Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is included in the load wheel kit for Jet PTW pallet jacks?
A: The kit includes two ultra-polyurethane 70D load wheel assemblies, sealed ball bearings, steel axles, and all necessary fasteners for a complete replacement set.
Q: Does this load wheel kit fit all Jet pallet jack models?
A: No, this kit is designed exclusively for Jet model PTW. Other Jet models use different wheel assemblies with varying bore sizes and axle specifications. Always verify your model number before ordering.
Q: How long do load wheels typically last?
A: Load wheel lifespan depends on usage intensity, floor conditions, and maintenance. Wheels used on rough warehouse floors may last 12-24 months, while light-duty applications may see 24-36 months. Regular cleaning and bearing inspection extend service life.
Q: What are signs that my wheels need replacement?
A: Listen for grinding or squealing noises during operation. Spin each wheel by hand—a good wheel rotates freely for several full rotations. Inspect for flat spots, cracks, or uneven wear patterns on the wheel surface. Loss of free rotation or excessive noise indicates bearing wear.
Q: Can I reuse the axles when replacing wheels?
A: Inspect axles for bending, cracks, or surface corrosion before reuse. If axles show wear or damage, replacement axles are included in the kit. Always verify axle straightness and cleanliness before installing new wheels.
Q: How should I store these wheels if not in immediate use?
A: Store wheels indoors in a dry location, protected from moisture and extreme temperature changes. Keep bearings lubricated and covered. Store assemblies upright or on a flat surface to prevent bearing damage from side pressure.
Q: Are there aftermarket equivalent wheels for the Jet PTW?
A: Verify any equivalent wheels match the exact bore diameter, wheel outer diameter, and load rating specifications. Using non-compatible wheels can cause binding or operational failure. Always consult technical specifications before substituting with aftermarket alternatives.
