9988-006

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What equipment is the 9988-006 polyurethane wheel compatible with?
A: The 9988-006 is compatible with electric pallet jacks and electric lift trucks from major manufacturers including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and similar brands. Verify wheel dimensions and mounting specifications match your specific equipment model before ordering.

Q: What are the material properties of the 9988-006 wheel?
A: The 9988-006 features high-grade red polyurethane tread with 95A Shore durometer hardness, providing durable traction. The wheel includes sealed precision ball bearings and a machined steel core for strength and stability in warehouse environments.

Q: Why choose 95A Shore durometer polyurethane for this wheel?
A: 95A Shore durometer provides balanced hardness and resilience, delivering consistent traction performance across standard warehouse and facility floors. This hardness level resists wear effectively while maintaining good contact with floor surfaces.

Q: How do sealed ball bearings improve performance?
A: Sealed precision ball bearings reduce friction and enable smooth wheel rotation. The seals keep contaminants and moisture out, extending bearing life and reducing maintenance compared to open bearing designs.

Q: What is the expected lifespan of the 9988-006 wheel?
A: Wheel lifespan depends on load weight, floor surface type, and usage hours. The durable polyurethane compound and sealed bearings provide extended service life. Replace the wheel when tread depth decreases significantly, bearing noise increases, or lateral wobbling occurs during operation.

Q: How should the 9988-006 wheel be stored?
A: Store wheels in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Prolonged exposure to UV light, extreme heat, or moisture can degrade polyurethane. Store indoors when not in use to maintain material integrity and bearing condition.
