Raymond 750-R45TT:
Load wheels

We are having issues with our units destroying the right side load wheels. Temps are reaching 140 degrees separating the ploy from the steel. While left side is a cool 90ish temp. Anyone can help we are using the hardest poly tire tvh sells for long runs and hight temps but no go. We have changed grease to a moly base. And now trying white cushothane xl from raymond. Is there a adjustment causing only the weight to be on the right side?

Other than physical damage, it is probably the compound you are using. Color varies from manufacturer to manufacturer so you can use the color to know which load wheel you are using.

I suspect the "white cushothane xl" is the Superior XL compound with a 97A durometer (hardness). If you are using a cushothane ez (red), this the XL will outperform the EZ in high speed, long runs. They also make a XL AC which is even better for high speed long runs.

Alternatively, Stellana makes a very good wheel called the Lmax. My customer prefer this for most applications.

If you know the part number (SKU) we can confirm this information. Reach us at [email address removed] and we will provide you some options.

Thanks,
Bill

Best check the alignment of your baselegs since it appears one may be bent. If you don't have impact monitoring, operators rarely "self report" impact incidents. Some aftermarket load wheel manufacturers used steel as the core of their products. Better OEMs are using cast iron at a higher cost but are more resistant to bond separation caused by heat build-up.

Check outriggers, measure inside at mast then at wheels I'm guessing they are bent in causing
Tires to run at slight angle causing heat

Try using solid teflon wheels. Don't think they are available in the market. You have to make them. Hope this help.
