Fork Extensions - Heavy Duty Range

EFEX

Fork Extensions - Heavy Duty Range manufactured from 6mm steel. Ideal for extending any forklift's reach, allowing larger and longer loads to be lifted and transported safely. Our Fork Extensions are manufactured in the UK and available from stock today

£259.98 ex VAT

£311.98 inc VAT

Our best-selling Ultra Heavy Duty Fork Extensions are manufactured in the UK and supplied fully tested and certified. Supplied with extra strengthening, and thicker walls making them one of (if not) the strongest fork extensions on the UK market, to back up our confidence, this range of Forklift Fork extensions is supplied with a 3 Year warranty. Each set is fully tested and supplied with certification.

This quality range of fork extension is manufactured originally from 5mm steel then additional 8mm thick strengthening plates are added to the inside walls to create a wall thickness of 13mm, and additional cross plate added for greater stability. They fit easily and quickly to fork trucks and are held securely in place with the supplied heel pin. Unlike many cheaper options online these quality extensions offer many design benefits to aid in lifting and moving awkward shaped objects.
The easy-to-remove heel pin allows for quick drive-in entry, removing the need for any manual lifting from the forklift driver (in compliance with Health & Safety manual lifting regulations), whilst ensuring the fork extensions are safely secured to the truck forks.


Our FEX range of fork extensions are all supplied with capped rounded toes to help with durability and added strength. The rounded shape also allows for easy entry and exit from the load.

Forklift Fork Extensions are designed to help stabilise and offer safe handling of nonstandard loads when the standard forklift-fitted tines are not long enough.
Come complete with a closed section at the heel end to ensure suitability for any drop of fork - which is in compliance with BS EN13284.

Please note that the depth of the Fork Extensions is approx. 10mm deeper than the fork depth shown above.

Safety Note - Even though Forklift Extensions are used to extend the forklift's reach, overbalancing can happen and the rear of the forklift could rise off the floor and tip forward. It is stated that all fork extensions should not increase the length over the original forks by more than 66% also, the width of the new Fork Extension should not be wider than 12.5mm (1/2") If in any doubt please reference the manual of the Forklift being used. Example - If the original fork tines are 1200mm long then the new Fork extensions for the forklift should be no longer than 1992mm.


Please note - All Forks are sold as one pair.

If you do not see the size you require - Please contact us - as we can manufacture to most requirements.

Please note that all fork extensions from all manufacturers should not be kept on the forks permanently and should only be used to offer assistance when lifting and repositioning larger loads or to offer stability when required.

This Product is supplied with 3 year Manufacturer warranty, fully tested & certificated.
