Pallet truck 5500 lb capacity from Northern Safety is a manual material handling truck that moves palletized loads across shop and warehouse floors. The 5500 lb capacity lets crews handle heavy stacked product in fewer trips, which supports efficient workflow in busy material handling areas. The truck measures 21-1/2 in wide by 45 in long, so it fits standard pallet footprints while still maneuvering between rack rows and workstations. A lowered fork height of 3 in slides under most pallet openings, and the 7-3/4 in raised height lifts loads clear of the floor for travel. Each fork is 6 in wide, giving stable support under pallet runners so loads stay steady as the truck is moved.
The pallet truck has a lowered fork height of 3 in, which lets the forks enter low pallet openings before lift is applied. The raised height of 7-3/4 in lifts pallets high enough to clear floor irregularities during travel. Each fork is 6 in wide, so the truck supports pallet stringers over a broader surface, which helps distribute weight when moving near the 5500 lb rating. Overall fork length of 45 in gives coverage under most standard pallets, which helps keep loads balanced from front to back while the truck is pushed or pulled.
This Northern Safety pallet truck fits material handling needs in shops and warehouses that move palletized loads between storage and work cells. The 21-1/2 in overall width allows the truck to travel in typical aisle spacing while still engaging pallet openings. Forks measuring 45 in long support full-length pallets during transfer, so loads can move directly from dock or storage locations into production or assembly areas. Polyurethane wheels support travel on common hard shop floors, so operators can route material through receiving, staging, and work zones using the same truck. With a 5500 lb capacity, the truck serves mixed material loads where heavier items share the same pallet, which supports consolidated handling through the facility.
The safety bypass valve helps protect against overload by relieving pressure beyond the intended capacity, which supports consistent hydraulic performance during repeated lifting. Chrome piston and ram provide a smooth stroke, which helps operators raise and lower loads in a controlled way during precise pallet placement. The chrome finish also helps reduce excessive wear on the pump and seal, which supports long-term use in busy material handling schedules. Entry and exit rollers at the fork tips assist the truck as it moves into and out of pallet openings, so the forks transition under pallet runners with less resistance. The lowered height of 3 in and raised height of 7-3/4 in repeat the same lift range on every cycle, which supports predictable clearance when positioning loads near racking or equipment. Manufacturing in an ISO 9002 registered facility reflects a controlled production process for this pallet truck, which supports consistent dimensions and operation from unit to unit in a fleet.
This pallet truck has a 5500 lb capacity, which lets crews move heavy palletized loads on a single truck, supporting efficient handling of dense or combined materials.
The pallet truck has 6 in wide forks that are 45 in long, so it supports standard pallet footprints while helping keep loads stable along the full fork length.
The forks lower to 3 in and raise to 7-3/4 in, allowing entry into low pallet openings and lifting pallets high enough to clear floors during movement.
This pallet truck uses polyurethane wheels, which carry the rated load while rolling across typical shop and warehouse floors in material handling areas.
The safety bypass valve helps protect against overload by redirecting hydraulic pressure above design levels, which supports the integrity of the lifting system.
The chrome piston and ram offer smooth operation and help prevent excessive wear on the pump and seal, supporting consistent lifting over repeated cycles.
The Northern Safety pallet truck 5500 lb capacity combines a 21-1/2 in by 45 in fork layout with polyurethane wheels for moving palletized loads through shop and warehouse spaces. The 3 in to 7-3/4 in lift range, 6 in wide forks, and safety bypass valve support controlled handling of heavy pallets. Chrome piston and ram construction, along with manufacture in an ISO 9002 registered facility, support consistent operation for material handling tasks that repeat every shift.
