The Vestil FE-5-96 Fork Extension is a heavy-duty pair designed to extend the reach of standard forks, enabling safe handling of long or bulky loads that can’t be reached with the truck’s forks alone. Built from steel with welded cast tips, these extensions add substantial reach while maintaining the structural integrity needed for industrial material handling. A steel retaining strap helps prevent the extensions from sliding off forks during use, and a powder-coated safety yellow finish provides visibility and durability in demanding work environments.
Each extension incorporates warning and operating stickers to support worker safety and proper handling procedures. The 96-inch usable length paired with a 5-inch inside width accommodates longer loads while remaining compatible with common fork configurations. The assemblies feature a 5/16-inch steel thickness, a 2-inch inside height, and a loop-style mount to mate with the forklift forks. Designed to be installed by inserting the loop at the tip, sliding in at a 45-degree angle, and laying the extension down over the existing fork, these extensions meet standard pallet-jack and fork-truck practices for length extension within regulatory guidelines that reference maximum extension relative to fork length. Practically, they enable safer lifting and placement of long items such as pipes, lumber, or composite decking where standard forks fall short.
Users should verify compatibility with their specific forklift forks, noting the usable fork extension inside width (5 to 5.5 inches) and overall pair capacity of 4,000 pounds per pair. This product ships as a pair and is intended for long-term, repeatable use in material-handling workflows, with the color and construction chosen to withstand industrial environments and enhance visibility during operation.
