RA 632-527-004

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What Raymond equipment models does the RA 632-527-004 load wheel fit?
A: The RA 632-527-004 is designed for Raymond electric pallet jacks and lift trucks, including models 8300, 8400, 8500, and 8900. Verify your equipment model and serial number range before ordering to confirm fitment, as Raymond changed wheel specifications across production runs.

Q: What are the dimensions and load capacity?
A: For specifications, check your original wheel markings or contact Raymond directly. Specifications vary by equipment model and production year, so verification is essential for proper fit and safety performance.

Q: What material is this wheel made from?
A: Raymond load wheels are typically constructed from polyurethane or elastomer compounds bonded to a metal or composite core. The exact compound type depends on the intended use environment and original specifications. Contact the manufacturer to verify material type for your specific equipment model.

Q: How long does a load wheel typically last?
A: Lifespan depends on usage intensity, floor conditions, and load weight. Replace when the wheel shows visible wear, cracks, flat spots, or uneven tread that affects tracking or increases noise. High-use environments may require replacement every 1 to 3 years.

Q: Can this wheel be used in cold storage?
A: Standard polyurethane wheels can become brittle and lose traction in cold storage environments. If your Raymond equipment operates in freezer or refrigerated areas, verify the wheel compound specification and consider specialized low-temperature wheel alternatives.

Q: Is an assembly version available?
A: Yes, the RA 632-527-004-A is the complete load wheel assembly that includes the wheel, bearing, and mounting hardware. Order the -A version if you need the assembled component; order the RA 632-527-004 if you need the wheel only.
