BJ 078217

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the specifications for the BJ 078217 polyurethane load wheel?
A: The BJ 078217 is a polyurethane load wheel assembly with a 3.375-inch nominal diameter. It features an industrial-grade alloy steel core, sealed bearings, and abrasion-resistant polyurethane tread. This assembly is designed for high-durability performance in electric walkie lift trucks.

Q: Which electric lift truck models is the BJ 078217 compatible with?
A: The BJ 078217 is engineered for Big Joe PDH series electric walkie lift trucks. Verify that your equipment model falls within the PDH series range and confirm that the 3.375-inch diameter and bearing bore specifications match your axle configuration before ordering.

Q: What advantages does polyurethane offer compared to rubber or steel wheels?
A: Polyurethane wheels provide superior traction and floor protection while resisting abrasion and wear better than rubber. The sealed bearings prevent dirt and moisture contamination, extending bearing life. Polyurethane is also more resistant to oils, chemicals, and temperature extremes than rubber.

Q: Are sealed bearings included in the BJ 078217 assembly?
A: Yes, the BJ 078217 includes sealed bearings as part of the complete assembly. Sealed bearings reduce maintenance requirements by preventing contamination from dust and moisture in warehouse environments.

Q: What is the expected lifespan of the BJ 078217 wheel?
A: The BJ 078217 is engineered for high-durability performance, with polyurethane and sealed bearings extending operational life compared to standard wheels. Actual lifespan depends on load cycles, floor conditions, and maintenance. Inspect wheels regularly for tread wear and bearing looseness.
