Carton Clamps For Sale

Carton clamps are carriage mounted attachments with very large platens that allow forklifts to lift non-palleted containers, such as appliances and boxed goods by simply squeezing the load between the platens. They come in a variety of capacities and sizes to carefully lift almost any type of load. Carton clamps and virtually all attachments require the forklift to have 3rd and 4th valve functions to manage the flow of hydraulic fluid for clamping and shifting the loads. Most forklifts are only equipment with two function valves to lift/lower the mast and tilt it forward/backwards. The two additional valves are required to squeeze the platens and/or shift the platens side to side to better position the load.
