Is This Right For You?

✅ Buy if…

You lift pallets, bags, small bundles, or materials up to 4,000 lbs regularly
Your machine is mid-frame (S450–S570 class) and typical loads are within standard-duty capacity

⛔ Skip if…

You regularly lift heavy or awkward loads over 5,000 lbs — standard-duty tines can bend under shock loads
Bin moves, heavy concrete, or steel pipe are common — heavy-duty tines are worth the cost

🔍 Also consider…

Heavy-duty pallet forks if your load weights push the limit of the frame rating
Fork frame carriage upgrade if you want a higher ITA carriage class for more lift capacity

🔧 Machine Compatibility

Compatible with all skid steer brands via universal SSQA quick attach. No auxiliary hydraulics required — operates off the loader arms.
