How to Choose the Right Fork Extensions for Your Fork Truck

How to Choose the Right Fork Extensions for Your Fork Truck



Fork extensions on a forklift truck

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.

How to Calculate Fork Extensions

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.
