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 roller bearings for 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.
