Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What material composition does the 83970-050 wheel feature?
A: The 83970-050 has a polyurethane tread with 95 Shore A durometer bonded to a polyolefin core. This construction provides chemical resistance, low operational noise, and high durability suitable for industrial material handling environments.
Q: What are the durability and performance characteristics of the 83970-050?
A: The 95 Shore A polyurethane tread compound offers high wear resistance and load-bearing capacity. The polyolefin core adds chemical resistance, making this wheel suitable for warehouses, cold storage, and environments with mild chemical exposure.
Q: Is the 83970-050 suitable for electric lift truck applications?
A: The 83970-050 is designed specifically for electric lift truck applications and standard material handling equipment. The low operational noise characteristic makes it suitable for indoor warehouse and facility operations.
Q: How does the polyolefin core differ from steel core wheels?
A: The polyolefin core is lighter than steel and offers enhanced chemical resistance, making it ideal for cold storage and light chemical exposure environments. Steel core wheels provide greater structural strength for higher load applications and rougher floor conditions.
Q: What makes the 83970-050 suitable for industrial material handling?
A: The combination of 95 Shore A polyurethane tread hardness, chemical resistance, and low noise generation makes the 83970-050 effective for sustained indoor material handling operations. The polyolefin core maintains performance in temperature-controlled environments including cold storage.
