Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the dimensions and bore size of the RA 640-070-001-A load wheel?
A: The RA 640-070-001-A features a polyurethane tread is bonded to a steel hub and rated at 95A durometer hardness. Verify matches your equipment's axle shaft specification.
Q: Which Raymond reach-fork and orderpicker models does the RA 640-070-001-A fit?
A: This load wheel is designed for Raymond Reach-Fork 7400, 7500, 7600, and 7700 Series trucks, as well as 5400, 5500, and 5600 Series Orderpickers. Confirm your equipment model and serial range to ensure compatibility.
Q: What is the tread material and construction of the RA 640-070-001-A?
A: The RA 640-070-001-A uses Durarun polyurethane construction with a 95A shore hardness rating and smooth tread profile. This material provides superior vibration reduction performance and wear resistance for material handling applications.
Q: What are the cross-reference and equivalent part numbers for the RA 640-070-001-A?
A: The RA 640-070-001-A is equivalent to RA 640-070-001 and replaces 640-070-001-A. It may also supersede 640-070-001. Verify part number accuracy on your original equipment documentation when ordering replacements.
Q: How does the smooth tread profile affect performance on different floor surfaces?
A: The smooth tread profile reduces vibration and provides consistent rolling resistance across standard warehouse floors, concrete, and asphalt surfaces. For wet or cold storage environments, consider alternative tread compounds with higher traction ratings.
Q: What maintenance is recommended for the RA 640-070-001-A load wheel?
A: Monitor tread wear during routine equipment inspections. The 95A durometer polyurethane is durable for extended operation but will gradually wear under continuous use. Replace when tread shows visible flatting or smooth wear patterns that reduce traction.
Q: How should the RA 640-070-001-A load wheel be stored?
A: Store the wheel in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep away from oils, solvents, and chemicals that can degrade polyurethane materials. Store upright or on a flat surface to prevent warping.
