Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the JT PT2036-3-4 roll pin used for?
A: The JT PT2036-3-4 is a roll pin designed for Jet PT2036 and PTW manual pallet jack assemblies. Roll pins are hollow cylindrical fasteners used to join components, secure lever linkages, and provide shear-load capability in material handling equipment.
Q: Which Jet pallet jack models use the JT PT2036-3-4?
A: The JT PT2036-3-4 roll pin fits Jet PT2036 series pallet trucks and Jet PTW manual pallet jacks. Verify the bore diameter and length match your assembly before ordering.
Q: What is the advantage of a roll pin over a solid pin?
A: Roll pins are hollow and slightly compressed during installation, allowing them to self-expand and grip the bore walls from inside. This design provides secure retention without requiring a tight press fit, reduces installation force, and accommodates minor bore variations in manual pallet jacks.
Q: How do I know if a roll pin needs replacement?
A: Replace a roll pin if it shows excessive wear, corrosion, deformation, or if components begin to shift or rattle in their bores. Roll pins generally last the life of the pallet jack but may require replacement if exposed to corrosive environments or repeated stress cycles.
Q: What is the material composition of roll pins?
A: Most roll pins including the JT PT2036-3-4 are manufactured from spring steel or alloy steel, providing adequate shear strength and fatigue resistance for manual pallet jack linkages and component retention.
