Raymond Poly Press On Tire Electric Lift Truck OEM

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the material and durometer rating of the 632-089?
A: The 632-089 is a poly press-on tire constructed with high-performance cast polyurethane compound, rated at 87A Shore durometer hardness. This softer compound provides good traction for drive wheel applications.

Q: What is the mounting method for the 632-089?
A: The 632-089 features press-fit mounting with a steel backing core. The press-on design allows direct mounting onto compatible drive wheel hubs without fasteners.

Q: Which Raymond electric lift trucks use the 632-089 drive wheel?
A: The 632-089 is designed for drive wheel use on select Raymond material handling equipment. Verify your specific model and series for compatibility, as this tire fits particular wheel core sizes and hub configurations.

Q: What is the performance difference between 87A and higher durometer polyurethane tires?
A: The 87A Shore durometer rating on the 632-089 indicates a softer, more flexible compound than higher-rated tires. This provides better grip and traction for drive wheels, while higher durometer tires offer more wear resistance on caster or idler applications.

Q: How does the press-on tire design of the 632-089 compare to vulcanized tires?
A: Press-on tires like the 632-089 use mechanical interference fit rather than adhesive bonding. The steel backing core provides structural support and allows the high-performance polyurethane compound to perform without curing-related stress.

Q: What is the typical lifespan of the 632-089 polyurethane tire under standard use?
A: Lifespan depends on equipment usage, load, floor type, and maintenance. The 87A durometer polyurethane on the 632-089 is designed for drive wheel traction; monitor wear and replace when tread depth decreases or traction performance degrades.
