Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the dimensions of the 270020 exit roller?
A: The intermediate exit roller is machined from high-carbon steel with an oil-impregnated bronze bushing for smooth operation.
Q: What pallet jack models use the 270020 exit roller?
A: The 270020 is designed for Wesco CPI series manual pallet jacks in the intermediate fork position. Confirm your equipment model before ordering. The roller is not interchangeable across different fork positions without verification.
Q: Why does the 270020 use an oil-impregnated bushing?
A: The oil-impregnated bronze bushing provides self-lubricating performance, reducing friction and wear on the roller shaft. This design minimizes the need for external lubrication and extends roller lifespan during repetitive lifting cycles.
Q: How long does the 270020 exit roller typically last?
A: High-carbon steel exit rollers typically perform for depending on load frequency, environmental conditions such as moisture and corrosive exposure, and surface cleanliness. Heavy daily use or harsh conditions may reduce lifespan. Replace when the roller becomes flat-spotted, cracked, or noticeably rough.
Q: Is this roller corrosion-resistant?
A: The 270020 is machined high-carbon steel with an uncoated finish, which means it is not inherently corrosion-resistant. In high-moisture or chemically harsh environments, regular maintenance and inspection are recommended to prevent rust and extend service life.
Q: Can the 270020 be used on other pallet jack brands?
A: The 270020 is specifically designed for Wesco CPI series equipment. Cross-compatibility with other manufacturers (Yale, Hyster, Raymond) is not recommended without dimensional and load path verification by a qualified technician.
