Folding spreader beam for forks

Description

The folding spreader beam is an intelligent solution for warehouses that need to safely transport large-sized loads while valuing every inch of free space. This specialised attachment combines the rigidity and strength of a classic load-bearing beam with a functional design that facilitates equipment storage when not in use.

Safe transport of oversized loads

The primary function of the spreader beam is to increase the working surface of the forklift. Standard forks are often too narrow to stably support long pipes, wide plates, or flexible structural elements. The spreader beam extends the support points, preventing the load from swaying or getting damaged. As a result, transporting goods with non-standard dimensions becomes smooth and safe.

“Folding” functionality: Space saving

What sets this model apart is its mobility. After work is finished, the spreader beam can be folded (depending on the model: arms folding to the side or a telescopic design), which drastically reduces its dimensions. This means the unused attachment takes up a minimum amount of space in the warehouse—a key advantage in smaller halls or workshops.

Solid mounting and craftsmanship

Despite the moving parts, the construction remains extremely rigid during operation. Made of high-strength closed profiles, it ensures high load capacity. Mounting safety is guaranteed by fork pockets equipped with pressure bolts. Tightening them eliminates play and prevents the spreader beam from shifting on the forklift carriage. The entire unit is coated with anti-corrosion paint with a smooth structure, ensuring durability and ease of cleaning.

Choose the folding spreader beam if you are looking for a compromise between the ability to transport large loads and saving space in the warehouse.
