Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the purpose of a smooth tread on a polyurethane load wheel?
A: Smooth tread wheels provide consistent contact over flat warehouse floors and minimize drag compared to textured or grooved treads. The RA 632-050 smooth tread reduces rolling resistance and heat buildup during extended operation on paved or polished concrete floors.
Q: What do the dimensions 5.00 inch diameter and 2.88 inch width mean for compatibility?
A: The 5.00 inch outer diameter and 2.88 inch tread width define the wheel size and must match your Raymond electric lift truck specification. The 2.047 inch inside diameter is the hub bore that fits onto the truck axle. All three dimensions must align with your equipment.
Q: What does 95 Shore A hardness mean for load wheel performance?
A: Shore A measures polyurethane durometer hardness. At 95 Shore A, this wheel offers a balance between load capacity and floor grip. It is durable enough for heavy loads on electric lift trucks while remaining soft enough to absorb minor floor vibrations and provide adequate traction.
Q: Is the RA 632-050 wheel suitable for electric lift trucks specifically, or multiple equipment types?
A: The RA 632-050 is designed as a genuine replacement part for Raymond electric lift trucks. While the dimensions may be compatible with other equipment, this wheel is engineered and tested for electric lift truck performance and should be verified against your specific equipment specifications.
Q: How often should the RA 632-050 be replaced due to wear?
A: Polyurethane load wheels typically require replacement every 12 to 36 months depending on floor conditions, load cycles, and maintenance. Monitor the tread for visible wear or flattening. If the wheel no longer maintains full contact with the floor or shows tread degradation, replacement is necessary.
Q: Does the RA 632-050 come with pre-installed bearings?
A: The RA 632-050 specifications indicate a polyurethane wheel with smooth tread. Bearing configuration is not detailed in available specifications. Contact us to confirm whether this part number includes pre-installed bearings or if bearings must be sourced separately for your truck configuration.
