Fork Extensions Crepa-22

The document discusses fork extensions made by VETTER for lifting long loads. It describes the open and closed welded structures of the extensions and their compliance with ISO 13284 standards. The extensions must support at least 60% of their length by the existing forks and are rated to their capacity. Locking bolts prevent slipping and the extensions undergo testing including 1 million stress cycles at 25% overload. Advantages of the VETTER extensions include their solid welded box design for stability, tight tolerances to fit forks precisely, and tapered tips for easy loading. Ordering requires specifying the extension and fork details.

Open version

Closed version

Welded structure with an open


lower side

Welded and extra solid box


design with a closed lower side

Solid and cost-effective solution


for the transport of loads which
are distributed over the whole
length of the extension

Designed to lift also loads which


have their centre of gravity
outside the length of the basic
fork

Demands of ISO 13284

The existing fork must support at least 60 % of the fork extension length.
Otherwise,, technical clearance is necesssary.
y
LGV(max) = LGZ / 0,6

The rated capacity of the fork extension


n is designed to suit the particular fork,
the rated capacity and load centre of th
he lift truck needs to be checked
separately.

Demands of ISO 13284


Please observe:
Fork extensions need to be equipped with
w locking bolts to prevent slipping
o
off.
These looking bolts have to stand 50 % of the defined test load, i.e. sufficient
stabilityy is necessary.

Demands of ISO 13284


Further demands:
Minimum tolerance between fork exte
ension and the particular fork is 10mm,
maximum 10 % p
play
y are allowed.
Fork extension has to comply with all demands of ISO 2330, i.e.

Endurance tested
Minimum 1,000,000
