Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of bearing is RA 570-813-13?
A: RA 570-813-13 is a ball bearing used in electric lift truck drive and motor assemblies. It is a precision component designed to support axial and radial loads in material handling equipment.
Q: Which electric lift truck models use RA 570-813-13?
A: This bearing fits multiple electric lift truck brands including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster models. Verify the bearing dimension and bore size match your equipment before ordering.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of RA 570-813-13?
A: Bearing lifespan depends on load conditions and maintenance. Under normal operating conditions with proper lubrication, expect 2000 to 4000 operating hours. High-load or contaminated environments reduce bearing life significantly.
Q: How does bearing contamination affect RA 570-813-13 performance?
A: Dust, moisture, and metal particles cause premature bearing wear and failure. Contamination increases friction, generates heat, and degrades the bearing raceway. Keep bearing seals intact and store in a dry environment before installation.
Q: Can RA 570-813-13 be repaired or must it be replaced?
A: Ball bearings cannot be repaired. Once damaged, cracked, or worn beyond tolerance, they must be replaced. Attempting to repair a failed bearing risks further equipment damage.
