Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the RA 313946-000 washer used for?
A: The RA 313946-000 is a load wheel or caster washer designed to distribute load and reduce friction between the wheel, axle, and frame on material handling equipment. It is part of the wheel assembly hardware kit for Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and similar OEM equipment.
Q: What material is this washer made from?
A: The RA 313946-000 is typically a steel or zinc-plated steel washer. Steel washers resist corrosion and wear under the repeated stress and lateral loads common in pallet jack and lift truck wheel assemblies.
Q: What are the inner and outer diameter specifications of the RA 313946-000?
A: Exact bore and outer diameter specifications depend on the axle size it pairs with. Cross-reference the RA 313946-000 against your OEM equipment manual or existing washer to confirm fit. Provide your equipment model for accurate sizing.
Q: Can this washer be reused if I replace the load wheel?
A: If the washer shows no cracks, permanent bending, or excessive wear, it can be reused. Inspect for flatness and smooth edges before reinstalling. Replace if deformed, as an improperly seated washer can cause uneven wheel loading and premature failure.
Q: Is the RA 313946-000 part of a wheel assembly kit?
A: Yes, the RA 313946-000 washer is typically included in load wheel or caster wheel replacement kits. It works in combination with the axle, lock nut, and wheel. Confirm that all components in your kit match your equipment specification before ordering.
