Product Description
This load wheel kit enhances your pallet jack's performance with two Ultra-Poly (70D) Load Wheel Assemblies, complete with bearings, axles, and fasteners for easy replacement of worn components. Designed for Toyota HPT25 models, the wheels feature a 70D durometer polyurethane construction that offers improved durability and load-carrying capacity while remaining non-marking to protect surfaces. Their robust design makes them suitable for harsh conditions, ensuring better efficiency and reduced operator fatigue.
Compatibility: Fits pallet jacks made by Toyota, model HPT25. SKU: GWK-HPT25-LW

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does GWK-HPT25-LW include and what does it not include?
A: GWK-HPT25-LW is a load wheel kit only; it includes two ultra-poly (70D hardness) load wheel assemblies, pre-mounted on axles with shielded high-carbon steel bearings, plus fasteners for installation. It does NOT include steer wheels (front wheels). If your HPT25 needs both front and rear wheels replaced, order GWK-HPT25-CK (complete kit) instead. If only the large rear load wheels are worn, GWK-HPT25-LW is the correct choice and is typically less expensive than the full kit.
Q: Can GWK-HPT25-LW wheels be used on non-Toyota pallet jacks?
A: No. GWK-HPT25-LW is manufactured for the exact axle diameter, bearing seat dimensions, and bracket spacing of the Toyota HPT25 frame. The mounting bolt pattern is proprietary to the HPT25. Installing these wheels on Hu Lift, Doosan, or other brands will result in misalignment, rapid bearing wear, and unsafe operation. Always verify your jack is a Toyota HPT25 before ordering. If you own a different brand, request the OEM equivalent part number.
Q: Is installation of GWK-HPT25-LW a plug-and-play operation?
A: GWK-HPT25-LW is 90 percent pre-assembled. Installation is simple: (1) Safely lift the HPT25 frame using a jack stand or wooden blocks; (2) Remove the cotter pins and fastening hardware from the old axles; (3) Slide out the worn wheel-axle assemblies; (4) Clean axle mounts and check for cracks; (5) Insert the new wheel-axle subassemblies from the kit; (6) Install fasteners and secure; (7) Verify wheels spin freely. No bearing installation or special tools beyond a wrench set are required. Installation takes 30-40 minutes. You do not need a press or arbor to complete installation.
Q: What is the expected service life of GWK-HPT25-LW wheels and when should they be replaced?
A: GWK-HPT25-LW wheels typically last 3-5 years under normal warehouse conditions (8-10 hour daily operation on smooth concrete, loads at or below frame capacity). Lifespan is reduced to 18-24 months if the jack is used on rough or outdoor surfaces, or if loads consistently exceed the design weight. Replace wheels immediately if you observe: audible grinding or squealing, visible cracks or missing chunks, flat spots on the wheel diameter, or reduced rolling efficiency. Inspect wheels weekly for damage.
Q: Are the bearings in GWK-HPT25-LW sealed or open, and can they be serviced?
A: GWK-HPT25-LW wheels are equipped with shielded high-carbon steel bearings that provide protection against dust and debris but are not fully sealed like labyrinth or contact seals. These bearings can tolerate light cleaning (wipe with a dry cloth) but should not be water-hosed or pressure-washed. Bearings cannot be relubricated; when bearing degradation occurs (grinding noise, rough spinning), the wheel-axle assembly must be replaced. Expected bearing lifespan is 3-5 years. Do not attempt to disassemble or repack bearings; replace the complete wheel assembly.
