The Vestil H-150-HD Low Profile Heavy-Duty Self-Dumping Steel Hopper is designed to move and dump bulky loads with the simplicity of a fork truck. Its 90° dump angle provides a full, controlled emptying action, and the low-profile form factor facilitates loading and positioning in tight spaces. After dumping, the unit returns to an upright, locked position, ready for another cycle, with a heavy-duty latch mechanism that supports worker safety during operation. A cushioned rubber bumper stop helps minimize impact as the hopper returns to the loaded orientation, contributing to durable performance in frequent dumping applications.
Constructed from steel with an 8-gauge‑ thick body, the hopper accommodates up to 1.5 cubic yards (1-1/2 cu yd) and a stated usable capacity of 6,000 lb. The manual pull-cable dump is operated from the seat of the fork truck, with a pull cable length of 4 ft, enabling controlled dumping without leaving the vehicle. The design prioritizes practical loading height and handling efficiency, helping to streamline workflows in material transfer, waste management, and similar bulk-material tasks. The unit’s front lip, base thickness, and fork-pocket geometry are specified to guide compatibility with standard fork trucks and pallet handling setups.
Compatibility and handling notes: the low-profile design is intended for forklift-assisted dumping and stacking logic; models in the H-series are designed to stack with specific counterparts, and proper stacking limits should be observed. The package is listed as per‑unit, and specific dimensions such as fork-pocket center (21-5/8 in), usable pocket length (22 in), width (7 in), and pocket height (2 in) inform fork-truck fitment and alignment. When planning use, verify that your fork truck’s dimensions and lifting capacity align with the hopper’s US customary specifications and that the safety restraint is secured before dumping operations.
