Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What models does the GWK-B60ZHD-LW-XL fit?
A: This load wheel kit is engineered for Hyster B60ZHD series pallet jacks. Do not use on standard B60Z models, as the HD variant has different mounting specifications. Cross-reference your pallet jack nameplate to confirm model compatibility before ordering.
Q: What is the material specification for the wheels and bearings?
A: The kit features high-performance 97A polyurethane load wheels with non-marking, non-shattering properties. Bearings are constructed from chromium alloy steel bearing races, providing superior strength and durability under heavy load. The combination ensures quiet, efficient operation and extended service life.
Q: Why are these wheels suitable for sensitive surfaces?
A: The 97A polyurethane has a non-marking formulation that does not leave scuffs, discoloration, or residue on finished floors. The non-shattering design means small fragments do not break off and contaminate sensitive environments. This makes the wheels appropriate for retail, pharmaceutical, and food processing facilities.
Q: What is the difference between the standard GWK-B60ZHD-LW and the XL version?
A: The XL version features 97A polyurethane (compared to 95A in the standard) and chromium alloy steel bearing races for enhanced durability. The harder 97A compound extends wheel life and is better suited for high-volume operations. Both are designed for the B60ZHD platform but provide different performance levels.
Q: Is installation plug-and-play on the B60ZHD pallet jack?
A: Yes, this kit is designed as a direct bolt-on replacement. The wheels and axles align with existing B60ZHD mounting points without modification. Installation requires basic tools (wrenches, socket set) and takes approximately 30-45 minutes. The fasteners are included in the kit.
Q: How long will these wheels last in a high-volume environment?
A: In high-volume operations with 8-12 hours daily use, expect 12-18 months of service life. The 97A polyurethane and chromium alloy bearings provide better longevity than standard kits. Inspect wheels monthly for wear patterns. Replace immediately if you notice uneven wear, cracking, or a reduction in maneuverability.
