It can transform your extendable reach forklift into an efficient loading machine and material handler. This setup would offer greater range as opposed to standard loaders and have a lot more adaptability on the whole. Completing tasks like for example placing gravel on a large, flat roof to dumping trash into a dumpster could all be quickly and safely completed.

Universal Fit Buckets
"Slip on the forks" attachment buckets or otherwise called Universal Fit buckets can be used along with any model or design of extendable reach forklift. If your unit is unable to be matched with a quick-tach component, another new or used universal fit bucket could be located in its place. Regular universal forklift buckets connect to blades which are up to 6" wide and are 48" long. Larger fork pockets can be prearranged via an account executive upon request.
For the reason that universal fit lift truck buckets slip onto the forks directly, they stay on the equipment and are a lot less vulnerable to damage. These buckets are also fifty percent deeper than the quick-tach bucket models. This extra space makes them ideal for carrying irregular shaped loads like for example backfilling behind walls, tearing off roof trash, elevating roof gravel, moving large debris piles and broken up concrete.
Quick-Tach Buckets
Quick-Tach Buckets are made for extendable-reach lift trucks. They are built to allow positioning of material far beyond the reach of a loader. A hardened beveled cutting blade on the leading edge and on both sides reinforces strength, resistance to wear and offers supreme durability. Quick-Tach forklift buckets are enhanced by scuff bars along the bottom of the unit that shield it from abrasion.
Quick-Tach lift truck buckets could be used to substitute the carriage and forks which weigh between 100-700lbs. Once installed, these buckets free up more of the unit's cargo capacity, enabling it to deal with heavier and bigger stuff. The Quick-Tach can pour objects about 1.5 feet higher due to the shorter depth of its bucket. These buckets are fabricated in a customized fashion in order to meet all the specifications of certain makes and models of lift trucks. It is vital to consult a construction equipment specialist in order to find the modified Quick-Tach bucket solution for your requirements.
