Fork Extensions

Unlock the potential of your forklift and gain better control over bulky and unwieldy loads with Fork Extensions by Star Industries. These essential accessories are designed for swift and effortless installation, providing you with the extra fork length you need in a matter of seconds.

Key Considerations:

• Size Guidelines: Keep in mind that the overall length of your fork extension should not exceed 150% of your forklift's original fork length. Maintaining this balance ensures safe and efficient load handling.

• Width Compatibility: When selecting fork extensions, make sure that the inside width of the extension is not more than ½" wider than the original fork. This ensures a secure fit and minimizes the risk of load instability.

• Load Center Impact: Be aware that extending the center of load beyond the standard 2 ft. load center can significantly reduce your forklift's capacity. Proper weight distribution is key to safe and effective operation.

• Proper Usage: Avoid picking up loads with the tip of the fork extensions to prevent instability and maintain load security. Focus the load on the fork extensions or closer to the backstop for optimal performance.
