Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the -P-A designation mean for the MU 90165-P-A?
A: The -P-A suffix indicates polyurethane tread on a steel (not nylon) core hub. The P-A version is engineered for high-durability, chemical-resistant operation in material handling environments where a steel core provides superior load-bearing capacity and vibration resistance compared to nylon hubs.
Q: What is the core material of the MU 90165-P-A?
A: The MU 90165-P-A uses a cast iron core with a machined steel finish. The polyurethane tread is overmolded directly onto the steel core. Cast iron cores provide maximum rigidity and heat dissipation in continuous manual material handling duty, especially in warehouses with frequent push-pull cycles.
Q: Which Multiton pallet jack models are compatible with the MU 90165-P-A?
A: The MU 90165-P-A fits Multiton TM, M, J, and S series manual pallet jacks. It maintains the same 8 inch diameter and 2 inch width as the standard MU 90165. Alternate part number references include MU 90165PA and MU 90165 P A. Verify your jack bearing bore diameter (20mm or 25mm) matches before ordering.
Q: What sealed ball bearings are included in the MU 90165-P-A?
A: The MU 90165-P-A includes two precision sealed ball bearings. Sealed design protects bearings from dust and moisture in warehouse environments. The steel core hub distributes load evenly across both bearings, reducing bearing wear compared to softer hub materials.
Q: Is the MU 90165-P-A suitable for wet or cold storage use?
A: The MU 90165-P-A with polyurethane tread and sealed bearings performs well in damp environments and cold storage above 20 degrees Fahrenheit. Steel core construction resists corrosion and maintains rigidity in temperature swings. For extreme freezer applications below 0 degrees or high-traction wet-floor needs, consult with us about specialized elastomer options.
Q: How long does the MU 90165-P-A assembly typically last in service?
A: The MU 90165-P-A is designed for extended service in continuous material handling duty. The cast iron core and sealed bearings typically deliver 30 to 42 months of service life in moderate to heavy warehouse operations. Regular inspection at 12-month intervals identifies bearing wear or polyurethane tread degradation early, maximizing equipment uptime.
