Pallet Trucks are a Type of Pallet Equipment

BeaconTechnology.com Tip: Pallet equipment includes something called the full featured pallet truck. This means the truck is equipped with two steering wheels in the rear where the handle/steering mechanism is located, plus two rollers in the front to assist with loading.

This particular type of pallet equipment is most helpful as it comes in models rated for as much as six thousand pounds. Some models come with steel wheels and others with nylon; check the product specs if you need one particular type over another. The rollers in the front are particularly helpful as they can ease the loading process for heavy pallets.

If you need pallet trucks for corrosive or sanity situations, you may wish to ask the manufacturer for a full featured pallet truck in a zinc, galvanized, or chrome plated model.
