Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the advantage of an assembly with integrated hub versus a press-on tire alone?
A: The SU 9X5X5-SF-P-A includes the hub pre-mounted and tested, eliminating the heat-press installation step. This saves labor and reduces installation errors. The hub and tire are factory-aligned and balanced as a unit. Simply bolt the assembly to your equipment mounting. Typical unit weight is 16 lbs.
Q: What are the dimensional specifications for this hub assembly?
A: The tire dimensions are 9.000 inch outside diameter by 5.000 inch width (228.60mm x 127.00mm). The bore diameter is 5.000 inches. The assembly is rated for 3020 lbs maximum load at 6 mph. Verify these dimensions match your equipment hub mounting before purchase.
Q: Is this assembly compatible with my lift truck that currently uses a different brand hub?
A: Compatibility depends on your equipment hub bolt pattern, bore diameter, and shaft dimensions. This assembly has a 5.000 inch bore. Before ordering, measure your existing wheel hub bolt pattern and bore size. Contact the equipment manufacturer with your unit serial number to confirm compatibility. Forcing an incompatible assembly will damage the mounting brackets.
Q: What polyurethane elastomer construction means and its durability advantages?
A: Polyurethane elastomer construction is a solid, castable synthetic rubber that provides excellent wear resistance, chemical resistance, and impact absorption. Unlike solid rubber tires, polyurethane does not harden or crack in cold storage, resists ozone and UV, and maintains consistent grip across a wide temperature range. This assembly is engineered specifically for indoor warehouse and electric lift truck service.
Q: Can I replace just the tire if the hub becomes damaged?
A: If the hub is damaged but the tire is intact, you would need to order a replacement assembly. The hub and tire are bonded as a unit. Attempting to separate them will destroy both components. However, the bare tire from this assembly (part SU 9X5X5-SF-P) can be press-fit onto your existing undamaged hub if you have the proper heating and pressing equipment available.
Q: What is the installation process for this hub assembly?
A: No heating or pressing is required. Inspect the mounting surface on your equipment for cleanliness and damage. Align the assembly hub bore with your equipment shaft. Install mounting bolts according to your equipment manual torque specifications, typically 40 to 60 foot-pounds. Tighten bolts in a cross pattern. Do not overtighten as this can strip threads or crack the hub.
