Amerex 27226 questions
What does the Amerex 27226 wheel assembly fit?
Parts Book 27277 Rev D lists it for 125/250 lb dry chemical stored pressure wheeled High Performance and Z-Series models 573, 575, 690, 756, 758 and 759.
What size is the Amerex 27226 wheel?
36 in. by 6 in.
Can the 27226 wheel be used on the R-suffix models 756R, 758R and 759R?
No. The Parts Book lists a separate 36 in. by 6 in. vulcanized rubber wheel, part 27071, for those units.
Why do these extinguishers use 36 inch wheels?
Amerex states the large 36 inch wheels assure minimum effort for one person to quickly transport the unit to a fire scene.
What should be checked on the wheels?
Inspection and maintenance both call for confirming the wheels rotate freely, lubricating as required.
Are the wheels covered by the extended warranty?
No. Amerex's Owner's Manual 27085 states that the twelve year extended warranty on these models excludes abuse, hydrotest, carriage, wheels and hose assembly.
Why do the Parts Book and the owner's manual give different wheel part numbers?
Parts Book 27277 Rev D lists 27226 as the standard wheel for these models, while Owner's Manual 27085 dated 6/2025 lists 27072 for the same position on models 756, 757, 758 and 759. The two documents agree only on 27071 for the rubber tread version, so confirm the part number with Amerex before ordering.
Where is item 27226 in the Amerex Parts Book?
Item 8 on printed page 20 (PDF page 22) of Parts Book 27277 Rev D.
Is the Amerex 27226 a genuine Amerex part?
Yes. Amerex states that replacement parts must be Amerex parts to protect the UL listing and keep the warranty in effect, and that substitute parts void both.
