Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the load capacity and bearing specification for the SU 820 load wheel?
A: The SU 820 is rated for 2,000 lbs per wheel maximum load capacity. It features a 20 mm precision bearing bore with polyurethane tread bonded to a steel hub. The polyurethane compound has Shore A 93 hardness, which provides good wear resistance for industrial pallet truck and electric lift truck applications.
Q: Can I use the SU 820 load wheel on different lift truck models?
A: Compatibility depends on your equipment having a 20 mm bearing bore and load requirements under 2,000 lbs per wheel. Always verify your original equipment manufacturer documentation for wheel diameter, width, and bearing specification before installation. Cross-reference your truck model to confirm fitment requirements.
Q: What are the tread width dimensions for the SU 820?
A: The SU 820 has a 2.44 inch tread width, which is the contact surface of the polyurethane compound against the floor. This dimension is important when calculating total truck width or when replacing wheels on equipment with specific space constraints.
Q: How do I diagnose if the SU 820 wheel needs replacement?
A: Replace the wheel if you notice significant tread wear (flat spots), polyurethane separation from the steel hub, or if the wheel no longer rolls freely. Check for audible grinding, excessive runout, or wobbling during operation. A wheel with compromised tread or hub separation cannot maintain load safely and must be replaced immediately.
Q: What material is the SU 820 wheel and can I use it on concrete floors?
A: The SU 820 uses polyurethane tread molded onto a machined steel hub. Polyurethane wheels are suitable for concrete floors and provide good traction. Shore A 93 hardness indicates a fairly rigid compound that resists wear and abrasion while maintaining grip on smooth and textured concrete surfaces.
Q: What is the proper maintenance and storage for the SU 820 wheel?
A: Inspect wheels monthly for tread wear and hub damage. The 20 mm bearing bore requires a compatible axle shaft. Do not exceed 2,000 lbs per wheel load capacity. Store unused wheels in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and chemicals that can degrade polyurethane. Clean the tread regularly to remove debris that can affect floor traction.
