Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the BG 111-078 steer wheel and what equipment does it fit?
A: The BG 111-078 is a steer wheel constructed from polyamide (nylon) thermoplastic for Blue Giant manual pallet jacks. It provides steering control and directional movement on warehouse floors.
Q: What material is the BG 111-078 wheel made from and why?
A: The BG 111-078 is made from polyamide (nylon), a durable thermoplastic that resists wear, absorbs vibration, and provides good traction on smooth concrete and polished floors without damaging floor surfaces.
Q: Does the BG 111-078 work on wet floors or in cold storage?
A: Standard polyamide wheels like the BG 111-078 perform adequately on dry floors. For wet floors or cold storage below 32F, verify traction requirements with your operations team. Some nylon compounds lose grip in cold environments.
Q: How long does a BG 111-078 wheel typically last?
A: In normal warehouse use, the BG 111-078 typically lasts 1-3 years depending on floor condition and daily cycle count. Replace if the wheel shows flat spots, cracks, or develops a permanent wobble.
Q: What is the difference between BG 111-078 and BG 111-078-N-A?
A: The BG 111-078 is a single steer wheel. The BG 111-078-N-A is a complete steer wheel assembly that includes the nylon wheel plus integrated mounting components and is pre-configured for specific Blue Giant models.
