Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does GWK-VJ-CK fit both Valu-Jack VJ-5500 and VJ-6600 models?
A: Yes. GWK-VJ-CK is engineered for both Valu-Jack VJ-5500 and VJ-6600 standard manual hydraulic pallet jacks. Axle spacing and wheel bore diameter are identical across both models. Verify your model plate matches VJ-5500 or VJ-6600 before installation. Different frame generations may have different specifications—always confirm serial range compatibility.
Q: What wheel specifications are included in GWK-VJ-CK?
A: GWK-VJ-CK contains dual ultra-polyurethane load roller assemblies at 70D Shore hardness measuring 3 inches diameter by 3.75 inches width, dual polyurethane steer wheel assemblies measuring 7 inches diameter by 2 inches width, precision ball bearings pre-installed on all assemblies, carbon steel axles, and complete Grade 8 fastener hardware for secure mounting.
Q: Are all wheels in GWK-VJ-CK the same polyurethane grade?
A: No. Load rollers are ultra-polyurethane at 70D Shore hardness for floor contact and load support. Steer wheels are standard polyurethane also at 70 Shore D. The difference in compound formulation means load wheels resist floor wear better while steer wheels provide directional control. Do not interchange the wheel types.
Q: What is the installation procedure for GWK-VJ-CK?
A: Lower the jack fully and block the frame securely. Remove locking pins or cotter pins from both axle ends. Slide old wheel assemblies off axles. Clean axles with a dry cloth—do not use solvents. Slide new GWK-VJ-CK load wheels onto front axle and steer wheels onto rear, aligning bearing housings. Reinstall pins and torque fasteners to Valu-Jack specs. Test smooth rotation before loading.
Q: How long will GWK-VJ-CK last with standard warehouse loading?
A: Under normal warehouse duty at rated capacity, GWK-VJ-CK wheels typically provide 2 to 3 years of service. Lifespan is reduced by rough or outdoor floors, overloading, or uneven load distribution. Inspect quarterly for flat spotting or surface cracks. If load wheel diameter drops below 2.85 inches or steering becomes notchy, replacement is required.
Q: What maintenance is needed to extend GWK-VJ-CK wheel life?
A: Keep floors clean of sharp debris, oil, and chemical spills that degrade polyurethane. Distribute loads evenly on the pallet. Rotate the jack frequently to avoid continuous steering strain in one direction. Sealed bearings do not need routine greasing. Inspect axles for bent or scored surfaces monthly—damaged axles must be replaced to prevent premature wheel wear.
