PNEUMATIC FORKLIFTS

For palletized materials and conventional-sized goods, reliable internal combustion or electric pneumatic forklifts are essential. Not only are they able to be operated all day, their pneumatic tires allow safe and smooth operation across concrete and asphalt as well as rough terrain and uneven surfaces.

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFTS

Featuring larger pneumatic tires and greater ground clearance than your typical industrial forklift, rough terrain forklifts are able to efficiently move loads across uneven surfaces like gravel, dirt and rock. Also called all terrain forklifts, they’re an ideal material handling solution for construction sites and lumber yards.
