Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the SW 44495-003 and what does it consist of?
A: The SW 44495-003 is a complete steel wheel assembly designed for industrial material handling equipment. It includes the steel wheel hub, axle connection points, and associated mounting components as a single integrated unit.
Q: Which equipment types and brands use the SW 44495-003?
A: This steel wheel assembly is compatible with electric pallet jacks and motorized material handling equipment from manufacturers including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and Jungheinrich. Confirm your equipment model and mounting specifications before ordering.
Q: What are the durability characteristics of a steel wheel assembly?
A: Steel wheel assemblies offer superior durability and load capacity compared to polyurethane wheels. Steel does not degrade from UV exposure, chemical contact, or extreme temperature fluctuations, making it ideal for harsh warehouse environments, cold storage, and outdoor operations.
Q: What maintenance is required for the SW 44495-003 assembly?
A: Steel wheel assemblies require regular inspection for corrosion, rust, or bent wheel hubs. Lubricate bearing points if the assembly includes exposed bearings. Check mounting bolts and connections for tightness. In corrosive environments, apply protective coating to prevent rust formation.
Q: How does the steel wheel assembly perform on different floor surfaces?
A: Steel wheels provide firm contact and precise handling on hard, level concrete floors. They may produce noise on hard surfaces and can mark or damage softer flooring. Steel wheels do not grip wet or icy floors as effectively as polyurethane alternatives, which can impact traction in cold storage or wet environments.
