Bolt-On Forks

Bolt-On Forks are attached to the carriage (fork carrier) with bolts instead of hooks or a tube. This design greatly diminishes any movement of the forks when loaded or when the lift truck is in motion.

  • Usually the fork is bolted all the way up the upright.
  • In most instances, the bolt-on design reduces deflection in the upright of the fork, thus reducing the overall deflection.
  • The forks can either be bolted on from the front or the back of the carrier.
  • If bolted from the front, the holes will be counter-bored/sunk to alleviate projection of the bolt heads and damaging product.
  • Obtaining the correct bolt-hole pattern for each set of forks is very important. If measuring the pattern on-site, it is important to first identify if the bolt pattern is inch or metric. Attachment make and model information is also helpful.
  • Bolt holes should not be drilled on the outside heel radius. The start of a bolt-hole pattern should begin at a minimum of 152.4 mm above the top of the blade.
