Finding the Right Forklift Jib Attachment

Choosing the right forklift jib attachment depends on your site and what you need to lift. Start by considering:

• Load capacity – Make sure both the forklift and jib are rated to a safe lifting capacity to handle the weight
• Reach requirements – We offer both a short and long style jib, both with adjustable extension positions for flexible tasks.
• Load type – Forklift jibs are ideal for items that are suspended, oversized or awkward to stack
• Frequency of use – If lifting is a regular part of the job, a heavier-duty model may be more suitable

If you’re not sure which option is right, our team is here to help with honest advice and practical recommendations.
