Product Description
This load wheel kit includes two 97A polyurethane load wheel assemblies with axles, bearings, and fasteners, ensuring durability and efficient performance. The wheels are engineered for smooth operation on various surfaces, producing minimal friction and noise while being non-marking to prevent floor damage. With a durometer rating of 92A, they are ideal for diverse environments, including warehouses and display floors, and can be adapted for extreme weather conditions with optional nylon wheels.
Compatibility: Fits pallet jacks made by Toyota, model 6HBE30. SKU: GWK-6HBW30-LW-XL

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment is compatible with the GWK-6HBW30-LW-XL wheel kit?
A: The GWK-6HBW30-LW-XL is designed exclusively for Toyota 6 HBW 30 series electric pallet jacks. Always verify your serial number matches this model range before ordering. This kit is not compatible with 6 HBW 10 or 6 HBW 20 variants.
Q: What does the 92A durometer rating mean and why does it matter?
A: The 92A Shore A durometer indicates wheel hardness. A 92A rating is slightly softer than standard 97A polyurethane, which helps absorb vibration and provides better grip on smooth surfaces like tile and display floors. This makes the kit better suited for facilities mixing carpet and polished concrete where traction is variable.
Q: Is the GWK-6HBW30-LW-XL non-marking, and what surfaces can it roll on?
A: Yes, the non-marking polyurethane formulation will not stain or mark finished floors. Use this kit on carpet, tile, display, and warehouse flooring without risk of marks. The kit is not recommended for rough concrete or outdoor surfaces, as exposure to UV light and extreme temperature fluctuations can degrade the rubber compound.
Q: What is included in this wheel kit, and do I need any additional parts?
A: This kit includes two 97A polyurethane load wheel assemblies with integrated axles, sealed bearings, and all fasteners needed for installation. No additional components are required. The kit is a complete bolt-on replacement that installs in approximately 30 minutes using a wrench and socket set.
Q: Can the GWK-6HBW30-LW-XL be used in extreme weather or cold storage?
A: Standard 92A polyurethane may become brittle in cold storage environments below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. For freezer or outdoor use, consult the product data sheet for optional nylon wheel alternatives that maintain flexibility in sub-zero conditions. Nylon wheels will have different grip and noise characteristics.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of this wheel kit under normal warehouse duty?
A: Polyurethane wheels typically provide 12 to 24 months of service in light to medium-duty warehouse environments with daily use. Lifespan depends on floor surface, load weight, and travel distance. If wheels begin to flat-spot, show visible cracking, or produce grinding noise, replacement is recommended immediately.
