Invicta Four Fork Attachment

Model IFF | Four Fork Configuration | Up to 3000kg Capacity | UK Manufactured

The Invicta Four Fork Attachment (Model IFF) is designed to provide a method of lifting and moving unpalletised loads such as timber planks, sheet steel and tubing, plastic pipes and concrete lintels safely — minimising the potential of damaging the product. The four parallel forks cradle long loads from underneath, distributing the weight evenly and preventing the bowing or sagging that can occur with standard two-fork handling. Available in four widths from 1500mm to 3000mm with capacities up to 3000kg at 600mm load centre. Manufactured in Leeds by Invicta Forks & Attachments.
