EXIT ROLLER
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is an exit roller and where does it fit on a manual pallet jack?
A: An exit roller is a small wheel attached to the jack frame that prevents the forks from tilting or binding when removing the pallet jack from under a loaded pallet. It keeps the forks aligned during entry and exit.
Q: What pallet jack models does SKU 3127820 fit?
A: This exit roller is compatible with manual pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and Yale. Verify your jack model and frame design, as roller mounting locations vary between manufacturers.
Q: What material is the exit roller made from?
A: The exit roller typically features a polyurethane or nylon wheel on a steel axle. Polyurethane offers better grip and durability on concrete floors, while maintaining smooth rolling.
Q: How often does an exit roller need replacement?
A: Exit rollers typically last 3 to 5 years with regular use. Replace when the wheel is worn flat, cracked, or no longer grips the floor, or if the axle is bent or loose.
Q: What happens if the exit roller is worn or missing?
A: A worn exit roller allows the forks to tilt, scrape, or bind on the floor during pallet removal, reducing control and causing floor damage. This also increases operator injury risk and can damage pallet loads.
Q: Is this exit roller the same across different pallet jack sizes?
A: No. Exit roller size and mounting specifications vary based on jack capacity and frame width. A 2500 lb jack uses a different roller than a 5500 lb jack. Match your exact jack model before ordering.
