Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a roll pin and what does it do?
A: A roll pin is a hollow fastener that springs outward when inserted into a hole, providing shaft retention and load-bearing capability in mechanical assemblies. Roll pins are commonly used in material handling equipment to keep components aligned and prevent shaft movement.
Q: What equipment types use roll pins like SKU 914519?
A: Roll pins are compatible with electric and manual pallet jacks, electric lift trucks, and forklifts from brands including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster. Verify your equipment model and shaft diameter before ordering.
Q: What material is this roll pin made from?
A: Standard roll pins for material handling equipment are typically made from medium-carbon steel with a spring hardened finish, providing strength and spring action to maintain secure shaft retention.
Q: How long do roll pins last and when should they be replaced?
A: Roll pin lifespan depends on equipment usage and operating conditions. Replace if visible cracking, corrosion, or loss of spring tension occurs. Worn roll pins will not maintain proper shaft alignment and should be replaced immediately to prevent component damage.
