Durarun 95A Poly Load Wheel for Electric Lift Trucks

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the 95A durometer specification on the C-33746 load wheel?
A: The 95A durometer rating specifies the Shore A hardness of the polyurethane tread material, indicating moderate hardness and durability. This rating provides excellent abrasion resistance while maintaining adequate traction on warehouse floors. 95A polyurethane offers the ideal balance between load capacity and rolling efficiency for electric lift trucks.

Q: Why is the C-33746 a solid, non-pneumatic load wheel?
A: Solid polyurethane construction means the wheel is molded as one complete piece without internal air chambers. This design eliminates puncture hazards, requires no inflation maintenance, and delivers consistent performance across temperature ranges. Non-pneumatic wheels are preferred in warehouses where reliability and minimal maintenance are critical.

Q: What is the bearing construction on the C-33746?
A: The C-33746 features sealed alloy steel raceway bearings that protect the bearing races and balls from dust and moisture contamination. The sealed design reduces lubrication frequency, extends bearing service life, and maintains smooth rolling performance throughout the wheel's operational life.

Q: Is the C-33746 suitable for cold storage operations?
A: Yes. The solid polyurethane construction maintains flexibility and durability at low temperatures without becoming brittle. The sealed bearing enclosure prevents moisture and condensation buildup common in cold storage environments, making it ideal for frozen warehouse operations.

Q: Which electric lift truck manufacturers use the C-33746 load wheel?
A: The C-33746 is compatible with major electric lift truck manufacturers including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Jungheinrich, and Clark. Verify the wheel, tread, and bore against your specific equipment before ordering to ensure proper fit and mounting.

Q: How does the low rolling resistance of the C-33746 benefit warehouse operations?
A: Lower rolling resistance reduces the energy required to move loads, improving battery efficiency on electric lift trucks and extending operating time between charges. This efficiency benefit also reduces wear on the drive motor and extends overall equipment service life.

Q: What surfaces is the C-33746 designed for?
A: The C-33746 polyurethane load wheel is engineered for smooth, clean warehouse floors including polished concrete, epoxy-coated, and sealed concrete surfaces. Performance on rougher outdoor surfaces or unfinished concrete may vary; verify application requirements with equipment manufacturer documentation.
