Hand Pallet Trucks - What Size Do I Need? |
|
There are 3 common sizes of hand pallet trucks: -
- UK hand pallet trucks, fit pallets sized 1000 x 1200 (40" x 48"). These pallets are commonly known as blue GKN Chep pallets. The hand pallet trucks overall width from the outside of one fork to the outside of the other is 680mm (27") approx. The standard length is 1000mm (40"), however other lengths are also available.
- Euro sized hand pallet trucks, fit a standard Euro pallet (800mm x 1200mm). The hand pallet trucks overall width from the outside of one fork to the outside of the other is 540mm approx. The standard length is 1000mm (40"), however other lengths are also available. If you are using a mixture of standard and Euro pallets, then choose Euro sized hand pallet trucks as they will lift both types.
- The “Printers Truck“. Printing hand pallet trucks are mainly used in the printing industry and the truck’s overall width from the outside of one fork to the outside of the other is 450mm (17") approx. The standard length is 1000mm (40"), however other lengths are also available.
If your pallet size falls outside of the above categories, please see our special size hand pallet trucks for details of trucks with alternative fork lengths. |
