Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does the MU 20218 shoulder bolt fit?
A: The MU 20218 shoulder bolt is compatible with Multiton manual pallet jacks in models TM, M, and J. Verify that your pallet jack matches one of these Multiton models before ordering.
Q: What is the purpose of a shoulder bolt in a pallet jack?
A: A shoulder bolt provides a precision pivot point for load wheels and linkage components in manual pallet jacks. The shoulder portion acts as a spacer and bearing surface, allowing smooth articulation of the lift mechanism under load.
Q: How do I know if my MU 20218 shoulder bolt needs replacement?
A: Replace the shoulder bolt if you observe rough operation, binding, grinding sounds during lift cycles, or visible wear, scoring, or corrosion on the shoulder diameter. A damaged shoulder bolt will cause erratic lift height and poor load stability.
Q: Can the MU 20218 be used as a cross-reference for other shoulder bolts?
A: The MU 20218 is specific to Multiton models TM, M, and J. For shoulder bolts on other brands such as Crown, Toyota, or Raymond pallet jacks, contact us with your specific model number and we can provide the correct part.
Q: What material is the MU 20218 shoulder bolt made from?
A: The MU 20218 shoulder bolt is manufactured from hardened steel with a polished or zinc-plated finish to resist corrosion and wear. This material composition provides durability under continuous load cycling typical of manual pallet jack operation.
