Forklift Carpet Poles

Forklift Carpet Poles

Rolled carpets are rolled so tightly they appear easy to carry. But we don’t have to tell you how unwieldy and even heavy they are. And since you are likely store at least some carpet rolls on high shelves in your warehouse, it can be dangerous for employees to remove from the shelf by hand.

Enter carpet poles. Sometimes called carpet rams, rug poles or rug rams, it’s all the same thing. These poles, attached as a forklift attachment, allows the driver to insert the pole into the rolled carpet’s middle (core), lifting the carpet from its shelf and moving it another location.

And our poles are not limited to transporting just carpet rolls. These are great for moving vinyl flooring rolls, textile or fabric rolls, coiled hoses and cables, synthetic turf, rubber roofing, PVC – anything that has a hole that need to move (up to 2,500 pounds). Not sure if it fits your application? Just give us a call.

Our poles are made of high-tensile steel and the standard models are 2.5” in diameter, allowing them to carry carpet rolls of up to 2,500 pounds (so long as the load is evenly distributed).

The poles can be attached to the forklift trucks lifting mechanism (fork carriage) itself via out carriage mount or attached to the lift’s forks via one of our fork mounted options.
