Forged Steel Forks 60" x 1-3/4" - 5,000 lb

Use 60" forks when handling loads wider than 48" such as oversized pallets, double-deep pallet racking, or lumber bundles. The extra 18" of length gives the forks enough reach to fully support loads that would overhang standard 42" forks, preventing tip-forward risk and load instability.

These forks are rated at 5,000 lbs combined capacity for the pair. The load rating assumes proper Class II carriage mounting with carriage pin locks fully engaged. Keep in mind that longer forks shift the load center forward, which may reduce the forklift's rated lifting capacity.

Yes. Both the 42" and 60" forks use Class II carriage mounting with the same 1-3/4" thickness and 4" width. They are interchangeable on the same forklift. Swapping between lengths takes minutes with the carriage pin lock system included with each set.

The forks are made from forged steel, which is stronger than cast or welded steel at the same thickness. Forging aligns the steel grain structure along the fork's length for maximum bending resistance. This manufacturing process is required to meet I.T.A. safety standards for forklift forks.
