BR 28700-086-XL

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the 28700-086-XL wheel designed for?
A: The 28700-086-XL is a factory-spec load wheel designed for Barrett electric lift trucks, specifically for the load position. It features a 97A durometer polyurethane tread bonded to a steel core for reliability in material handling operations.

Q: What does the 97A durometer rating mean?
A: The 97A durometer rating indicates a harder polyurethane compound with excellent wear resistance and load capacity. This rating is ideal for standard industrial floor conditions and provides extended wheel life under typical pallet jack usage.

Q: What is the core material of the 28700-086-XL?
A: The 28700-086-XL has a machined steel core with polyurethane press-fit tread. The steel core provides structural support, and the press-fit construction ensures secure tread bonding and reliable wheel integrity.

Q: Are there cross-reference or equivalent part numbers?
A: No cross-reference part numbers are available from manufacturer or approved industrial distributor sources. Use only the 28700-086-XL designation when ordering this specific wheel for Barrett RPX60B pallet jacks.

Q: Is the 28700-086-XL suitable for cold storage or wet environments?
A: The 28700-086-XL features standard 97A polyurethane construction. For cold storage or consistently wet floors, verify environmental performance specifications with the manufacturer. High-traction polyurethane compounds may provide better grip in these conditions.

Q: What is the expected lifespan of this wheel?
A: Wheel lifespan depends on load weight, floor conditions, and operational hours. The 97A durometer polyurethane provides good durability for typical warehouse applications. Inspect wheels regularly for wear and tread degradation to ensure safe equipment operation.
