Wheel
Replacement Wheel (Item #RTRT00633)
Key Benefits
The replacement wheel (RTRT00633) is a high-quality component designed to restore the mobility and efficiency of your floor cleaning equipment. Made with durable materials and engineered for stability, this wheel allows machines to glide smoothly across a variety of surfaces. Whether used on tile, concrete, vinyl, or other common flooring types, it provides dependable support and maneuverability. For operators, this means less strain when pushing or steering equipment, more consistent cleaning performance, and a longer overall lifespan for the machine itself. Replacing worn or damaged wheels with this part is a simple yet effective way to maintain peak operational efficiency and keep downtime to a minimum.
Why It Matters
Wheels are among the most heavily used components of any cleaning machine. Over time, exposure to heavy loads, uneven surfaces, and constant movement can cause them to wear down, crack, or develop flat spots. When wheels are compromised, machines become harder to push, steering becomes more difficult, and cleaning consistency suffers. Worn wheels can also place additional stress on the frame and other mechanical parts, accelerating wear on the equipment. By installing a fresh replacement wheel, operators restore smooth mobility, reduce friction and uneven weight distribution, and help extend the overall service life of their scrubber or cleaning system. This makes it a vital part for keeping cleaning operations running at their best.

Installation Tips
- Turn off and disconnect the cleaning machine before attempting replacement.
- Carefully remove the damaged or worn wheel from the axle or mounting point.
- Position the new wheel securely in place and ensure it is properly aligned.
- Tighten all necessary fasteners to guarantee stability during use.
- Spin the wheel by hand to check for smooth rotation before returning the machine to operation.
Compatibility & Fit
This wheel is designed specifically for select IPC Eagle floor scrubbers and cleaning equipment. While it provides a reliable and precise fit for approved models, it may not be suitable for all machines. Always confirm compatibility with your machine’s part manual or check the item number against your model specifications before ordering. Using the correct wheel ensures optimal performance, safety, and extended equipment life.
Pro Tips
- For balanced performance, replace wheels in pairs rather than one at a time.
- Inspect wheels weekly for cracks, uneven wear, or flat spots caused by frequent heavy use.
- Use the machine on clean floors whenever possible to prevent debris buildup around wheels.
- If pushing or steering feels uneven, check wheel alignment and condition before resuming use.
Maintenance Best Practices
- Keep wheels free of dirt, dust, and debris to maintain smooth rolling and reduce wear.
- Rinse or wipe wheels periodically to remove buildup that can affect traction.
- Lubricate axles as needed to prevent squeaking or resistance during movement.
- Store equipment in a clean, dry area to reduce exposure to harsh elements that may degrade wheel materials.
- Replace wheels at the first sign of cracking or deformation to avoid strain on the machine.
FAQ
Q: Is this wheel universal for all scrubbers?
A: No, it is designed specifically for select IPC Eagle machines. Always confirm compatibility with your model before purchase.
Q: How often should wheels be replaced?
A: On average, wheels should be replaced every 12–18 months depending on frequency of use, floor conditions, and weight loads.
Q: Can I replace the wheel myself, or should a technician do it?
A: In most cases, the wheel can be replaced by the operator with basic tools, though a technician may be preferred for routine service checks.
Q: What signs indicate that a wheel needs replacement?
A: Difficulty maneuvering, visible cracks, uneven rolling, or flat spots are all signs that it’s time to replace the wheel.
Q: Does the wheel require lubrication?
A: The wheel itself does not require lubrication, but the axle or mounting hardware may benefit from periodic oiling for smoother rotation.
