RA 632-527-008-A

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What equipment does the RA 632-527-008-A load wheel assembly fit?
A: The RA 632-527-008-A is a load wheel assembly designed for Raymond electric pallet jacks and electric lift trucks. Verify your equipment model against Raymond specifications to confirm compatibility before ordering.

Q: What is the difference between a load wheel and a load wheel assembly?
A: A load wheel assembly includes the wheel, bearing, and mounting hardware as a complete unit. A load wheel is the wheel component alone. The RA 632-527-008-A is a full assembly that is ready to mount on compatible Raymond equipment.

Q: How do I identify when the RA 632-527-008-A needs replacement?
A: Replace the load wheel assembly when you observe flat spots, cracks, or uneven wear on the wheel surface; excessive noise or grinding from the bearing; or reduced steering responsiveness. These symptoms indicate the wheel or bearing has failed and poses a safety risk.

Q: What is the typical lifespan of the RA 632-527-008-A load wheel assembly?
A: Lifespan depends on equipment usage intensity, load weight, and floor conditions. In typical warehouse operations, a load wheel assembly lasts 12 to 24 months before replacement becomes necessary. Heavy-duty or continuous use may require earlier replacement.

Q: Can the RA 632-527-008-A be used on wet or cold storage floors?
A: The RA 632-527-008-A standard polyurethane wheel compound is suitable for general warehouse use. If you operate equipment in cold storage or frequently wet environments, verify the wheel compound rating with Raymond specifications, as some conditions require specialized high-traction compounds.

Q: Does the RA 632-527-008-A assembly include the wheel, bearing, and hardware?
A: Yes. The RA 632-527-008-A is a complete load wheel assembly that includes the wheel, bearing, and mounting hardware. It is designed as a bolt-on replacement unit for Raymond electric lift trucks.
