Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What material construction does the RA 632-052-003-A load wheel use?
A: The RA 632-052-003-A features a polyurethane tread bonded to a steel core hub. The polyurethane provides load-bearing capacity and floor grip while the steel hub delivers structural integrity and bearing support for electric lift truck applications.
Q: What bearing material and specification does this wheel include?
A: This wheel is equipped with steel bearings featuring rubber seals. The sealed bearing design protects against contamination and requires minimal maintenance. The specific bearing model and bore diameter should be verified against your equipment specifications.
Q: How does the RA 632-052-003-A compare to other RA 632-052 series wheels?
A: The 003-A designation indicates a specific bearing or tread configuration variant within the 632-052 series. Confirm bore diameter, outside diameter, and tread width match your existing wheels before ordering. Cross-reference with RA 632-052-003 and RA 632-052-003-XL specifications for compatibility.
Q: What is the expected service life of the polyurethane tread?
A: Polyurethane load wheel tread life depends on operating conditions, load weight, floor surface, and mileage. Standard industrial applications typically see 12 to 36 months of service before visible wear or hardening occurs. Heavy-use or outdoor conditions may reduce lifespan. Inspect wheels regularly for flat spots, cracking, or tread separation.
Q: Are sealed bearings on this wheel replaceable or do you replace the entire wheel?
A: Sealed bearing wheels typically require wheel replacement rather than bearing-only service. Bearing replacement on sealed wheels often costs as much as a new wheel and is labor-intensive. When wheel bearing failure occurs, replacement of the complete wheel assembly is the standard practice.
