Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the CR 82694-3 caster assembly used for?
A: The CR 82694-3 is a zinc-plated caster assembly for Crown equipment and similar electric pallet jacks. It replaces worn or damaged caster units on material handling trucks.
Q: Why is zinc plating applied to the CR 82694-3?
A: Zinc plating protects the steel caster assembly from rust and corrosion. This is critical for equipment used in wet environments, cold storage, or outdoor dock areas where moisture exposure is frequent.
Q: Is CR 82694-3 different from CR 82694-2 or CR 82694-4?
A: All three SKUs (CR 82694-2, CR 82694-3, CR 82694-4) are zinc-plated caster components for Crown PR Rider equipment. Verify your specific equipment model and the exact part you need. Cross-reference your existing assembly or equipment manual to confirm which variant applies.
Q: How long does a zinc-plated caster assembly typically last?
A: Caster assembly lifespan depends on load capacity, usage frequency, floor conditions, and maintenance. High-traffic warehouse use may require replacement every 1-2 years, while lighter-duty applications may extend lifespan to 3+ years. Inspect for wear, cracks, or difficulty rolling as replacement indicators.
Q: Can the CR 82694-3 be used on equipment other than Crown?
A: The CR 82694-3 is specified for Crown equipment. Compatibility with other manufacturers depends on mounting dimensions, load rating, and axle specifications. Do not assume cross-compatibility without verifying equipment specifications.
