Product Description
Polyurethane Load Wheel Assembly
This direct replacement load wheel assembly features a 70D durometer polyurethane compound designed for Yale electric lift trucks and pallet jacks. The 70D hardness rating provides an excellent balance of load capacity, grip, and durability for typical indoor warehouse and dock operations. Replace when visible wear, flat spots, or diameter reduction occurs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the YL 220170653 and what equipment does it fit?
A: The YL 220170653 is a polyurethane load wheel assembly with a 70D durometer rating, designed as a direct replacement for Yale electric lift trucks and pallet jacks. Verify your specific equipment model and wheel mounting specifications before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
Q: What does 70D durometer mean?
A: Durometer measures the hardness of polyurethane wheels on a scale of 0-100D. A 70D wheel balances load capacity with grip and wear resistance, making it suitable for general warehouse and dock environments. Softer compounds (lower numbers) provide more grip but wear faster; harder compounds last longer but may reduce traction.
Q: How long does this load wheel typically last?
A: Service life typically ranges from 2 to 4 years in moderate-use environments, depending on floor conditions and usage intensity. High-traffic warehouses may experience shorter lifespan; light-duty applications may extend it. Replace when you notice flat spots, reduced diameter, cracks, or uneven tread wear.
Q: What maintenance is required?
A: Inspect wheels quarterly for debris, cracks, flat spots, or uneven wear. Clean wheels and axles to remove dirt buildup that can affect rotation. Ensure wheel bearings rotate freely without resistance. Replace wheels when diameter noticeably decreases or tread surface becomes uneven, as this affects truck handling and stability.
Q: Are there equivalent part numbers from other manufacturers?
A: Equivalent part numbers depend on your specific Yale model generation. Different Yale models may use different wheel assemblies. Contact us with your equipment model number for confirmed cross-reference equivalents or compatible alternatives.
Q: What happens if I use a wheel with a different durometer than specified?
A: Using a non-matching durometer can affect load capacity, handling characteristics, and floor compatibility. Always consult your equipment documentation and replace with the factory-specified durometer rating for your Yale model to ensure safety and proper operation.
