FORK PROTECTION SLEEVE COVERS - LTFPS RANGE
Protect your loads and forks with durable Fork Protection Sleeve Covers. Designed to prevent damage, these covers are ideal for safeguarding sensitive goods during forklift operations in industrial and commercial settings.
Fork Protection Sleeve Covers - LTFPS Range
Product Overview
The Fork Protection Sleeve Covers in the LTFPS Range are designed to enhance the functionality of standard forklift extensions by incorporating a durable 3mm thick polyurethane coating. This coating significantly reduces product marking and damage that can occur with conventional steel forks, providing a reliable solution for handling delicate or easily damaged goods.
Key Features
- Durable Polyurethane Coating: A 3mm thick spray-coated polyurethane layer is strongly bonded to the fork sleeve, offering exceptional durability and resistance to wear, unlike rubber coatings that may peel over time.
- Enhanced Product Protection: The polyurethane coating minimizes steel-on-steel contact, effectively reducing the risk of product damage during handling.
- Anti-Slip Properties: Optional sprinkled rubber crumb can be supplied upon request to provide additional anti-slip characteristics, ensuring safer material handling operations.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from 8mm thick steel with additional 5mm thick internal strengthening plates, these sleeves are built for maximum durability and longevity.
- Easy Attachment: Features a fixed retaining bar (or retaining pins for extensions longer than 2000mm) to securely attach the sleeves to the forklift forks, ensuring stability during use.
- Compliance with Standards: Conforms to ISO 13284 British Standards and is 'CE' marked, supplied with a Certificate of Conformity to meet Health & Safety Regulations.
