Forklift Tow Hitch – 3000kg Ball & Pin
Delivery within 7–10 Working Days*
A forklift tow hitch lets you move trailers, bowsers, generators and other wheeled equipment around your site with the forklift you already have. It slides onto the forks, heel pins lock it in place, and the 50mm ball and pin lets you pull or push the load into position.
The hitch is rated at 3000kg. The fork pockets are big enough to drive straight into, so one person can fit it in a couple of minutes, and it's painted safety yellow so it stands out on the front of the truck.

Before You Order
Forklifts aren't all built to tow, so check with your forklift supplier or manufacturer that your truck is suitable for towing and what limits apply. Keep the towed load within both the hitch's 3000kg rating and your forklift's towing limit. If you'd like a second opinion, send us your forklift details. Delivery is usually 7 to 10 working days.
Tow Our Salt Spreader
The hitch pairs with our towable forklift salt spreader for gritting yards in winter. See the full forklift snow ploughs and salt spreaders range, or browse all forklift attachments.
Moving Cars?
The tow hitch is for trailers, bowsers and other wheeled equipment. To move cars, the forklift car mover lifts a car by its front wheel so you can tow it into place with nobody in the driver's seat.
Towing With a Telehandler?
The telehandler tow hitch has a 1200mm arm with the same 50mm ball and pin, rated at 3000kg.
