Product Details
Wesco® forklift fork extensions are available in pairs and are constructed from heavy-duty welded steel for enhanced durability and strength. Each extension features a steel restraining strap that effectively prevents the extensions from sliding off the forks during operation. These extensions are designed for use with lift truck forks that have a maximum thickness of 2 inches. It is important to note that OSHA requires users to contact the manufacturer of their forklift for written approval prior to using any forklift attachment. Additionally, OSHA standards stipulate that the length of the fork extensions must not exceed the lift truck fork length by more than 50%; for instance, if the lift truck forks are 48 inches long, the extensions should not exceed 72 inches. Furthermore, the use of fork extensions will affect the lift truck's capacity, and it is advisable to consult the lift truck manufacturer for load capacity reductions.
