Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment models is part number 5800231-64 compatible with?
A: The spring-loaded caster assembly 5800231-64 is designed for MPW050EC802, MPB040EB827, MPB045EB827, and MPW045EB802 electric lift trucks. Verify your equipment model before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Q: What are the key dimensions of this caster assembly?
A: The mounting plate features a three-hole threaded configuration for secure attachment.
Q: What is an offset swivel caster design?
A: An offset swivel design allows the wheel to pivot independently, enabling smooth directional changes and improved maneuverability. This design is preferred for lift truck applications where operator control and precision steering are essential.
Q: What is the typical service life of a polyurethane caster wheel?
A: Polyurethane wheels typically provide 1 to 3 years of service depending on floor type, load capacity, and usage frequency. Rough concrete surfaces and heavy loads accelerate wear. Inspect wheels monthly for flat spots, cracks, or uneven wear.
Q: How should I maintain this caster assembly?
A: Periodically inspect the wheel for wear, damage, and proper rotation. Clean debris from around the wheel assembly. Monitor swivel movement to ensure smooth operation. Replace the assembly when tread wears significantly or steering becomes difficult.
Q: What is the material composition of the mounting plate?
A: The mounting plate is constructed from steel, which provides excellent strength and wear resistance for material handling equipment. Steel does not flex under normal operating loads on electric lift trucks rated for the specified models.
