Bushings for Rol-Lift Series T and E

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the specifications of the RL 3-27020 nylon bushing?
A: The RL 3-27020 is an extruded engineering grade nylon bushing (ASTM D4066 PA) with a 0.75 inch outer diameter and 0.125 inch wall thickness. It is uncoated, natural nylon finish. This material provides excellent wear resistance and self-lubricating properties for high-cycle pivot linkage applications.

Q: Which Rol-Lift pallet jack models use the RL 3-27020 bushing?
A: The RL 3-27020 is compatible with Rol-Lift Series T and Series E manual pallet jack handle assemblies. It is engineered for pivot linkage mounting in these model lines.

Q: Why is engineering grade nylon specified for the RL 3-27020?
A: Engineering grade nylon per ASTM D4066 PA provides superior load-bearing strength, abrasion resistance, and self-lubrication compared to standard polymers. This material withstands high-cycle warehouse and material handling environments without degradation or creep.

Q: How long does the RL 3-27020 bushing typically last?
A: Lifespan depends on usage intensity and maintenance. In typical warehouse environments with regular use, expect 2 to 4 years. High-cycle operations or inadequate linkage lubrication may shorten service life. Replace when visible wear, increased play, or loss of smooth pivot motion occurs.

Q: Does the RL 3-27020 have any cross-reference or alternate part numbers?
A: The RL 3-27020 may be referenced as RL3-27020 or 3-27020 in some documentation. Verify the exact SKU on your equipment or original parts list. No direct OEM supersede or cross-reference to other manufacturers is documented.
