Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the 1.875 dimension mean in the PM 1.875-105-T part number?
A: The refers to the wheel diameter. This is a 1.875 inch diameter load wheel assembly. Wheel diameter is critical for fitment, as equipment is designed with specific wheel sizes to maintain proper ground clearance and handling geometry.
Q: What is included in the PM 1.875-105-T load wheel assembly?
A: The PM 1.875-105-T is a complete load wheel assembly with integrated bearing. It includes the wheel, axle stub, and bearing cartridge as a single unit ready for operation. The bearing is a sealed cartridge design integral to the assembly.
Q: Is the bearing serviceable separately on the PM 1.875-105-T?
A: The bearing is not separately replaceable. It is a sealed cartridge integrated into the wheel assembly. When the bearing fails or wears out, the entire assembly must be replaced.
Q: What surfaces or floor types can the PM 1.875-105-T wheel handle?
A: The polyurethane compound works on concrete, smooth warehouse floors, and asphalt. For wet floors or cold storage environments, verify the compound specification. Alternative load wheel assemblies with high-traction polyurethane may be required for those applications.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of the PM 1.875-105-T load wheel assembly?
A: Load wheel lifespan depends on usage intensity, load weight, and floor conditions. A wheel typically lasts of regular industrial use before the polyurethane compound hardens or wears flat and the bearing develops play. Monitor wheel wear and rolling resistance as indicators of replacement need.
Q: How do I know when the PM 1.875-105-T wheel needs replacement?
A: Replace the wheel assembly when you notice increased rolling resistance, audible bearing noise, visible flat spots on the polyurethane tread, or excessive lateral movement. These indicate material hardening or bearing degradation.
Q: Is the PM 1.875-105-T compatible with my equipment?
A: The diameter is a standard size for electric pallet jacks and some forklift models. Cross-reference the wheel diameter and axle stub size against your equipment's original wheel specifications. Contact the equipment manufacturer or a parts specialist to confirm compatibility with your specific model.
