Product Description
The Durarun 95A polyurethane load wheel assembly (YL 582032962) is engineered for Yale electric pallet jacks and material handling equipment. Durarun 95A polyurethane delivers superior durability, abrasion resistance, and extended service life compared to standard rubber wheels. This load wheel assembly maintains consistent performance across warehouse, dock, and indoor material handling applications. The medium-hardness polyurethane formulation balances load capacity with traction on most floor surfaces, making it ideal for high-volume pallet jack operations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is Durarun 95A polyurethane and why is it used in load wheels?
A: Durarun 95A polyurethane is a medium-hardness compound rated at 95A Shore durometer. It provides excellent durability, abrasion resistance, and load-bearing performance for warehouse and material handling applications. The 95A formulation balances strength with traction across indoor and outdoor surfaces.
Q: What equipment is the YL 582032962 load wheel assembly compatible with?
A: The YL 582032962 is designed for Yale electric pallet jacks and material handling equipment. Compatibility includes Yale walkie pallet jacks (MPW and MPB series) and similar equipment. Always verify your equipment model and load wheel specifications before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
Q: How long do Durarun 95A polyurethane load wheels typically last?
A: Polyurethane load wheels rated at 95A durometer typically last 12 to 24 months under normal warehouse conditions. Service life depends on floor type, load weight, daily usage hours, and maintenance practices. Rough concrete or outdoor use may result in faster wear.
Q: How does polyurethane compare to rubber for load wheel performance?
A: Polyurethane load wheels offer superior abrasion resistance, longer service life, and better load-bearing performance than rubber wheels. Polyurethane maintains hardness and shape longer, reducing replacement frequency. Rubber tends to degrade faster under heavy use and outdoor conditions.
Q: Can the YL 582032962 load wheel assembly perform in cold storage or wet environments?
A: Standard Durarun 95A polyurethane wheels function in wet and cold environments but may experience reduced traction in temperatures below 32°F. For specialized cold storage or consistently wet conditions, contact Yale about high-traction polyurethane formulations designed for those environments.
Q: What is the difference between load wheels and steer wheels on a pallet jack?
A: Load wheels (non-steering wheels) support the main weight of the load and are typically larger. Steer wheels (front wheels) are smaller and designed for maneuverability and directional control. The YL 582032962 is a load wheel assembly for the rear or primary weight-bearing position.
