Fit & capacity

These forks hang on an ITA Class 4 carriage. Lower the mast and measure from the top of the upper carriage bar to the bottom of the lower bar: it should read 25".

Capacity per pair by load center
24" load center (rated) 16,800 lb per pair
36" load center 11,200 lb per pair
48" load center 8,400 lb per pair

The 36" and 48" figures are estimates (capacity × 24 ÷ load center). Your truck's data plate always governs.

Product details

48" x 8" x 2" Class 4 Full Taper & Polish Forklift Forks (Pair)

An 8" wide, 2" thick full taper blade in a four-foot length — the Class 4 fork for sheet steel, plate, and heavy plywood units that get picked up flat off the floor. The width spreads 16,800 lb across enough surface to keep a stack from bowing, and the polished, heel-to-tip taper gets under the bottom sheet without a pry bar.

Forty-eight inches suits 4x8 sheet units picked from the long side and standard pallets of plate or bagged product. It's the length to choose when your Class 4 truck works in racking or trailers where a 60" or 72" blade won't clear. For full lumber units and 8-foot-plus packs, the same section comes in 60" and 72".

At 2" thick this is the heavier of the two wide Class 4 FTP sections (the 10" x 1.75" rates 18,200 lb, the 12" x 1.5" rates 16,200 lb). Pick the 8" x 2" when the load is dense and narrow — steel rather than wood. Capacity is at a 24" load center; use the forklift fork capacity chart for longer load centers.
