Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does the YL 505596501-XL load wheel assembly fit?
A: The YL 505596501-XL is a Yale OEM load wheel assembly designed for Yale MPE 060 and MPE 080 electric pallet trucks. Verify your truck model and serial number against the MPE designation before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
Q: What is the material composition and hardness of this load wheel?
A: The YL 505596501-XL uses polyurethane material with 92A Shore hardness. This durometer rating provides balanced load-bearing capacity and floor traction for typical warehouse and material handling environments.
Q: What is the OEM part number reference for this assembly?
A: The OEM part number is 505596501, also referenced as YT505596501 by the manufacturer. Use either designation when cross-referencing with Yale documentation or inventory systems.
Q: How does the XL designation differ from standard load wheels?
A: The XL suffix indicates an oversized or extended load wheel assembly compared to standard variants. Confirm wheel diameter and width specifications match your truck undercarriage before ordering to avoid fitment issues.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of a polyurethane load wheel at 92A hardness?
A: Polyurethane wheels at 92A Shore hardness typically last 12 to 24 months under normal warehouse duty, depending on floor conditions, load weight, and operating hours. Harder polyurethane compounds resist abrasion but may reduce shock absorption.
