Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What Crown electric pallet jack models is the 100462 compatible with?
A: The 100462 is a complete load wheel assembly compatible with Crown PE 3000, PE 4000, and PE 4500 series electric pallet jacks. For PE 3000 units, it works with 9-inch and 10-inch fork riser assemblies in single-wheel configurations. Verify your specific model before ordering to ensure fitment.
Q: What are the physical dimensions and bearing specifications?
A: The 100462 has an outer diameter and a tread width. The assembly includes dual 6205-2RS sealed ball bearings with a bore. The polyurethane tread is bonded to a cast iron core and available in multiple Shore hardness grades ranging from 95A to 99A.
Q: What does the 6205-2RS bearing designation mean?
A: 6205-2RS refers to a sealed deep-groove ball bearing where 6205 is the size and 2RS indicates it has rubber seals on both sides. The two seals reduce contamination ingress and retain grease, extending bearing life in warehouse environments. The bore fits the axle shafts on Crown PE series equipment.
Q: Can I select different Shore hardness grades for this wheel?
A: Yes, the 100462 is available in Shore hardness grades from 95A to 99A. Lower durometer (95A) provides better grip and shock absorption on smooth, wet, or cold floors. Higher durometer (99A) offers greater wear resistance on abrasive or rough floors. Choose based on your primary floor surfaces and load profiles.
Q: Does this assembly come pre-assembled and ready to use?
A: Yes, the 100462 is a complete assembly that includes the polyurethane tread, cast iron core, dual sealed bearings, and spacers. It is ready to use as a unit and comes fully assembled with all components.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of the polyurethane tread?
A: Polyurethane wheel lifespan depends on floor conditions, load cycles, and durometer grade selected. Higher durometer grades (98A-99A) provide extended wear on abrasive floors, while lower grades (95A-96A) excel on smooth surfaces. Regular inspection for wear and proper tire pressure maintenance will maximize operational life.
Q: How should I store the 100462 when not in use?
A: Store the wheel assembly in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and UV exposure to prevent polyurethane degradation. Avoid storing in areas with extreme temperature fluctuations, high humidity, or near chemical solvents. Keep wheels off the ground on a rack when possible to prevent flat-spotting.
