Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is RA 570-429-06?
A: RA 570-429-06 is a Raymond OEM brush plate assembly component for electric lift truck motors. The brush plate houses and aligns the brush set to ensure consistent electrical contact with the commutator.
Q: What equipment uses RA 570-429-06?
A: This brush plate is specified for Raymond electric pallet jacks and lift trucks with DC motor assemblies. Confirm your equipment model and motor type match the OEM specification before ordering.
Q: What is the relationship between RA 570-429-06 and RA 570-429-02?
A: RA 570-429-02 is the brush set and RA 570-429-06 is the brush plate. The brush plate assembly houses and positions the brushes for proper commutator contact. Both components work together to maintain motor performance.
Q: What materials is RA 570-429-06 manufactured from?
A: Raymond OEM brush plates are fabricated from reinforced thermoplastic or phenolic resin composites with embedded copper or brass contacts. These materials resist electrical arcing and maintain dimensional stability during motor operation.
Q: When does RA 570-429-06 require replacement?
A: Replace the brush plate if contacts are pitted, cracked, or discolored from arcing. Worn brush plates cause inconsistent electrical contact, leading to motor performance loss and commutator damage. Replacement is typically performed concurrently with brush set service.
