Product Description
The 3 inch load roller assembly (part number UL 1227) is a direct replacement for Ultra UL 5500 manual pallet jacks. Constructed with heavy-duty polyurethane tread and carbon steel hub, this load roller features dual 6204-2RS sealed bearings for smooth, quiet operation. The non-marking polyurethane formulation protects finished floors and sensitive surfaces, while beveled edges reduce uneven wear. Designed for both indoor and outdoor warehouse, dock, and material handling environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the specifications of the UL 1227 load roller?
A: The UL 1227 is a 3 inch diameter load roller assembly with heavy-duty polyurethane tread and steel hub. It features two 6204-2RS sealed bearings, beveled edges to reduce coning and wear, and is designed for indoor and outdoor use on manual pallet jacks.
Q: Which pallet jack models is the UL 1227 compatible with?
A: The UL 1227 is compatible with the Ultra UL 5500 manual pallet jack. Cross-reference part numbers include UL1227, UL 1227, Ultra 1227, 1227, and replaces UL1227-D and 1227-D. Verify your equipment model before ordering to confirm fitment.
Q: Why is the UL 1227 polyurethane tread non-marking?
A: The UL 1227 uses high-grade polyurethane formulated to prevent marking or staining on finished warehouse floors, retail environments, and other sensitive surfaces. Non-marking properties are especially important for material movement in clean facilities and temperature-controlled storage areas.
Q: How long does the UL 1227 load roller last?
A: The UL 1227 is designed for long-lasting performance under demanding warehouse conditions. The high-grade polyurethane tread and sealed bearings provide durability through years of normal material handling use. Replace when tread wears flat, cracks develop, or bearings fail.
Q: Can the UL 1227 be used both indoors and outdoors?
A: Yes, the UL 1227 is designed for both indoor and outdoor use. The polyurethane tread and steel hub with sealed bearings resist moisture and temperature variations, making it suitable for dock operations, loading areas, cold storage, and outdoor material handling environments.
Q: What does the beveled edge design of the UL 1227 accomplish?
A: The beveled edges on the UL 1227 roller reduce coning, which is the tendency of wheels to wear unevenly and roll at an angle. Even edge wear extends roller lifespan and maintains proper load distribution across the load wheel assembly.
