The Low Profile Forklift Crane Jib is designed for suspended lifting applications where a lower overall attachment height is required. Built for forklift truck use, this low profile jib allows suitable loads to be lifted and positioned using a fixed 1800mm beam with multiple lifting points.
Supplied with a hook and shackle, this forklift crane jib is suitable for workshops, warehouses, factories, yards and industrial sites where machinery, equipment, frames, motors, tooling and other compatible suspended loads need to be handled safely.
Low Profile Forklift Crane Jib for Suspended Loads
This low profile forklift crane jib is designed to convert a forklift truck into a practical lifting solution for suitable suspended loads. The low liner design helps reduce the overall height of the attachment compared with raised beam alternatives, making it useful where headroom or load height needs to be considered.
The fixed 1800mm beam includes six lifting points, allowing the hook position to be adjusted depending on the required reach and load position. As with all forklift lifting attachments, the safe working capacity will depend on the forklift truck, load centre, lifting point and operating conditions.

Choosing the Right Forklift Crane Jib
The correct forklift crane jib will depend on the type of load being lifted, the required reach, the available headroom and the rated capacity of your forklift truck. This low profile model is a good option where the overall attachment height needs to be kept lower while still providing multiple lifting points along a fixed beam.
Before ordering, check your forklift truck capacity, fork size, load weight and lifting requirements. The further the hook is positioned from the forklift carriage, the lower the effective lifting capacity will usually become. Always confirm that the selected jib and forklift truck are suitable for the intended load and lifting position.
Low Profile vs Raised Forklift Lifting Jibs
| Product Type | Best For | Main Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Low Profile Forklift Crane Jib | Suspended lifting where lower attachment height is preferred | Lower profile fixed beam design |
| Raised Forklift Lifting Jib | General suspended lifting where additional beam height is useful | Raised beam clearance for certain load types |
| Telescopic Forklift Crane Jib | Applications requiring adjustable reach | Extendable beam for variable lifting positions |
Safety and Operation
Forklift crane jibs must only be used by trained operators and within the rated capacity of both the forklift truck and the attachment. The load must be secure, balanced and suitable for suspended lifting before the operation begins.
Always check the lifting point, hook position, load weight and forklift capacity before use. Loads should be lifted smoothly, kept as low as practical during travel and never handled above personnel. Site lifting procedures, inspection requirements and relevant health and safety guidance should always be followed.

FAQs
What is a low profile forklift crane jib used for?
A low profile forklift crane jib is used for lifting and positioning suitable suspended loads with a forklift truck. It is commonly used for machinery, motors, equipment, tooling, frames and other compatible lifting tasks in workshops, warehouses, factories and yards.
What does low profile mean?
Low profile refers to the lower beam design of the attachment. This can be useful where the overall height of the lifting attachment needs to be reduced compared with raised beam forklift jibs.
What beam length does this forklift jib have?
This low profile forklift crane jib has a fixed 1800mm beam length.
How many lifting points does it have?
The jib has six lifting points, allowing the hook position to be adjusted depending on the required reach and load position.
Is a hook and shackle included?
Yes, this forklift crane jib is supplied with a hook and shackle.
What forklift capacity options are available?
This product is available for forklift truck capacities from 1000kg to 5000kg. Always select the correct option for your forklift truck and lifting requirements.
Can this be used for all suspended loads?
No. The load must be suitable for suspended lifting and must remain within the rated capacity of the forklift truck and attachment. The safe working capacity can change depending on hook position, load centre and operating conditions.
Do I need a telescopic jib instead?
If you need adjustable reach, a telescopic forklift crane jib may be more suitable. If you need a fixed beam with a lower attachment profile, this low profile forklift crane jib is the better option.
