ROLLER RACE
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a roller race and what does E-5723 do in an electric lift truck?
A: A roller race is a bearing component that supports and guides rollers within the mast or wheel assembly. E-5723 provides a smooth track surface for load wheels and directional rollers, enabling low-friction vertical lift and lateral movement in electric pallet jacks and sit-down riders.
Q: Which equipment models use E-5723 roller race?
A: E-5723 is used in electric pallet jacks and walk-behind lifts from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and similar manufacturers. Verify your model year and serial range before ordering, as design revisions may require different race configurations.
Q: What symptoms indicate E-5723 roller race failure?
A: Worn or damaged roller races cause binding during lift operation, increased noise, uneven mast movement, or lateral wobble in the load wheel. You may notice rough spots on the race surface or visible spalling when the wheel assembly is removed.
Q: Is E-5723 a consumable wear item?
A: Yes. Roller races experience constant contact and friction during operation. In high-use environments, expect replacement every 2 to 4 years. Cold storage and wet floors accelerate wear. Regular wheel maintenance and lubrication extend service life.
Q: Does E-5723 come as part of a wheel assembly kit or as a standalone part?
A: E-5723 is available as a standalone replacement race. It is also included in complete wheel and roller race kits. If replacing only the race, ensure the roller itself is still serviceable; pairing a new race with a worn roller will cause rapid failure.
