Aardwolf DFB2-5000 Double Forklift Boom
Description
Description
The Aardwolf Double Forklift Boom is a telescoping two-section rectangular tube steel boom designed for removing bundles of marble and granite slabs from closed-top containers. Thanks to its design, without any impediments between the fork booms, the operator can insert the full length of the booms into the container and bring the load right back to the fork mask, allowing for greater load capacity and more stability. This attachment can support a load capacity of up to 5,000kg. Installing it is very simple, thanks to its double-fork design. The Aardwolf Double Forklift Boom is powder-coated for extra durability and longevity, so the operator can use it for years to come.
Made for use on 8-tonne and larger forklift trucks.
It offers versatility with maximum visibility for the driver.
The boom extensions are designed so that they cannot be pulled all the way out.
The open hooks are designed for the quick and easy hooking of flat web sling eyes.
