4. Wheel material configuration. Generally, the wheel material can be divided into polyurethane and nylon. This needs to be used according to the different selection of the site. The ground and mine are better, and the ground is relatively smooth. Polyurethane wheels can be used to save effort. If the ground is not very good, and the road is concrete or asphalt, or even worse, use nylon wheels, which are light to pull up, and they are flexible and have a certain degree of wear resistance. Besides, ordinary hydraulic vehicles are not made of the above two wheel materials. There are other configuration materials, such as polyurethane coated nylon, aluminum alloy coated plastic, bakelite wheels and so on.
5. Fork steel plate material thickness. Generally, a better standard 3.0-ton manual pallet truck uses a 4mm thick steel plate, while some of the poorer steel plate thickness plus paint thickness can’t reach 4mm, or only 3.5mm. Some even can only reach 3mm, which is the standard of a 2-ton manual pallet truck, so purchasers must pay attention to this matter to prevent manufacturers from cutting corners in exchange for the price advantage, which is also very irresponsible to consumers. Such a truck is also very prone to failure in subsequent use. And there will be problems in future after-sales service.
6. Deadweight tonnage. Generally speaking, the national standard manual pallet truck has four kinds of deadweight: 2.0t-2.5t-3.0t-5.0t. However, according to the segmentation of market demand, the manual hydraulic pallet trucks manufactured by some manufacturers also have six types of loading capacity: 1.5T, 2.0T, 2.5T, 3.0T, 4.0T, and 5.0T, which gives the market more choices. It also covers the operation requirements of low, medium and high tonnage. Customers can solve their own use problems according to their actual needs.
I hope that the factor analysis of the manual pallet trucks in the above 6 can help you when choosing pallet truck products
