Product Description
The YL-504575263 wheel assembly is an 8-inch caster wheel unit designed for Yale NR/NDR series reach trucks. This assembly serves as a swivel caster wheel, typically mounted at the rear of the undercarriage, to support and stabilize the truck during operation. It directly replaces Yale part number 504575263, offering the same specifications as the original caster wheel. The wheel has a standard 8.00-inch outer diameter with a tread made of maroon polyurethane for floor-friendly traction. It features a high-strength steel core and comes with bearings pre-installed in the hub for easy installation. It’s built to OEM quality, meaning it will fit into the Yale caster fork/yoke without modification and restore original performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What material is the Yale caster wheel made from?
A: The wheel features a steel or cast iron core with a maroon polyurethane tread.
Q: Does this wheel assembly include the bearings?
A: Yes. It comes with two sealed ball bearings pressed into the hub.
Q: Should I replace both caster wheels on my forklift at the same time?
A: Yes, replacing in pairs is recommended. A single new wheel may differ in diameter from a worn one, causing uneven handling or tilt. Installing both ensures balance, equal traction, and stability.
Q: How can I verify that 504575263 is the correct wheel for my Yale model?
A: Check your parts manual or cross-reference with your forklift’s model and serial number. It fits Yale NR/NDR 30–45 series trucks. Measure your existing wheel—8" diameter, ~2" width, 20 mm axle bore. Matching these specifications and confirming via Yale documentation ensures a correct fit.
Q: Is this an original Yale part or an aftermarket replacement?
A: This is an aftermarket replacement built to OEM specifications. It’s fully interchangeable with the original Yale caster wheel. Aftermarket options provide a cost-effective solution without sacrificing performance or lifespan, and reputable suppliers ensure equal or better quality for demanding forklift applications.
Q: When should I replace the caster wheels on my reach truck?
A: Replace when they've worn down by 1/4 inch or more. You should also replace them if you notice increased difficulty in steering, grinding noises, or scuff marks on the floor.
Q: Can the bearings in this wheel be replaced separately?
A: Yes, the bearings are press-fit and serviceable. If the wheel is still in good shape but the bearings wear, you can press them out and replace them with new ones of the same size (e.g., 6205). However, if the tread is damaged, replacing the full wheel is more efficient.
Q: Does this wheel assembly come with the axle bolt or any mounting hardware?
A: No. It includes only the wheel with pre-installed bearings.
