Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the specifications of the RA 640-070 load wheel assembly?
A: The RA 640-070 is manufactured with 95A durometer polyurethane tread bonded to cast iron hub core. Precision ball bearing options include 6205-2RS sealed bearing or 6204-2RS sealed bearing.
Q: Which Raymond reach truck models use the RA 640-070?
A: The RA 640-070 is compatible with Raymond 020, 031, and 040 series reach truck models, as well as Raymond 7200, 7300, 7400, 7500, and 7600 series reach-fork trucks and RRS/RSS walkie reach trucks. Verify your specific model and serial range in your equipment documentation before ordering.
Q: What cross-reference part numbers does the RA 640-070 replace?
A: The RA 640-070 replaces or cross-references multiple Raymond part numbers including 631-051, 632-043-003, 632-050-003, 640-070-003, 061-053-310, 061-053-391, and several assembly variants. Check your equipment documentation to confirm the correct part number for your specific application.
Q: What bearing types are available for the RA 640-070?
A: The RA 640-070 comes with precision ball bearing options: 6205-2RS sealed bearing or 6204-2RS sealed bearing. Your axle diameter determines which bearing type is correct for your equipment.
Q: Is the RA 640-070 suitable for smooth floor operations?
A: Yes, the RA 640-070 has a smooth tread profile specifically designed as a load wheel for warehouse and industrial floors. The 95A polyurethane provides consistent grip and durability on typical concrete and sealed surfaces.
Q: How does the polyurethane tread perform compared to rubber?
A: The 95A polyurethane tread is engineered for superior load capacity and wear resistance compared to standard rubber wheels. The premium polyether formulation resists abrasion, maintains consistent hardness across temperature ranges, and provides reliable performance in industrial warehouse environments.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of the RA 640-070 wheel?
A: Wheel lifespan depends on usage intensity, load levels, floor conditions, and maintenance. Smooth-tread load wheels typically last 2-5 years under normal warehouse operation. Regular inspection and prompt replacement when tread wear becomes visible ensures optimal equipment performance and safety.
