Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 2200173-82 polyurethane wheel?
A: The 2200173-82 is a polyurethane load wheel assembly for electric pallet jacks and ride-on lift trucks. It features sealed or rollerfor smooth rotation and durable polyurethane material for extended service life in warehouse environments.
Q: Which lift truck models is the 2200173-82 compatible with?
A: The 2200173-82 is designed for electric lift equipment from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster. Compatibility depends on wheel bore diameter, axle configuration, and pocket dimensions. Verify your equipment specifications and wheel mounting requirements before ordering.
Q: What are the advantages of polyurethane wheels?
A: Polyurethane wheels provide superior durability, higher load capacity, and exceptional resistance to wear on concrete floors. They resist oil, grease, and chemicals better than rubber, maintain consistent performance in cold storage and warm environments, and produce minimal floor marking. Typical service life is 2-4 years under normal warehouse conditions.
Q: Can the 2200173-82 be used in cold storage facilities?
A: Yes. Standard polyurethane remains flexible and maintains grip in cold storage environments down to freezing temperatures. Polyurethane performs better than rubber in temperature extremes, providing reliable traction and load support in cold storage, outdoor, and warm warehouse settings.
Q: What bearing type does the 2200173-82 use?
A: Load wheels typically use sealed ball bearings or roller bearings depending on capacity requirements. Sealed bearings require no lubrication; open bearings may need periodic greasing based on equipment specifications. Check your equipment documentation for exact bearing type and maintenance intervals.
Q: How should I store polyurethane wheels when not in use?
A: Store wheels indoors in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep them protected from oil, grease, and chemical spills. Wheels stored outdoors may degrade faster due to UV exposure and temperature fluctuations. Inspect before reinstalling to ensure no surface damage or deformation.
Q: What are the dimensions and load rating for the 2200173-82 polyurethane wheel?
A: The 2200173-82 is a polyurethane load wheel for electric lift trucks. Dimensions include wheel diameter, width, and bore size. Load capacity varies by wheel thicknesstype. Confirm your electric pallet jack or ride-on truck model, wheel mounting type, and load requirement before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
Q: Which electric lift truck models does the 2200173-82 polyurethane wheel fit?
A: The 2200173-82 is compatible with multiple electric pallet jacks and stand-on ride trucks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster. Compatibility depends on wheel pocket dimensionstype, and axle diameter. Verify wheel bore, axle configuration, and overall diameter match your equipment specifications.
Q: What are the advantages of polyurethane versus rubber for this load wheel?
A: Polyurethane wheels offer superior durability, load capacity, and resistance to wear on concrete and rough floors. They also resist oil, grease, and chemical exposure better than rubber. Polyurethane maintains consistent hardness in both warm and cold environments, providing reliable traction and reduced floor marking. Lifespan is typically 2 to 4 years under normal warehouse use.
Q: Can the 2200173-82 wheel be used in cold storage or wet environments?
A: Standard polyurethane is suitable for cold storage down to freezing. For wet floors, verify the wheel compound is rated for low-traction surfaces. If your application includes consistent moisture or freezing conditions, request a high-traction polyurethane variant. These wheels maintain grip and flexibility better than rubber in temperature extremes.
Q: What bearing type is standard in the 2200173-82 wheel assembly?
A: Load wheels typically ship with sealed ballor rollerdepending on configuration.type determines load capacity and maintenance interval.require no ongoing lubrication; openneed periodic greasing every 250 to 500 operating hours. Confirmspecification with your lift truck OEM documentation.
