The Invicta Magnetic Rubber Fork Cover (Model IMRC) increases friction between the forklift forks and the product being lifted, preventing slippage — and when picking up finished products, the covers protect the surface from accidental fork damage and scratching. They install and remove in seconds without tools, simply attaching magnetically to any flat metal fork surface. Available in multiple sizes to fit forks from 80mm to 120mm wide and 960mm to 2000mm long; manufactured in Leeds by Invicta Forks & Attachments.

More About This Product
The Invicta Magnetic Rubber Fork Cover (Model IMRC) is ideal for use when increased friction is needed between the forks of the forklift truck and the product being lifted, preventing slippage. When picking up finished products, the magnetic covers protect the surface from accidental fork damage and scratching. The covers install and remove in seconds without tools — they simply magnetically attach to any flat metal fork surface. Available in multiple sizes to fit forks from 80mm to 120mm wide and 960mm to 2000mm long. Manufactured in Leeds by Invicta Forks & Attachments.
Suitable Applications
The IMRC is ideal for any operation handling finished, polished or delicate products. Common uses include white goods distribution, furniture handling, appliance warehousing, glass and glazing, automotive parts and electronics — anywhere fork marks would damage the product.
Attachments are chosen by load shape: drums, bulk bags and banded packs each need a different one, and every attachment moves the load centre forward and derates the truck.
How to Use the Magnetic Rubber Fork Cover
- Clean the fork surface to remove debris.
- Place the magnetic cover onto the top face of the fork.
- The magnet will grip securely — adjust positioning if needed.
- Handle loads as normal with increased friction and surface protection.
- Remove by peeling from one end when no longer needed.
Warning:
Ensure the fork surface is clean before fitting. Check covers are secure before each lifting operation.
Safety Information
- Ensure covers are securely attached before lifting.
- Inspect covers regularly for wear and replace as needed.
- Remove covers if handling very heavy rough materials that could damage them.
Inspection and Maintenance
Inspect regularly for wear, cuts and loss of magnetic strength. Replace covers that are damaged or no longer grip securely. Clean fork surfaces before re-fitting.
