Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does GWK-MPB040AB-LW fit Yale MPB040AB electric pallet jacks?
A: Yes. GWK-MPB040AB-LW is the OEM wheel kit engineered for Yale MPB040AB electric pallet jacks. It provides direct fitment without modification. If you require an extended variant with larger durometer wheels, the alternative part number is GWK-MPB040AB-LW-XL.
Q: What bearing and fastener grades are supplied in this wheel kit?
A: GWK-MPB040AB-LW includes sealed precision ball bearings for smooth rotation under load and reduced maintenance intervals. All mounting fasteners are Grade 8 hardened steel, providing corrosion resistance and preventing fastener loosening under vibration. The axles are hardened steel for durability.
Q: What wheel durometer (hardness) is used on the standard GWK-MPB040AB-LW?
A: Standard GWK-MPB040AB-LW wheels feature 95A durometer Durarun polyurethane compound. This hardness rating provides good grip on smooth warehouse floors while resisting abrasion. If you need harder wheels (97A durometer) for heavy-use environments or rougher surfaces, order GWK-MPB040AB-LW-XL instead.
Q: Is the kit factory-assembled or do I need to assemble it?
A: GWK-MPB040AB-LW is factory-assembled with all components pre-installed and tested. You receive dual wheels with bearings, axles, and fasteners ready for installation on your pallet jack. No assembly is required. Simply remove the old wheel assembly and bolt on the new kit using the supplied hardware.
Q: What maintenance is required after installing GWK-MPB040AB-LW?
A: Sealed bearing wheels require minimal maintenance. Inspect fasteners monthly and retorque if needed. Clean wheels with mild soap and water to prevent buildup that can reduce grip. Do not over-torque fasteners as this can damage sealed bearings. If wheels become difficult to roll or make grinding noise, the bearings may be damaged and the wheel kit should be replaced.
