TOUGH: Made of High Strength Steel

EXCELLENT VISIBILITY: The see through carriage allows the operator the best visibility possible, enhancing the operational safety of your machine.

SOLID STEEL HIGH STRENGTH BLADES: Standard blades are Forged steel which provide 30% greater strength durability than T-1. (T-1 available as option) specifications:
>Thickness: 3" 
>Width: 6" 
>Useable Length: 72" from the vehicle face of the carriage to the tip
>Taper: 40" std, 12" optional

6' LONG BLADES: Blade length ample to pick up cars from the side, but not too long that will hit the back side of auto crushing equipment, to prevent damage to it..

60" OUTSIDE WIDTH: The forks at the widest outside point, at the carriage, prior to the edge taper beginning, is 60" (outside to outside). 

BACK HEADACHE RACK: 29" Standard. Optional extensions to 39", 45", 51", 57" and others by special order. For safety, always select a back height that will provide support to the tallest load to be carried. A proper height headache rack back will prevent loads from tipping back onto the loader cylinders and cab.

PLOW BLADE: Center plow blade is an option and is a custom request.  Style # 5 Heavy Duty SAS Crushing Forks come with a plow installed to helps to move unwanted materials that may be on the ground when placing a vehicle in your lot.

CUSTOM BLADE SPECIFICATIONS AVAILABLE: Heavy Duty SAS Crushing Forks can be built to your specification of fork length.  Tapers are available in 12" or 40".  Width is available 6" or 8".

BLADE STRESS POINT ELIMINATED: A common failure point in fork blades on other manufacturer's forks is the point where the fork blade is welded directly across the top face of the fork.  This creates immediate problems; the heat from welding at the top of the fork weakens the the original make up of the steel and also removes the flexibility of the upper portion of the steel on the blade, and further concentrates the stress of the load, directly on that point of the weld, not providing any smooth transition of the stress from the weight load.  Heavy Duty SAS Crushing Forks™ are assembled with a unique method of welding the blades into the carriage, whereby it provides a transition of the stress from the load to several areas of the blades.

SKID / WEAR PLATE: Skid plates under the carriage are included.
