Polyurethane Wheel for Electric Lift Truck

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the dimensions of the 800114569?
A: It features a 14-hole mounting pattern with evenly spaced holes and a press-on, precision-bonded assembly. This metric-based design is common in European and Japanese-made lift trucks.

Q: What is the core material and why is cast iron ISO QT450 specified?
A: The 800114569 uses a cast iron ISO Grade QT450 core, which is a nodular (ductile) cast iron. This material provides high strength, rigidity, and impact resistance needed for heavy-duty industrial use. QT450 cores withstand high loads and repetitive stress from constant pallet movements. This specification is typical for equipment used in demanding warehouse, freezer, and outdoor material handling operations.

Q: Is the 800114569 rated for low-temperature and freezer environments?
A: Yes, the 800114569 is engineered for heavy-duty industrial applications including low-temperature and freezer operation. The high-resilience polyurethane tread sourced from Bayer (Germany) and Mitsubishi (Japan) maintains grip and flexibility at sub-zero temperatures. The hardness and QT450 cast iron core are optimized for cold storage duty where equipment must perform reliably below freezing for extended periods.

Q: What does press-on, precision-bonded assembly mean for the 800114569?
A: Press-on construction means the polyurethane tread is mechanically pressed onto the cast iron core using precision tooling, creating a permanent bond. This method does not use adhesive and results in superior abrasion resistance and slip resistance compared to glued assemblies. The precision bonding process ensures the tread remains secure even under extreme temperature cycling and heavy loading typical of freezer applications.

Q: Which lift truck brands use 14-hole load wheels like the 800114569?
A: The 14-hole mounting pattern of the 800114569 is used by European and Japanese lift truck manufacturers including Jungheinrich, Linde, BT, Toyota, and Mitsubishi. This metric-based design is distinct from North American equipment patterns. Verify your equipment has a 14-hole hub with 47 mm bore before ordering. Mixing incompatible hole patterns will prevent proper fitment.

Q: How should I store the 800114569 to maximize its service life?
A: Store the 800114569 in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Protect from oil, grease, and harsh chemicals that can degrade polyurethane. Keep away from ozone sources and high-heat environments. Proper storage conditions help preserve the tread material and extend the wheel's operational lifespan in both standard and freezer applications.

Q: What are the metric and imperial dimensions of the 800114569?
A: The 800114569 has an (approximately 3.15 inches), tread width (2.76 inches), and 47 mm bore diameter (1.85 inches). It features a 14-hole mounting pattern with evenly spaced holes and a press-on, precision-bonded assembly. This metric-based design is common in European and Japanese-made lift trucks.
