Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What equipment is the CT 972081 load wheel designed for?
A: The CT 972081 is a replacement load wheel with 95A polyurethane tread designed for electric lift trucks and pallet jacks. Confirm your equipment model and wheel bore diameter match the CT 972081 specifications before ordering.

Q: What are the dimensions and tread material specifications for the CT 972081?
A: The CT 972081 features industrial-grade 95A polyurethane tread. Key specifications include wheel diameter, tread width, and bore size. Consult the product datasheet for exact dimensional details and load rating capacity.

Q: Does the CT 972081 come with bearings and hardware pre-installed?
A: Yes, the CT 972081 includes pre-installed sealed bearings and necessary mounting hardware. This reduces assembly time and ensures proper bearing installation from the outset.

Q: How does the 95A polyurethane tread on the CT 972081 perform on different floor surfaces?
A: The 95A polyurethane compound provides good grip on standard concrete and tile floors. For wet floor or cold storage applications, consider wheels with higher-traction polyurethane formulations designed specifically for those environments.

Q: What is the expected service life of the CT 972081 load wheel?
A: Wheel lifespan depends on tread material hardness, operating hours, load weight, and floor conditions. Monitor tread wear regularly and replace when smooth or when equipment handling performance declines.

Q: Are there other Caterpillar load wheel models equivalent to the CT 972081?
A: The CT 972081 is a Caterpillar original part. Cross-reference your current wheel part number and specifications to confirm fitment before substituting with alternative part numbers.
