Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between GWK-HJ55-LW and the complete kit GWK-HJ55-CK?
A: GWK-HJ55-LW contains only load wheel assemblies with bearings, axles, and fasteners. GWK-HJ55-CK includes both load wheels and steer wheels. Order GWK-HJ55-LW if your steer wheels are still serviceable; order GWK-HJ55-CK if you need a full wheel replacement.
Q: What wheel diameter does GWK-HJ55-LW provide?
A: GWK-HJ55-LW load wheels measure 2.87 inches in diameter with 70 Shore D ultra-polyurethane construction. Verify this diameter against your original wheels before ordering to ensure frame clearance and proper jack handling geometry.
Q: Are GWK-HJ55-LW bearings sealed or open?
A: GWK-HJ55-LW includes sealed bearings. Sealed construction prevents water ingress and debris contamination, reducing maintenance intervals. Do not over-pack sealed bearings with additional grease, as over-lubrication causes bearing drag and premature wear.
Q: How do I diagnose if my HJ55 load wheels need replacement?
A: Inspect for flat spotting, visible cracks, or material separation. Manually rotate the jack without lifting and listen for grinding. Spin each wheel by hand; if it does not complete at least two full rotations before stopping, bearings are worn. If wheels no longer grip dry concrete or your jack binds during normal operation, order GWK-HJ55-LW.
Q: Can I replace only the left or right load wheel assembly individually?
A: No. Always replace load wheels in pairs to maintain balanced rolling characteristics and prevent binding or pulling to one side. Unequal wheel wear or hardness creates steering issues and can damage your pallet jack frame over time.
