Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does the RA 632-043-XL-A load wheel fit?
A: The RA 632-043-XL-A is a direct replacement for Raymond 7400 Series Reach Pallet Trucks with open toe configuration. It is cross-compatible with wheels referenced as RA632-043-A, RA632-043, 632043A, 632-043, and 97-A XL W/Bearings.
Q: What are the dimensions and material specifications for this load wheel?
A: The RA 632-043-XL-A measures 5 inches in diameter and 2.88 inches in width. It features a Millennium premium soft 95A polyurethane tread compound bonded to a machined steel core hub. Pre-installed ball bearings are included in the assembly.
Q: How does the 95A polyurethane compound perform compared to harder wheel materials?
A: The 95A Shore A hardness provides a balance of load capacity and traction. Softer polyurethane (lower Shore A values) offers better grip on smooth floors but wears faster under heavy use. This 95A compound is standard for reach truck load wheels and provides consistent performance across typical warehouse operations.
Q: Does this wheel assembly come with bearings installed?
A: Yes, the RA 632-043-XL-A includes pre-installed ball bearings. The designation XL-A in the part number indicates this bearing-inclusive configuration. These are sealed roller bearings suitable for warehouse environments.
Q: What is the lifespan of this polyurethane load wheel in normal warehouse conditions?
A: Polyurethane load wheels typically last 12 to 36 months depending on floor conditions, load frequency, and maintenance. Rough or abrasive floors accelerate wear. Monitor tread depth and replace when visible tread reduction occurs or if the wheel loses contact with the floor.
Q: Can this wheel be used as a replacement for the standard RA632-043?
A: Yes. The RA 632-043-XL-A is a direct replacement for RA632-043 and equivalent models. The XL designation indicates it is the extended bearing version. Verify that your Raymond 7400 Series truck uses the open toe hub configuration before ordering.
