Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the specifications for the CR 82740 load wheel?
A: The CR 82740 is a polyurethane load wheel. It features a 97A Shore A durometer polyurethane tread bonded to a steel hub and includes BS 6205 bearings for rated durability in high-cycle industrial environments.
Q: What Crown equipment models are compatible with the CR 82740?
A: The CR 82740 is designed for Crown electric pallet jacks and reach trucks including the PR 3000 Series, RS Reach Trucks, GPW 4-14, and WP 2300 Series. Verify your equipment model number and serial range against Crown parts diagrams before ordering, as wheel fitment is model-specific.
Q: What does the 97A durometer rating indicate?
A: The 97A Shore A durometer indicates a hard polyurethane compound designed for load-bearing applications. This hardness provides excellent resistance to wear and deformation under continuous duty cycles, making it ideal for warehouse and industrial lifting environments where wheels endure sustained pressure and friction.
Q: When should the CR 82740 wheel be replaced?
A: Replace the CR 82740 when you observe flat spots, chunking, cracking, or uneven wear on the tread surface. Diminished grip, steering difficulty, or audible grinding during operation also indicate wheel failure. High-cycle operations typically see load wheel lifespan depending on floor surface type and duty cycle intensity.
Q: How does the CR 82740 compare to other Crown load wheels?
A: The CR 82740 differs from alternatives primarily in durometer rating (97A). Crown offers wheels in various sizes and hardness grades for different lift truck models. Cross-reference your equipment documentation to confirm the correct size and specifications for your application.
