Rough Terrain Pallet Truck

  • High-Clearance Pneumatic Tires: Features 510mm (20.1 in) front wheels to minimize rolling resistance on gravel, dirt, and construction debris.
  • Adjustable Load Geometry: Fork width adjusts between 240-680mm (9.4-26.8 in) to accommodate non-standard pallets and skids.
  • Heavy-Duty Tubular Chassis: A 212kg (467 lbs) net weight structure ensures torsional rigidity when handling full 1,250kg (2,755 lbs) loads.

The HPW Series Rough Terrain Pallet Truck is engineered specifically for outdoor material handling applications where standard warehouse jacks are inoperable, such as construction sites, garden centers, and aggregate yards. Unlike solid-wheel equipment, this unit utilizes oversized Φ510mm (20.1 in) pneumatic front tires and Φ250mm (9.8 in) rear steering wheels to traverse uneven topography without sinking or destabilizing. The chassis is constructed from reinforced tubular steel, providing a static load capacity of 1,250kg (2,755 lbs). With a lowered fork height of just 65mm (2.6 in) and a maximum lift height of 200mm (7.9 in), this truck offers the ground clearance necessary to navigate ramps and ground obstacles while maintaining compatibility with low-clearance disposable pallets.

Performance

All-Terrain Pneumatic Mobility System

Standard pallet trucks utilize small polyurethane wheels that instantly bog down on soft or uneven surfaces. The HPW model overcomes this via its large-diameter wheel configuration. The front axle is equipped with 510mm x 120mm (20.1 x 4.7 in) pneumatic tires, while the rear utilizes 250mm x 80mm (9.8 x 3.1 in) steering wheels. This specific diameter-to-width ratio significantly increases the surface area contact, reducing ground pressure (psi) and allowing the operator to manually maneuver 1.25-tonne loads over gravel, dirt, and cracked asphalt with manageable push/pull force.

Torsion-Resistant Tubular Architecture

Durability in rough terrain applications requires resistance to chassis twisting (torsion) caused by uneven ground contact points. The HPW features a welded tubular steel frame rather than the standard C-channel bent steel found in indoor jacks. This construction contributes to the unit’s substantial 212kg (467 lbs) net weight, acting as a counterbalance and ensuring structural integrity. The frame is engineered to withstand dynamic shock loads typical of outdoor environments without compromising the 1,250kg (2,755 lbs) Working Load Limit (WLL).

Adaptive Load Handling & Hydraulics

To support diverse supply chain requirements, the HPW eliminates the constraints of fixed-width forks. The straddle design allows for an adjustable overall fork width ranging from 240mm to 680mm (9.4 to 26.8 in), enabling the secure handling of both narrow specialized skids and standard stringer pallets. The integrated hydraulic pump features a 3-position control handle (Lift, Lower, Neutral), delivering a 200mm (7.9 in) lift stroke. This extended lift range is critical for “breaking back” the load to ensure safe ground clearance when traversing inclines or debris-scattered worksites.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the three main types of pallet handling trucks?

The three main types of pallet handling trucks are manual pallet jacks, electric pallet jacks, and pallet stackers.
Manual pallet jacks are hand-operated and used for short-distance transport.
Electric pallet jacks use battery power for easier movement of heavier loads.
Pallet stackers are designed to lift and stack pallets vertically at higher heights.
