Fork extensions offer a simple solution to the problem of an extra-large pallet or a load that is too large for your forklift truck's standard-length forks.
The fork extensions simply slide over your existing forks, adding a bit of extra length to better support the load. The extensions are secured with heel pins so they can't slide off when in use.
Before selecting your fork extensions, measure the width and thickness of your fork truck's forks. Then check the dimensions of the fork extensions to ensure they will fit. The extension length MUST NOT exceed 66% of the forks.
You MUST refer to the fork truck manufacturer's manual to ensure you do not exceed the loading capacity of the truck.
For any help or advice please contact our sales team, who are on hand to answer your questions.

SafetyLiftinGear recently supplied one of our fork truck attachment to Bristol's award winning visitor attraction, Brunel's ss Great Britain.
The LiftinGear 2 tonne fork truck attachment was used to allow a fork lift truck to operate like a crane by providing a central lifting point.
Being tested was a topsail yard that was 22mtrs long and 500kg in weight.
The yard was held at height with weights at each end for a period of time to ensure it was balanced and capable of holding its own weight once fixed aloft on the main mast as part of a project that will see the ss Great Britain's mast configuration as it was when she was launched in 1843.
