Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the PL 20215 axle assembly and where is it used?
A: The PL 20215 is an OEM replacement axle assembly for manual pallet jacks including Lift-Rite L50M, Titan, and Big Joe models. It functions as the rotating shaft that supports the load roller bearings and enables the load wheel rotation.
Q: What material and finish does the PL 20215 have?
A: The PL 20215 is fabricated from high-strength carbon steel and finished with corrosion-resistant black oxide coating to protect against rust and extend service life in warehouse and outdoor material handling environments.
Q: How many bearings does the PL 20215 support?
A: The PL 20215 axle assembly is engineered to accept and support four ball bearings per assembly, with matching spacer washers included. This configuration supports tandem load roller configurations for load distribution.
Q: What cross-reference and equivalent part numbers exist for the PL 20215?
A: The PL 20215 cross-references to PM10215, LF-PL20215, and PL-20215-I. All these designations refer to the same Prestolite axle assembly. Verify part number compatibility with your equipment before ordering.
Q: Does the PL 20215 assembly include all required hardware?
A: Yes. The PL 20215 assembly includes the axle shaft, spacer washers, and hardware components (set screw and lock nut) required for complete installation. Bearings and load rollers are sold separately.
Q: What causes PL 20215 axle failure and when should it be replaced?
A: Replace the PL 20215 if the axle shaft bends, shows scoring or surface damage, threads strip, or bearing surfaces become pitted or worn. These conditions impair load roller alignment and cause load handling instability.
