With an \u003cstrong\u003eoverall width of 3,010mm\u003c\/strong\u003e, this attachment spans the full width of standard building sheets, roofing panels, and timber bundles — eliminating the concentrated point-load stress that causes bending, cracking, and surface damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e3,010mm Extra-Wide Span — Prevents Bending, Cracking \u0026amp; Damage to Sheet Goods\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 3,010mm span of the fork spreader is specifically dimensioned to support the full width of standard building sheet materials — including \u003cstrong\u003e2,400mm × 1,200mm plasterboard sheets, standard roof sheeting panels, structural timber bundles, and large-format flooring products\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen wide flexible materials are lifted on narrow-spaced standard forks, the unsupported outer edges sag under their own weight, leading to permanent deformation or catastrophic cracking (especially critical with plasterboard and drywall). By placing the fork support points at the outer edges of the load, the F-FS2.5 spreader creates a balanced, full-width support platform that maintains load integrity from pickup through placement, protecting both the product and the operator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTool-Free Slip-On Installation \u0026amp; Safety Chain Security\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is completed in seconds without tools. The \u003cstrong\u003eslip-on design slides directly over the existing forklift tines\u003c\/strong\u003e, positioning the spreader frame across the full 3,010mm width in a single motion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce positioned, the attachment is secured with a \u003cstrong\u003eheavy-duty safety chain\u003c\/strong\u003e that locks the spreader firmly to the host forklift carriage. This prevents lateral movement or accidental disengagement during lifting, travel, and placement operations — a critical safety requirement when handling wide, heavy loads at height or navigating uneven construction site terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEnhanced Load Stability on Uneven Terrain\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wide, flat spreader platform improves load stability during transport by providing a broader base of support. This reduces load rocking and shifting on uneven ground surfaces, dock plates, and rough construction site terrain — conditions where narrow-fork handling of wide flexible loads creates significant product damage and tip-over risks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilding material suppliers\u003c\/strong\u003e — handling 2.4m+ plasterboard, drywall, and MDF sheets without edge sagging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTimber yards\u003c\/strong\u003e — lifting and transporting long, flexible structural timber bundles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRoofing contractors\u003c\/strong\u003e — moving wide metal roof sheeting panels without creasing or bending\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction sites\u003c\/strong\u003e — safe transport of large-format cladding and architectural panels across uneven yard terrain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarge-format warehouses\u003c\/strong\u003e — distribution of oversized palletised goods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3,010mm extra-wide platform — spans standard plasterboard and sheet goods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2,500kg SWL @ 600mm load centre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistributes lifting force to prevent product cracking, sagging, and surface damage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlip-on installation — deploys over standard forks in seconds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafety chain included — positive mechanical interlock to forklift carriage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnamel paint finish — corrosion resistance for outdoor yard environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e160×60mm fork pockets | 775mm pocket centres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e225kg attachment weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSWL (kg)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDimensions W×D×H (mm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFork Pocket (mm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCentres (mm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLoad Centre (mm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight (kg)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eF-FS2.5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2,500\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3,010×1,220×150\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e160×60\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e775\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e600\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e225\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Drawing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0808\/6195\/4293\/files\/DM_20260902143222_003.jpg?v=1788330811\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #ffebee; border-left: 4px solid #e53935; padding: 12px 16px; margin: 16px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e⚠️ Compatibility \u0026amp; Safety Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1. \u003cstrong\u003eLoad De-rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: The attachment weighs 225kg and operates at a 600mm load centre.
