Self Levelling Pallet Crane Forks – 2000kg or 3000kg
Price and lead time confirmed with your quote
Prices depend on the model and options you need, so every lifting attachment is quoted individually.
Self levelling pallet crane forks keep the forks level as the load changes, so you can lift loaded or empty pallets with an overhead or lorry loader crane without resetting the hook point between lifts. They suit sites that move mixed pallets all day, such as builders' merchants and busy construction sites.
A double spring mechanism, enclosed in protective steel cylinders, balances the head to the weight on the forks. The fork centres and height adjust to suit the pallet. Choose the 2000kg model with 970mm forks, the 3000kg model with 1170mm forks, or the 2000kg model with a safety net frame for loads that could shed.

Before You Order
The spring levelling needs a minimum load to work: 200kg on the 2000kg models and 600kg on the 3000kg model. For lighter loads, the bow and eye pallet crane forks are the better choice. Your crane lifts the forks as well as the pallet, so add 170kg or 230kg to the load when you check its rating at the working radius, and check your tallest load fits under the frame.
Crane forks are lifting accessories under LOLER, so they need a thorough examination at least every six months unless your examination scheme says otherwise. Read how to lift pallets with a crane safely, then request a quote with your crane and load details.
