-XL is a 3.25 x 5 inch load wheel manufactured by Superior Industries. It is compatible with electric pallet jacks, stackers, and lift trucks from Yale, Hyster, Crown, Clark, Jungheinrich, and Raymond. Always verify the current wheel size and bore diameter on your equipment before ordering.
Q: What is Cushothane XL 97A and how does it compare to other polyurethane wheels?
A: Cushothane XL is an advanced polyurethane compound with a 97A Shore A durometer rating. This harder durometer provides superior resistance to cuts, gouging, and abrasion compared to softer 95A wheels, delivering approximately 20-40% longer tread life under identical conditions. The tradeoff is slightly reduced traction on very smooth or wet surfaces.
Q: What is the HeatSink aluminum hub and why is it important?
A: The HeatSink aluminum hub conducts and dissipates heat away from the wheel bearings during operation. This is critical in continuous-duty applications where friction generates heat. Aluminum conducts heat five times more efficiently than steel, preventing bearing lubricant degradation and extending bearing life significantly.
Q: What are the exact wheel dimensions?
A: The 9135-XL has an outside diameter of 3.25 inches (82.55mm), width of 5.00 inches (127.00mm), inside bore diameter of 1.938 inches, and hub width of 5.00 inches. This is the standard 3.25 x 5 format used on most electric lift trucks.
Q: Is this wheel suitable for high-use warehouse operations?
A: Yes. The 97A compound and HeatSink aluminum hub design make the 9135-XL ideal for high-cycle warehouse operations running extended hours. The superior thermal management and durable compound extend service life in demanding environments.
Q: How should I store or maintain this wheel?
A: Store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Polyurethane can degrade if exposed to extreme temperatures or ultraviolet light for extended periods. Periodically inspect wheels for visible damage, flat spots, or uneven wear. Replace wheels when tread depth becomes shallow or damage is visible.
