With summer reaching its swansong, here at SafetyLiftinGear.com, we’ve decided to welcome in the autumn the only way we know how – with more new lifting products, of course!
This time, to broaden our lifting horizons even further, we’ve expanded our collection of products from German brand, Pfaff.
Renowned for their strength, quality and durability, Pfaff has gained a solid reputation for their heavy-duty lifting gear – and these products only strengthen that status.
When it comes to heavy lifting, Pfaff is a go-to brand for many. Take a look at these newly listed Pfaff pallet trucks and see just why!
Measuring 540mm x 1150mm and weighing just 68kg, the Pfaff Silverline 2500kg packs some serious pound for pound strength, capable of lifting over 36 times its own weight.
Featuring a high-quality epoxy coating, rubber rollers for noise reduction and an ergonomic handle for maximum comfort, no stone has been left unturned in pursuit of usability.
The one-hand control mechanism also has a 210-degree rotation for manoeuvrability and even features an adjustable pressure control valve to prevent overloading. It also boasts a precision lowering valve, allowing you to easily control the lowering speed.
This model, as you may guess by the “Extra Wide” moniker, is slightly broader than our last entry. In fact, it’s almost 60% broader measuring 850mm wide.
This additional range makes it perfect for lifting and moving specialist items, such as American pallets or brickyard pallets.
Outside of width, the Pfaff Silverline Extra Wide is much like the Silverline 2500kg, offering an ergonomic handle, adjustable pressure control valve and one-hand controllability.
However, while this wide span does make it useful for girthier items, it’s worth noting that this model does have a lower weight capacity, topping out at 2000kg.
Part of the Proline range, the Low Profile model is tailor-made for lifting pallets with a notably lower height, with a lowered fork height of just 51mm.
Meanwhile, this model also features a high-performance hydraulic pump, complete with a chromium-plated piston and pressure relief valve.
It also boasts superior handling capabilities, with a steering angle of 105 degrees to each side, providing accurate movement even in confined spaces.
With a maximum load capacity of 2 tonnes, the Pfaff Quick Lift has the weight advantage over the Low Profile; however, it also more than lives up to its name.
Providing speedy transportation of pallets under demanding conditions, the Quick Lift is capable of hoisting 200kg in just two strokes of the handle.
While this pallet truck does feature many of the perks of the Low Profile – from steering angle to hydraulic pump – it also has some handy additions.
Notably, this model also features a driving/park brake that’s easily operated from the control handle.
With a heavy load capacity and sturdy frame, the Proline Parking Brake model is perfect for moving and transporting palletised goods on unsteady surfaces, such as ramps, slopes and on lorries.
With most of the perks of the Quick Lift (minus the quick lift function), this pallet truck is a versatile option that provides safe manoeuvrability and stability with extreme strength for heavy-duty lifting.

Anyone that works in a factory, warehouse or anywhere involving repetitive tool processes will be well aware of the benefits of spring balancers. If not, it’s high time you get educated!
Spring balancers allow you to easily and efficiently use a suspended tool with very little effort or exertion; e.g. a welding gun on a production line, paint spraying equipment in a garage or even X-ray apparatus.
Benefitting from an up/down freedom of motion, this piece of equipment can be adjusted to stay in position or retract based on the needs of the worker and nature of the task, taking the weight off the worker to quite literally lighten the load.
At SLG, we stock a number of spring balancers from US-based industrial equipment giants, Yale.
With a history that dates all the way back to 1844, Yale has worked tirelessly to become one of the pre-eminent worldwide leaders in forklifts and warehouse solutions.
Today, Yale is part of the Hyster-Yale group, a publicly traded company on the NY Stock Exchange and internationally recognised with a variety of awards and accreditations.
Suffice to say, Yale has a bulletproof reputation within the industry for their top-quality reliable equipment and these tool balancer products are no exception.
Yale’s YBF Series is offers safe and simple service through the containerised spring cartridge, capable of handling up to 100kg in weight.
This model also includes an anti-wear feature that prevents damage to the aluminium housing. This can be even be replaced without dismantling the housing.

The YBF series also offers a variety of safety perks, notably its enclosed body design, preventing hand injuries such as trapped fingers.
The YBF Series is available in the following models:
