Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the exact dimensions of the C-20196 industrial polyurethane wheel?
A: The C-20196 wheel is a direct replacement for electric lift truck and electric pallet truck wheel assemblies. Verify mounting flange compatibility and axle diameter against your equipment documentation before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
Q: Which electric lift trucks and electric pallet jacks can use the C-20196 wheel?
A: The C-20196 is compatible with electric lift truck and electric pallet jack models from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Jungheinrich, and other major manufacturers. The wheel assembly mounts to standard wheel positions on powered material handling equipment. Verify axle size and mounting configuration against your specific equipment documentation before purchase.
Q: Why is 95A durometer hardness specified for the C-20196?
A: The 95A Shore A durometer rating on the C-20196 provides a balance between load capacity and rolling resistance for warehouse applications. This hardness level resists abrasion and cuts from rough floor conditions while maintaining adequate traction on smooth concrete. The polyurethane compound is oil- and abrasion-resistant, extending service life in demanding warehouse and material handling environments including exposure to hydraulic fluids and debris.
Q: How do sealed precision bearings affect the C-20196 performance and lifespan?
A: The sealed precision bearings on the C-20196 reduce friction and extend wheel life by protecting the bearing races from water, dust, and warehouse contaminants. Sealed bearings require no periodic lubrication and maintain consistent rolling resistance throughout their service life. This design is ideal for wet environments and frequent washdown applications common in food processing and cold storage warehouses.
Q: Is the C-20196 suitable for cold storage and outdoor warehouse applications?
A: Yes, the C-20196 polyurethane wheel is designed for cold storage and demanding warehouse applications. The polyurethane tread maintains flexibility at low temperatures and does not become brittle like some rubber compounds. The oil- and abrasion-resistant construction resists degradation from typical warehouse chemicals and outdoor exposure. Verify temperature ranges and specific environmental conditions match your application requirements.
