Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the RL-32-HD steer wheel assembly designed for?
A: The RL-32-HD is a heavy-duty steer wheel assembly for Rol-Lift Series T and Series E manual pallet jacks. It features an ultra-polyurethane tread with cast aluminum hub and flanged ball bearings for high-cycle warehouse use.
Q: What are the wheel diameter and material specifications?
A: The RL-32-HD has a wheel with ultra-polyurethane tread. The hub is machined cast aluminum with high-strength aluminum core material. This construction provides durability and reduced weight compared to solid steel hubs.
Q: What bearing type is used in this wheel assembly?
A: The RL-32-HD uses flanged ball bearings for load support and lateral containment. Flanged bearings prevent side wobble and wheel drift. The bearing design is rated for repeated high-load pallet handling in warehouse environments.
Q: Which Rol-Lift pallet jack models is this wheel compatible with?
A: The RL-32-HD is a direct replacement for Rol-Lift Series T and Series E manual pallet jacks. Alternate part number designations include RL-32-HD and RL32HD. Confirm your jack model and series before ordering to ensure proper fit.
Q: What is the hub finish specification?
A: The RL-32-HD features a machined cast aluminum hub with a finished surface. Machining ensures proper concentricity and smooth wheel rotation. The cast aluminum construction balances durability with weight reduction compared to solid steel alternatives.
Q: How should this wheel be stored and maintained?
A: Store the RL-32-HD in a dry location away from extreme heat or moisture. Periodically inspect the wheel for flat spots, uneven wear, or damage to the tread. Check that flanged bearings rotate freely without resistance or grinding noise. Replace the wheel if tread becomes uneven or wear reaches the core material.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of this wheel assembly?
A: The lifespan depends on warehouse conditions, load capacity, and usage frequency. Ultra-polyurethane tread provides superior wear resistance for high-cycle operations. Most wheels remain in service for 2-5 years before tread wear requires replacement. Inspect regularly to monitor condition and plan replacement accordingly.
