Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 8-inch ultra-poly steer wheel designed for?
A: The BG 020-034-A is designed for Blue Giant PT-50 and PT-55 series manual pallet jacks. It is an 8-inch diameter steer wheel with ultra-poly tread and aluminum hub, suitable for steering axle applications in manual pallet handling equipment.
Q: What are the material specifications for this steer wheel?
A: The BG 020-034-A features ultra-poly tread bonded to a clear anodized aluminum hub. This combination provides superior floor grip and reduces marking on polished surfaces. The aluminum hub dissipates heat effectively during extended use compared to solid nylon alternatives.
Q: What cross-reference part numbers are equivalent to the BG 020-034-A?
A: The BG 020-034-A is equivalent to BG 020-034-A-ST and BG 020-034-A-HD. It supersedes the older BG 020-034-N model. Any of these part numbers can be substituted for compatibility with PT-50 and PT-55 pallet jacks.
Q: What is the wear tolerance specification for this wheel?
A: The BG 020-034-A has a 0.25-inch wear tolerance specification. The wheel should be replaced when tread thickness reduces by 0.25 inches. Monitor cumulative wear regularly and replace when tolerance is reached to maintain optimal steering response.
Q: Is the bearing pre-installed and ready to use?
A: Yes. The BG 020-034-A comes with precision bearings pre-installed. The 1-inch bearing bore is compatible with cotter pin axle retention systems used on PT-50 and PT-55 manual pallet jacks, making it ready to mount.
Q: How should I store this wheel assembly when not in use?
A: Store the wheel in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the bearing bore covered to prevent dirt and debris accumulation. Store in an upright position to prevent warping of the tread.
