Overview
The AP01A00-00A-PA slides onto forklift tines and works three ways: straight fork beam, telescopic spreader bar, or adjustable lift beam. It is rated by position, not by one number. Capacity is 8,000 lb at the 8 ft length and steps down to 5,000 lb at the full 12 ft extension, with the spread adjusting in 6 in increments between.
Every unit is proof tested to 125% of its WLL and certified, designed and built to meet or exceed ASME B30.20 and BTH-1, Design Category A, Service Class 0, under Tandemloc specification EAD21000A. Total weight is 468 lb, 423 lb for the beam alone. The finish is sandblast, prime, and safety yellow paint for visibility on a jobsite.
Tandemloc fabricates the beam in Havelock, North Carolina, and will quote other capacities and sizes; underwater service needs special consideration per Tandemloc. Confirm your tine dimensions and rigging when you request the quote. The beam ships by freight; pricing is quote-based, lead time is confirmed at quote, and business leasing is available.
