Fork Extensions - Standard Use Forklift Extensions

The forklift extensions allow handling of large and odd shaped loads with better stability and reduced product damage.

Simply slide forklift extensions over fork and the extensions will lie on top of your fork and lock under fork hanger.

Each forklift extension is constructed from structural channel, and features plasma cut taper on the front tip and has 1/2″x1″ flat hanger.

Welded loop on end of extension keeps it in place and makes it convenient to take on and off. The standard welded loop position is set to handle up to 2″ thick forks. Thicker forks can be accommodated upon request.

ANSI requires that forklift fork extensions cannot exceed 1.5 times the length of the fork. Forklift extensions are designed for hook type forks only. Click for data information on extensions.

As with all forklift attachments, OSHA 1910.178(a)(4) requires the customer obtain from the forklift manufacturer written approval and data tag(s) that reflect the attachment.
