Thombert Poly Load Wheel 5 x 3 x 2.834 – 1347-AO

Thombert makes this load wheel in its Dyalon A polyurethane at a 5 inch outside diameter, 3 inches wide, with a 2.834 inch bore that presses onto the axle. The relatively large 2.834 inch bore takes a heavier axle, and the Dyalon A polyurethane tread carries the load without the chunking and flat-spotting that wear down a rubber wheel under repeated point loading.

Thombert documents the wheel as fitting Allis Chalmers and MCFA lift trucks, covering the load-wheel position it is cataloged for across those fleets. It is supplied as a wheel only, without bearings pressed into the hub, and is sized around the 6306 bearing, which the buyer installs new or transfers from the worn wheel being replaced.

The bore is the dimension that decides whether the wheel seats, since a load wheel presses onto its axle rather than bolting on. Match the 2.834 inch bore to the axle diameter on the truck, because a press-fit wheel will not seat on a shaft turned for a different bore. Forklifts Etc. sells it individually as a one-for-one replacement for a worn load wheel.
