The 4.5 Tonne Telescopic Long Jib: Versatile and Robust Lifting Solution

In any industrial environment where heavy lifting is a daily necessity, having the right equipment is essential. The 4.5 Tonne Telescopic Long Jib is a powerful and flexible lifting attachment designed to expand the capabilities of forklifts, enabling them to handle large and awkward loads efficiently. Whether you're working in construction, logistics, or manufacturing, this telescopic jib is built to offer both reliability and safety, making it a valuable addition to your material handling operations.

Maximising Reach for Challenging Lifting Tasks

One of the standout features of the 4.5 Tonne Telescopic Long Jib is its impressive extended reach. When fully extended, this jib offers a 3.5-metre length, providing ample distance for lifting and positioning heavy loads in areas that would otherwise be difficult to access. This long reach is especially beneficial when you need to lift materials to height or across obstacles without compromising on the stability of the load.

The extended jib length is ideal for lifting tasks in wide open spaces, such as construction sites, warehouses with high shelving, or factories with large machinery that need to be moved. With six adjustable jib positions, operators can select the most suitable configuration for their task, whether they need a higher or lower reach, allowing for quick adaptation to different lifting conditions.

Safe and Efficient Lifting

Safety is paramount when handling heavy loads, and the 4.5 Tonne Telescopic Long Jib has been designed to ensure stability and security during lifting operations. With a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 4500kg, the jib can lift a wide variety of heavy materials, including steel beams, construction materials, and machinery, making it perfect for industries that demand heavy-duty lifting.

The Load Centre of 870mm and the Hook Centre of Gravity (HGC) of 836mm are strategically positioned to enhance the jib’s performance, ensuring optimal balance and load stability. These measurements ensure that even when lifting at extended lengths, the load remains balanced and secure, reducing the risk of tipping or load instability, which is crucial for safety in high-lift operations.

Durability and Corrosion Resistance

Durability is another key aspect of the 4.5 Tonne Telescopic Long Jib. The zinc-plated finish provides excellent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for use in a variety of environments, including those with high humidity, exposure to chemicals, or frequent outdoor use. This coating helps protect the jib from rust and wear, ensuring it remains in top condition over time, even with regular heavy-duty usage.

The robust construction and high-quality finish ensure the Telescopic Long Jib can withstand the demanding conditions typical of industrial and construction environments, offering long-lasting performance. The zinc plating also enhances the jib's aesthetic appeal, giving it a polished and professional look that reflects the durability and strength it offers.

Easy to Use and Install

The 4.5 Tonne Telescopic Long Jib is designed for easy attachment to forklifts. It is compatible with most standard forklift models, thanks to its fork pocket size of 185x65mm and pocket centre distance of 290mm. Installing the jib onto the forklift is straightforward, allowing operators to quickly and efficiently set it up without unnecessary delays.

Once installed, the jib can be adjusted to the required position using the six available settings. This level of adjustability is ideal for optimising lifting height, reach, and angle depending on the job at hand. It gives operators the flexibility to perform various tasks without needing to switch out equipment, which boosts productivity and reduces downtime.

Applications Across Various Industries

The 4.5 Tonne Telescopic Long Jib is a versatile piece of equipment that can be used across a wide range of industries, including:

• Construction: Moving heavy beams, machinery, and building materials to elevated locations.

• Warehousing and Logistics: Assisting with the handling of large pallets and goods stored on high shelves.

• Manufacturing: Transporting large parts and equipment around factories, particularly in areas where reach is crucial.

• Mining and Engineering: Lifting large or awkwardly shaped materials, including equipment and machinery, in tight or remote locations.

The jib’s ability to extend to 3.5 metres provides the flexibility to lift materials high or over obstacles, making it an indispensable tool for any business that requires heavy lifting at height.
