Folding forks are designed to fold at the heel on a pin, allowing the blade to be placed in a vertical position, and secured with a chain. Folding forks are often necessary when operating forklifts in a confined and restricted work environment and for forklifts that are transported to different work sites on trailers.
Folding forks consist of a blade, upright, pin and either a hook or shaft mount attachment. There is a chain attached to a pin that wraps around the blade. The chain locks into a pin retainer to ensure the blade is held in the vertical position. There are many variables to be considered when ordering a folding fork assembly, so please contact us to assist you to design a safe and reliable product.
