Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the XL designation mean on the SU S9153-XL load wheel?
A: XL indicates that the SU S9153-XL is made from Cushothane XL material, a polyurethane compound engineered for durability and load handling in industrial material-handling equipment. It provides enhanced wear resistance and load capacity compared to standard polyurethane wheels.
Q: What lift truck models use the SU S9153-XL 3.25 inch x 6.5 inch load wheel?
A: The SU S9153-XL is a load wheel for electric lift trucks and pallet jacks that require a 3.250 inch diameter x 6.500 inch width wheel (82.55mm x 165.10mm). This is a less common size than 5-inch wheels. Verify your equipment model against the OEM parts list or measure your existing wheel to confirm compatibility.
Q: What are the bore dimensions for the SU S9153-XL?
A: The SU S9153-XL has a bore depth of 1.182 inch, a bore outside diameter of 2.0467 inch, and an inside diameter of 1.938 inch. The hub width is 6.5 inches. Confirm these dimensions match your equipment axle before ordering to ensure proper fit and alignment.
Q: Is the SU S9153-XL suitable for cold storage or outdoor use?
A: The SU S9153-XL uses Cushothane XL material designed for general industrial duty. For cold storage (below 32 degrees F) or wet floors, verify that your application does not require enhanced traction. Contact support if you need a variant with EZ high-traction polyurethane compound.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of the SU S9153-XL wheel?
A: Under normal service (dry floors, 2-4 hours daily operation), the SU S9153-XL typically lasts 3-4 years before the 3/8 radius tread profile wears flat. Heavy loading or rough floor surfaces will reduce lifespan. Replace when diameter drops below 3.125 inches or when the wheel develops flat spots or cracking.
Q: Can the SU S9153-XL be repaired or reconditioned?
A: The SU S9153-XL is a molded polyurethane wheel and cannot be resurfaced or reconditioned. Once worn, it must be replaced as a complete unit. Salvage value is minimal; plan for full replacement in your maintenance budget.
