The BendPak 5216520 replacement hardware is the direct replacement for the BendPak lift it came off of. This is the genuine BendPak part — same fit and same working specification as the one already on your lift. Ordering the BendPak replacement hardware from us gets you the OEM piece that matches the lift, not an aftermarket knock-off that is close but not the same.
Specifications
- Part number: 5216520
- Brand: BendPak
- Type: Genuine OEM replacement hardware
On lift hardware, fit is the whole job. A pin is not a rod of roughly the right diameter — it is a specific length, a specific fit in its bore, and a specific way of being retained, whether that is an e-clip groove, a cotter key hole, or a shoulder. A bushing is a precise interference in its housing and a precise clearance on its shaft. Manufacturer-spec hardware carries all of those dimensions; the hardware-aisle stand-in carries some of them, and the missing ones become play, wobble, and premature wear. This is a spec-correct replacement for the assembly it belongs to — it goes in the way the original came out, retained the way the original was retained.
Check your lift's serial before ordering
The most common reason a lift part comes back is not a defect — it is a revision mismatch. Manufacturers change sub-parts between production runs while keeping the same lift model name, so "it fits my lift model" is not always enough. The model plate carries the serial number that pins your lift to a specific run, and that is the number that settles which version of this part belongs on your lift.
Can't find the plate? Measure the old part — overall length, bolt-hole spacing, thread size on anything threaded — and photograph it from a couple of angles. Send that with your lift's brand and rough age and we will match it against the parts breakdowns we service from every week.
Lay the new piece against the old before installing: length, diameter, groove and hole positions, thread pitch. If the old part is too worn to compare against, check the new part in its bore or against its mate by hand — it should fit the way a machined part fits, snug and smooth, not loose and not forced. Replace the retaining clips and keys while you are there; they are one-use money.
Retention is not optional. A pin without its e-clip, cotter key, or bolt is a pin working its way out under vibration, and what it drops depends on where it lives. If the retainer came off damaged, replace it — never spring a used clip back on and call it held.

About this bendpak 5216520 screw pad
The bendpak 5216520 screw pad is a direct-fit replacement engineered to restore original manufacturer performance on the lift model it services. Every piece we ship carries the exact dimensional and material specifications the OEM published for that application. Fitment on this component is critical: it interfaces with adjacent hardware in ways that any deviation from spec can drive premature wear on nearby parts or trigger the lift's mechanical safety systems into an unexpected condition. Shops that source this from us instead of a generic aftermarket substitute consistently report zero fitment issues on first-time installation.
Technical specification & installation notes
Torque and installation notes for this component follow the manufacturer's service manual. Where a torque value is called out, use a calibrated torque wrench and follow the tightening sequence the manual publishes for that fastener location — many lift assemblies require star-pattern or crosswise tightening to distribute load evenly. Skipping that step is one of the most common reasons a correctly-sourced bendpak 5216520 screw pad still ends up needing to be re-serviced within a year. Our tech line at 800-674-9302 will walk your installer through the procedure if the shop does not have the current service manual on hand.
Shipping & ordering
Shipping runs 3-5 business days on standard ground to the lower 48 states. Expedited overnight and two-day options are available; call 800-674-9302 before ordering to quote expedited freight. We stock the bendpak 5216520 screw pad in Iowa and ship same-day for orders confirmed before 2 PM Central. Orders that come in later than that or on a Friday afternoon pick up on the next business day. A tracking number gets emailed to the address on the order the moment the package leaves our dock.
Warranty coverage
Consumables and wear parts like this are covered under the manufacturer defect warranty for twelve months. Because the bendpak 5216520 screw pad is a component that eventually needs replacement in normal operation, warranty coverage specifically addresses failure due to manufacturing defect, not failure due to normal end-of-life wear. Our team can help distinguish between the two on a phone call if there is any question after installation — call 800-674-9302 and describe the failure pattern; we will tell you honestly whether it looks like a warranty case.
Cross-reference & fitment
Alternate applications for the bendpak 5216520 screw pad sometimes exist. Where a common part fits multiple lift models across a manufacturer's catalog, cross-reference sheets show the compatible models explicitly. If you are consolidating parts stock and want to know which of your lifts the piece covers, email the request to [email protected] with a list of the lift models in your bay — we return a compatibility grid showing which lifts accept the replacement and which need a different number.
