📘 Overview
A Star Industries forklift concrete hopper places concrete in hard-to-reach areas using the forklift already on site, saving the cost of a pump or a crane. The 1575 holds 3/4 cubic yard, enough to place a meaningful pour in one trip. An adjustable swivel chute with 30 inch effective length swings through 40 degrees, 20 degrees to each side, and is fully adjustable with a chain — so concrete goes where it is needed rather than where the machine can park. The discharge gate is manually controlled by a handle with multiple positions available, and the hopper is universal fit slip-on-the-forks.

🔑 Why Buyers Choose the Star Industries 1575 Forklift Concrete Hopper
- It replaces a pump hire for small pours — bringing a pump to site for three quarters of a yard is not economic. A hopper on the forklift already there places the same concrete for the cost of the attachment.
- The swivel chute is why placement is accurate — 30 inches of chute swinging 20 degrees each side means the forklift parks where it can and the concrete still goes where it must. A fixed-outlet hopper places only where the machine can reach.
- Manual gate control meters the pour — a handle with multiple positions lets the operator open the gate partially, which is the difference between filling a form and burying it.
- No moving hydraulics to contaminate — concrete, dust and dirt destroy hydraulic components. A manually operated gate has nothing for the mix to get into.
- Crane pick points are available as an option — the same hopper can then be flown by crane where a forklift cannot reach, rather than buying a second concrete bucket.

🔗 The Swivel Chute and Crane Pick Points
The adjustable swivel chute is included, not an accessory — 30 inches of effective length, swinging 40 degrees in total and fully adjustable with a chain, which is what lets the operator direct the pour without repositioning the machine. The discharge gate is manually controlled with a handle and multiple handle positions are available. Optional crane pick points can be specified if you want the same hopper to work below a hook as well as on forks. For skid steer work rather than forklift, the Star 120 and 125 concrete placement buckets are the equivalent attachment.
🚜 Which Forklifts Fit This Forklift Concrete Hopper?
The 1575 is a universal fit slip-on-the-forks attachment and suits straight mast and extendable reach forklifts alike. It accepts forks up to 2.5 inches thick and up to 7 inches wide, so measure yours before ordering. Concrete is heavy — three quarters of a cubic yard weighs roughly 3,000 lb depending on the mix — so check your machine load chart at the height and reach you intend to place at rather than at the standard load centre. Optional crane pick points allow use below a hook where a forklift cannot reach.

❓ Star Industries 1575 Forklift Concrete Hopper Questions, Answered
How much concrete does the hopper hold?
Three quarters of a cubic yard. That weighs roughly 3,000 lb depending on the mix, so check your forklift load chart at the height and reach you are placing at rather than the rated capacity at standard load centre.
How does the swivel chute work?
The chute has a 30 inch effective length and swings 40 degrees in total, 20 degrees to each side, and is fully adjustable with a chain. That lets the operator direct the pour without repositioning the machine, which is the main advantage over a fixed-outlet hopper.
How is the discharge controlled?
By a manually operated gate with a handle, and multiple handle positions are available. Manual control lets the operator open the gate partially and meter the pour, and it means there are no hydraulics for concrete dust and dirt to contaminate.
Can this replace a concrete pump?
For small pours, often yes. Bringing a pump to site for three quarters of a yard is rarely economic, and a hopper on the forklift already on site places the same concrete. For large continuous pours a pump is still the right tool.
Will it fit my forklift?
It is a universal fit slip-on-the-forks attachment accepting forks up to 2.5 inches thick and up to 7 inches wide, suiting both straight mast and extendable reach machines. Measure your forks before ordering.
Can the hopper be used with a crane?
Optional crane pick points are available, which lets the same hopper work below a hook where a forklift cannot reach. Specify them when ordering.
Is there a version for a skid steer?
Yes. The Star 120 and 125 concrete placement buckets are the skid steer equivalent, at 1/2 and 3/4 cu yd, mounting on the universal quick attach coupler instead of the forks.
What is the hopper made from?
Heavy gauge steel with all welded construction. There are no flimsy chutes to tear up, no gates to freeze with old concrete, and no hydraulics to be contaminated by dust and dirt.
What warranty comes with the concrete hopper?
The Star Industries 1575 concrete hopper carries a 5-year factory guarantee and is made in the USA.
