Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 83970-A load wheel assembly?
A: The 83970-A is a direct replacement polyurethane load wheel assembly with 95A Shore hardness rating. Polyurethane tread is bonded to a cast iron core, designed to handle sustained loads on manual pallet jack equipment.
Q: Is the 83970-A compatible with Crown GPW Series pallet jacks?
A: Yes. The 83970-A is engineered specifically for Crown GPW Series manual pallet jacks. Verify your equipment model designation is GPW to confirm compatibility before ordering.
Q: What are the alternate part number designations?
A: The 83970-A can also be referenced as Crown 83970-A. Both designations refer to the same direct replacement load wheel assembly.
Q: How does 95A polyurethane hardness affect wheel performance?
A: A 95A Shore hardness polyurethane provides firm tread contact with high load capacity. This durometer rating balances rigidity for load distribution with enough resilience to absorb minor floor irregularities. Performance is optimized for warehouse and distribution applications.
Q: What maintenance extends wheel lifespan?
A: Inspect wheels regularly for uneven wear, debris, or damage. Clean with mild soap and water as needed. Avoid pressure washing. Check for proper seating on axles. Replace wheels when tread is worn smooth, sidewalls are damaged, or flat spots develop.
