Essentially this hook assembly allows you to use your forklift truck like a crane by lifting loads slung under the forks. This can be helpful in various contexts, especially if you are hoping to move loads which are not palletised without having to rely on a separate crane or gantry system to get the job done.
This attachment is easy to slide onto the forks and the retaining bars hold it firmly in place behind the fork heels.
There are 2 fixed reach sizes available; 600mm or 900mm (depending on model). We also stock the FMHA, again made by Contact, which is an adjustable hook attachment that can be positioned in several places on the forklift’s tines to deliver the best results regardless of the load’s dimensions.
This product is fitted with a high quality hook and shackle to enable safe and secure lifting. With 12 different examples of the Contact FMH available, you need to look carefully at the load capacity that each provides, as well as its dimensions, to determine the best choice. WLLs start at 1000kg and rise to 5000kg, which should provide enough choice for most potential users.
Our forklift hook attachment range is a comparatively small category in the wider scope of our full material handling product line up.
You can find load moving equipment including scissor lift tables and pallet trucks, as well as drum handling equipment. Whether you need just one product or several, LGD will be able to supply everything at a competitive price.
