Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the E-6679 load wheel axle?
A: The E-6679 is a load wheel axle assembly that supports the weight of the pallet load and allows the truck to move forward and backward. It is a critical structural component that transfers load from the mast to the ground through the wheels.
Q: Which electric lift trucks use the E-6679 axle?
A: The E-6679 is compatible with Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and other major electric lift truck brands with standard load-wheel spacing. Verify your truck model, year, and load capacity to ensure the axle diameter and weight rating match your equipment.
Q: What are the load capacity and dimensional specifications for the E-6679?
A: Load ratings and axle diameter vary based on truck model. Confirm the E-6679 specifications match your truck nameplate before ordering. Typical specs include axle diameter, bearing type, and rated load capacity in pounds or kilograms.
Q: What material and bearing type is the E-6679 made from?
A: The E-6679 uses a hardened steel axle shaft with sealed or grease-packed bearings depending on the model. Steel construction resists bending under load, and sealed bearings reduce contamination and extend service life.
Q: How long should the E-6679 axle last?
A: The E-6679 typically lasts 5 to 7 years under normal warehouse use. Lifespan depends on load consistency, floor surfaces, and bearing maintenance. Excessive play, wobbling wheels, or grinding noises indicate bearing wear and replacement is needed.
Q: What are signs that the E-6679 axle assembly needs replacement?
A: Replace the E-6679 if wheels wobble side-to-side, bearing races make grinding or squealing sounds, the truck pulls to one side, or the axle shaft is visibly bent. Worn or damaged bearings cannot be reliably regreased and require assembly replacement.
