Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the exact bore diameter and depth for SU S248-XL, and what hub types does it fit?
A: SU S248-XL has a bore outside diameter of 1.9795 inches with a bore depth of 0.912 inches and hub width of 6 inches. This wheel fits standard electric lift truck and pallet jack assemblies using a 1.875 inch inside diameter hub. Always verify your existing wheel bore before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Q: Can SU S248-XL replace worn Cushothane wheels on older electric lifts, and what clearance should I check?
A: Yes, SU S248-XL can replace equivalent Cushothane load wheels on electric lifts. When replacing, confirm the 3.25 inch outside diameter fits your axle assembly without interference with brakes, suspension, or frame. Measure side-to-side clearance to verify the 6 inch width does not bind. If clearance is questionable, measure your original wheel and frame before installation.
Q: What load capacity and surface performance can I expect from the Cushothane EZ material on SU S248-XL?
A: Cushothane EZ provides good shock absorption and moderate load handling on smooth warehouse floors. Load capacity depends on your lift truck model and axle assembly. For precise load limits, consult your lift truck manual or the wheel assembly specifications. Cushothane EZ performs best indoors on clean, dry floors and degrades faster in wet or outdoor conditions.
Q: How do I know when SU S248-XL needs replacement due to wear?
A: Replace SU S248-XL when the outside diameter measures less than 3 inches, when flat spots appear across the surface, or when the wheel wobbles or vibrates during operation. Inspect the bore for cracks or material separation. If the bore has enlarged beyond 1.9795 inches, the wheel cannot be reused and must be replaced as a set on both sides of the axle.
Q: What is the metric equivalent for SU S248-XL dimensions, and will it fit metric-spec equipment?
A: SU S248-XL measures 82.55mm diameter by 152.40mm width. This wheel is designed for standard US lift truck axles and hub assemblies. Metric equipment may have different bore diameters and hub widths. Verify your equipment specifications before purchase; metric conversions alone do not guarantee fitment.
Q: Should I purchase SU S248-XL alone or SU S248-XL-A assembly, and what is the difference?
A: SU S248-XL is the wheel only; SU S248-XL-A is a complete load wheel assembly including the hub and fasteners. Order SU S248-XL if you already have a hub and can reuse it. Order SU S248-XL-A if you need a complete assembly ready to install or if your existing hub is damaged or worn beyond tolerance.
