Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the Shore durometer rating for GWK-102XM-LW load wheels, and why does it matter for my application?
A: GWK-102XM-LW features 95A Shore durometer polyurethane per ASTM D2240. This hardness rating provides a balance between durability and floor protection. 95A wheels handle rough concrete and industrial floors without excessive wear, yet softer than 97-98A formulations, so they do not mark polished or display flooring. Choose 95A if your pallet jack moves between multiple environments.
Q: Will GWK-102XM-LW wheels fit Raymond walkie pallet trucks other than the 102XM model?
A: GWK-102XM-LW is engineered specifically for Raymond 102XM Walkie Pallet Trucks. Cross-fitting to other Raymond models (e.g., 100XM, 110XM) is not recommended without verifying axle diameter, wheel bore size, and load capacity ratings. Contact the manufacturer or a parts specialist to confirm compatibility before ordering for non-102XM equipment.
Q: What installation tools and steps are required to replace GWK-102XM-LW wheels?
A: Installation requires a socket set, jack stand, and jack to lift the pallet truck safely. Remove the retaining nut on each wheel axle, slide off the old wheel assembly, clean the axle shaft, and slide on the new GWK-102XM-LW wheel. Reinstall the retaining nut and tighten firmly. Do not over-tighten, as this restricts wheel rotation. Verify all wheels spin freely before returning the truck to service. Estimated time: 15 to 20 minutes per pair.
Q: How long does a GWK-102XM-LW wheel kit typically last in heavy-duty warehouse operations?
A: Lifespan depends on load weight, floor type, and usage frequency. In continuous warehouse operations moving 5000+ pound loads on rough concrete, expect 18 to 30 months before noticeable wear. In light to moderate use on clean floors, wheels can last 3 to 5 years. Inspect wheels quarterly for flat spots, cracks, or bearing noise. Replace if wheels lose round shape or produce grinding sounds.
Q: Are GWK-102XM-LW wheels compatible with cold storage environments?
A: Yes. The high-performance polyurethane formulation resists hardening and brittleness in sub-zero cold storage conditions. Material composition provides consistent grip and durability at temperatures as low as minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit. However, inspect wheels more frequently in cold storage because thermal contraction can loosen axle fasteners. Check nut torque monthly.
