Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the RA 1143439-001 caster wheel assembly?
A: RA 1143439-001 is a caster wheel assembly featuring integrated springs for load suspension. This assembly fits Raymond, Crown, and Toyota electric lift trucks and electric pallet jacks. The spring design absorbs shock and reduces vibration during operation.
Q: What specifications should I verify before installation?
A: Verify your equipment documentation for axle spacing and mounting bracket configuration with your equipment manufacturer. Incorrect sizing can lead to binding and premature wear. Consult your equipment manual or contact the manufacturer for dimension verification.
Q: What materials compose this wheel assembly?
A: This assembly uses a polyurethane compound wheel with steel bearings and spring mechanism. Polyurethane provides excellent durability on concrete floors and resists oils and lubricants commonly found in warehouse environments.
Q: What are the temperature operating limitations?
A: Standard polyurethane wheels and spring mechanisms function normally in standard warehouse temperatures. Spring action and wheel flexibility degrade at sub-freezing temperatures below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. For cold storage applications, consult the manufacturer about environment-rated alternatives.
Q: How long does this wheel assembly last?
A: Service life depends on load weight, floor conditions, and maintenance practices. Inspect wheels regularly for wear or damage. Polyurethane wheels typically show service life suited to warehouse duty when properly maintained and used within rated load capacity.
