Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which pallet jack models use the WW 97-13 hub cap?
A: The WW 97-13 hub cap fits standard wheel assemblies on electric and manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and Yale. This is a universal load wheel hub cap designed for equipment with matching spindle and wheel bore dimensions. Confirm your exact wheel assembly model before ordering.
Q: What is the purpose of the WW 97-13 hub cap?
A: The hub cap seals and protects the wheel spindle bearing area from dirt, moisture, and debris. It prevents lubricant leakage from the bearing cavity and keeps contaminants out, which extends bearing life and reduces maintenance needs.
Q: What material is the WW 97-13 hub cap made from?
A: The WW 97-13 is manufactured from durable plastic or metal (depending on equipment specification) with a tight-fit snap or press design. The material is resistant to oils, greases, and standard material handling environments.
Q: How do I know if the WW 97-13 hub cap needs replacement?
A: Replace the hub cap if it is cracked, missing, loose, or visibly damaged. If you notice bearing noise, grease leakage, or spindle movement at the wheel, inspect the cap for seal integrity. A damaged cap compromises bearing protection and can lead to premature wheel failure.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of the WW 97-13 hub cap?
A: The WW 97-13 typically lasts 2 to 4 years under normal operating conditions. Lifespan depends on equipment usage, environmental exposure (wet storage, cold rooms), and seal maintenance. Replace it proactively as part of routine wheel bearing service.
