Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the GWK-PE4500-LW-XL fit standard Crown PE 4500 Series jacks?
A: Yes. The GWK-PE4500-LW-XL is an OEM-replacement load wheel kit designed for Crown PE 4500 Series electric pallet trucks. Verify your jack is marked PE 4500 or PE4500 on the data plate. This kit provides a direct fit replacement for heavy-duty warehouse service.
Q: What wheel hardness and construction is included in this kit?
A: The GWK-PE4500-LW-XL features 97A durometer polyurethane wheels, which is a higher hardness rating than standard PE 4500 kits. The 97A rating provides superior abrasion resistance and extended service life in continuous industrial duty cycle applications.
Q: What components are pre-assembled in this kit?
A: The kit includes two pre-assembled wheels with axles, bearings, and all required fasteners. No additional hardware needs to be purchased separately. Simply remove old wheels and bolt the new assemblies into place.
Q: Are the bearings in the GWK-PE4500-LW-XL sealed?
A: Yes. The kit includes industrial mobile equipment grade sealed bearings that are pre-lubricated at the factory. Sealed bearings require no field greasing and provide extended service intervals in wet or dusty warehouse environments.
Q: How does the 97A durometer rating compare to standard PE 4500 wheels?
A: The 97A durometer is harder than the standard 95A wheels found on some PE 4500 jacks. Harder wheels reduce rolling resistance, extend tread life, and improve load capacity, but may transmit more vibration on uneven floors. Choose 97A for heavy continuous duty or high mileage applications.
Q: Can I install the GWK-PE4500-LW-XL myself, or do I need a technician?
A: Installation is straightforward for technicians with basic pallet truck experience. De-energize the jack, support it safely, remove fasteners from the old wheels, install the new pre-assembled units, and torque fasteners to OEM spec. No special tools beyond standard sockets are required.
