Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the PU C-50 roll pin and what is its purpose?
A: The PU C-50 is a spring-type roll pin used in manual pallet jack linkage retention. It secures linkage pivot points and prevents lateral movement during jack operation. Constructed of SAE 1070 medium carbon steel and through-hardened per ASTM A684 for durability.
Q: What are the dimensions and specifications of the PU C-50 roll pin?
A: The PU C-50 measures 0.1875 inch diameter by 1.50 inch length and complies with ANSI/ASME B18.8.2 standards. Material is SAE 1070 medium carbon steel, through-hardened to provide strength and spring retention in the linkage pivot bore.
Q: Which pallet jack models does the PU C-50 fit?
A: The PU C-50 is compatible with Pallet Mule AA5000 and AA5500 series manual pallet jacks. It also supersedes obsolete part numbers PUC-50 and PT C-50. Confirm your jack model matches AA5000 or AA5500 before ordering.
Q: What are the cross-reference and equivalent part numbers for the PU C-50?
A: The PU C-50 supersedes PUC-50 and PT C-50. It is equivalent to PTC-50. If you have an older pallet jack with superseded part numbers, the current PU C-50 provides the same form, fit, and function.
Q: What is the lifespan of the PU C-50 roll pin?
A: The PU C-50 roll pin is spring-hardened and designed for extended service life. Lifespan depends on load cycles and operating conditions. Signs of wear include loss of spring tension, visible corrosion, permanent deformation, or rattling in the linkage pivot. Replace if the pin no longer securely retains the linkage.
Q: How do I know if the PU C-50 roll pin needs replacement?
A: Replace the roll pin if you observe lateral movement in the linkage, rattling during jack operation, visible cracks or fractures in the pin, permanent bending, or if the pin falls out of the pivot bore. A failed roll pin can result in linkage collapse or unsafe jack operation.
