Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the L009817 polyurethane wheel and what equipment does it fit?
A: The L009817 is a polyurethane wheel designed for electric lift truck and pallet jack applications. It is engineered for compatibility with electric equipment from multiple manufacturers. Verify your specific equipment model matches the compatibility specifications before ordering.
Q: What are the material properties of the L009817 polyurethane wheel?
A: The L009817 is manufactured from polyurethane elastomer, a synthetic rubber material that provides excellent load-bearing capacity and floor protection. Polyurethane wheels are non-marking, meaning they will not leave tire marks on clean floors or finished surfaces.
Q: Is the L009817 suitable for outdoor use?
A: The L009817 polyurethane wheel is designed primarily for indoor electric lift truck applications. Outdoor use exposes the wheel to direct sunlight, which can degrade polyurethane material over time. For outdoor equipment or extended exterior storage, verify that the material composition is UV-stabilized or select an alternative wheel material rated for outdoor use.
Q: What inspection criteria indicate when the L009817 should be replaced?
A: Replace the L009817 when you observe significant tread wear, flat spots on the wheel surface, visible cracks or chunks missing from the polyurethane, or if the wheel wobbles or does not spin freely. These conditions indicate the wheel no longer provides adequate load support or floor protection.
Q: What is the typical service life of the L009817?
A: The L009817 polyurethane wheel typically lasts 12 to 18 months in normal electric lift truck service. Actual lifespan depends on daily usage hours, load weight, floor surface conditions, and environmental factors. High-use operations may require replacement every 8 to 12 months.
Q: How should the L009817 be stored when not in use?
A: Store the L009817 polyurethane wheel in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight, extreme heat, and chemical exposure. Prolonged UV exposure and high temperatures can cause polyurethane to harden or degrade. Keep wheels in climate-controlled storage when possible to maximize shelf life.
