Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the GWK-6HBW20-LW fit Toyota 6HBE20 and 6HBW20 models?
A: Yes. The GWK-6HBW20-LW is designed for Toyota 6HBW20 electric pallet jacks. Verify your model number on the equipment nameplate before ordering. If you have a 6HBE20, check the serial range and axle dimensions to confirm fitment, as wheel hub bore sizes vary between model revisions.
Q: What is the polyurethane hardness and load capacity of this wheel kit?
A: The GWK-6HBW20-LW wheels are molded polyurethane at 95A Shore hardness cast over a steel hub. The 95A rating provides high-load capacity suitable for standard warehouse duty, typically 5000 to 6000 lb fork capacity depending on the base jack model. Do not exceed the rated capacity of your equipment.
Q: Are these wheels non-marking and suitable for display floors?
A: Yes. The 95A polyurethane formulation is non-marking and provides minimal floor contact stress. These wheels are suitable for warehouses, retail environments, and display floors. They produce lower noise than standard rubber wheels and do not leave scuff marks on polished or sealed concrete.
Q: What tools and steps are required to install this wheel kit?
A: Installation requires basic wrenches (typically 17mm or 19mm depending on axle bolt size). Lift the jack safely on a level surface. Remove the cotter pins and retaining nuts from each axle. Slide the old wheels off, then slide the new GWK-6HBW20-LW assemblies onto the axles, ensuring they seat fully. Reinstall retaining nuts, torque to manufacturer specification (usually 45 to 55 ft-lbs), and secure with new cotter pins. Test the jack before returning to service.
Q: How long do these wheels typically last in continuous warehouse use?
A: In moderate warehouse duty, 95A polyurethane wheels typically last 12 to 24 months before wear becomes noticeable. Lifespan depends on daily cycle count, load consistency, and floor surface. Inspect wheels quarterly for flat spots, cracks, or hardening. Replace immediately if tread wear exceeds 25% or if the wheel no longer rolls freely.
Q: Is the GWK-6HBW20-LW equivalent to any other branded wheel kits?
A: Cross-reference information shows no direct OEM equivalents from other manufacturers for the GWK-6HBW20-LW. Always verify fitment using your equipment model and axle dimensions rather than assuming compatibility with third-party wheel kits. Contact the manufacturer with your jack serial number for confirmed alternative options.
