Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the wheel diameter and width specifications for the AS A37008-7 gravity conveyor caster?
A: The AS A37008-7 is a 6 inch diameter caster wheel with inner leg assembly. Configuration code 7 denotes a specific bore diameter and wheel width combination. Exact dimensions must align with your gravity conveyor frame. Check your equipment specifications to verify bore size and wheel width match before ordering.
Q: What gravity conveyor brands and models does the AS A37008-7 caster fit?
A: This 6 inch caster with inner leg assembly is compatible with standard gravity conveyor and roller bed frames used across multiple manufacturers. Fitment requires matching bore diameter, wheel width, and axle configuration. Verify your equipment documentation to confirm the AS A37008-7 configuration is correct for your conveyor system.
Q: What material is the AS A37008-7 wheel made from, and how does it perform in operation?
A: The AS A37008-7 features a polyurethane wheel compound developed for gravity conveyor applications. Polyurethane provides reliable abrasion resistance, consistent load-bearing performance, and durability. The material performs well across typical warehouse temperature and humidity ranges and resists common oils and moisture exposure found in distribution centers.
Q: How long does the AS A37008-7 caster wheel last under typical gravity conveyor use?
A: Under normal gravity conveyor operation, the AS A37008-7 wheel typically performs for 12 to 36 months. Actual lifespan depends on daily throughput volume, product weight and type, conveyor speed, and maintenance quality. Heavy-use environments shorten replacement intervals. Regular bearing maintenance and wheel cleaning help extend service life.
Q: What maintenance is needed to keep the AS A37008-7 caster functioning properly?
A: Inspect weekly for accumulation of debris, dust, or product residue on the wheel. Clean the wheel surface regularly to maintain rolling efficiency and product flow. Monitor bearing condition for smooth operation and adequate lubrication. Follow manufacturer guidance for bearing maintenance intervals. Replace the wheel when surface wear, flat spots, cracks, or damage appear.
Q: What cross-reference part numbers or alternatives are available for the AS A37008-7?
A: The AS A37008-7 is a specific configuration variant within the AS A37008 series. Equivalent parts exist from other suppliers, but cross-references require matching bore diameter, wheel width, and inner leg assembly design. Consult your equipment OEM part number and compare dimensional specifications to locate compatible alternatives.
