Pallet Forks
A fork frame carries palletised loads. Fork rating, load centre, attachment weight, lift position and the carrier's capacity all affect what can be handled safely.
When to choose it
- Moving palletised site materials
- Loading and unloading within the rated working limits
- Positioning materials on a firm, prepared surface
When it’s not the right call
- Personnel lifting. Ordinary pallet forks are not a platform for lifting people.
- Off-centre loads. Long or uneven loads change the load centre and stability. Fork rating alone is not enough.
- Soft or sloping ground. The route, lift position and ground must suit the rated carrier-and-fork combination.
Sizes we work with
The size depends on your machine and the job. Share the carrier make and model, material and dimensions so we can check the setup.

The Right Setup Starts Here
Tell us what you need to get done. A few key details about your job help us specify, configure and commission the right attachment for your machine, application and site requirements.
- Load: Weight, dimensions, centre of gravity and pallet openings.
- Lift: Required height, unloading reach and fork length/spacing.
- Route: Ground condition, slopes, access and separation from people.
- Your machine: Make, model, mounting plate, rated operating capacity and relevant hydraulic or electrical controls.

Common questions
What can I lift with skid steer pallet forks?
Palletised site materials within both the fork rating and the loader's rated capacity.
Does fork rating equal the loader's capacity?
No. Both limits apply, including attachment weight and load centre.
Can pallet forks lift people?
No. They are for suitable material loads only.
Do pallet forks need firm ground?
Yes, position loads on a firm, prepared surface.
Will a pallet fork fit my skid steer or track loader?
Send us the machine make and model, mounting plate details and hydraulic flow and pressure. The pallet fork's weight, the loader's rated operating capacity and any electrical controls also need to match. We check the combination before it mobilises so it arrives ready to work.
