Our Counterbalance Forklift Trucks for Sale

A counterbalanced lift truck, like any other forklift, has two forks in the front for lifting and moving pallets. What makes it different is the counterweight, which balances out the front load weight with the weight of either a battery or iron in the back. Because of this design, these machines don't need protruding legs for balance.

You can use an industrial counterbalance forklift truck in applications like:

  • Warehouses
  • Docks
  • Constructions
  • Distribution centers

Benefits of a Counterbalance Forklift Truck

One of the most popular forklift types in use today is the counterbalanced lift truck. A forklift truck with a counterbalance offers many advantages, such as:

  • Versatility: A forklift can be useful in many kinds of material handling, so your counterbalance forklift is a machine you can use for any task.
  • Stability: Because of the weight in the back, the forklift will stay stable whether it has a load on its forks or not.
  • Maneuverability: Counterbalanced forklifts have a smaller chassis, which gives them a smaller turning radius.
  • No emissions: The counterbalance forklift will produce no emissions while running, which is ideal for indoor work areas and eco-friendly operations.
  • Less maintenance: Electric counterbalance forklifts have fewer components and generate no waste, resulting in less maintenance for you.
  • Less noise: Because the rechargeable battery is quiet during operation, your workplace will have less noise, leading to a more comfortable environment and enhanced safety conditions.
  • Cost savings: Charging your electric counterbalanced forklifts cost less than buying fuel for IC engine models.
