Counterbalance Forklift Trucks

Here at Permatt we stock a vast selection of different brands and models of Forklift Trucks. From CAT, Konecranes, Carer and Combilift. We find that the Counterbalance Forklift Truck is one of our most popular pieces of equipment, and it is usually one of the first models that springs to mind when you think about a forklift truck. 

On the Counterbalance model, the forks are placed at the front of the forklift truck meaning that the truck can get direct access to the area that loading or storing is needed. It is an excellent piece of material handling equipment with maximum, time-efficient functionality that requires no reach and a driver cab for the operator to sit comfortably in. The machine has a counterweight in the rear of the vehicle to balance the weight being lifted at the front – which is where it gets the name Counterbalance. They can be used both indoors and outdoors and are best operated on smooth, flat surfaces.
