The Carpet Pole with Carriage Mount for Forklifts is an essential tool designed to optimize the handling and transportation of heavy rolled materials within industrial and warehousing environments. The pole is crafted from stress-proof, high-tensile steel, ensuring durability and a long service life even under rigorous use. This robust construction allows the pole to safely carry heavy loads up to 2,500 to 3,000 pounds when evenly distributed, making it an ideal solution for moving large rolls of carpet, vinyl, and other materials that can be challenging to handle manually.
The design of the Carpet Prong features a tapered tip, which significantly simplifies the process of inserting the pole into the core of rolled materials, minimizing the risk of damage to the products. The pole is available in standard diameters of 2.5 inches, with options to upgrade to 2.75 inches or 3 inches for added strength and capacity, accommodating various sizes and weights of materials. It attaches seamlessly to the fork carriage of a forklift, enhancing the versatility and functionality of the forklift by transforming it into a specialized handling device.
The installation and securing of the pole are made straightforward with a bolt-on bottom block design and a pin kit for attachment, ensuring stability and safety during operation. The pole's backplate is designed to allow the pole to pass completely through, providing additional assurance that the load remains secure throughout the transport process. Furthermore, the set screws are a smart feature for maintaining the pole's position, preventing slippage or rotation during use.
Overall, the Carpet Pole with Carriage Mount is an indispensable tool for businesses that require efficient, safe handling of rolled materials. It promises to reduce the physical strain on workers, mitigate safety risks associated with manual handling, and improve the overall productivity of material transport within a storage or distribution facility. With its sturdy construction and thoughtful design, this forklift attachment stands out as a reliable and cost-effective solution for a wide range of material handling needs.
