Caster Assy, Zinc Plated Raymond, RA671-025
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the zinc plating on the RA 671-025 provide?
A: The zinc plating on the RA 671-025 caster assembly provides corrosion resistance. This makes it suitable for environments with higher humidity, exposure to water spray, or chemical residues that would damage unplated steel components.
Q: What is the RA 671-025 caster assembly used for?
A: The RA 671-025 is a complete zinc-plated caster assembly for Raymond electric lift trucks. It includes the wheel, axle, and mounting bracket pre-assembled. The zinc plating adds durability in corrosive or wet environments.
Q: How does the RA 671-025 compare to the RA 671-024-100?
A: The RA 671-025 has zinc plating for corrosion protection, while the RA 671-024-100 does not specify a protective coating. Choose the RA 671-025 for washdown areas, outdoor use, or wet environments; choose the RA 671-024-100 for standard dry warehouse conditions.
Q: Should I replace all casters with the RA 671-025 zinc-plated version?
A: If your equipment operates in wet, corrosive, or washdown environments, upgrade to zinc-plated assemblies like the RA 671-025 on all casters to prevent premature rust and bearing failure. For standard dry warehouses, standard assemblies are sufficient.
