The Vestil H-150-MD Low Profile 1.5 cu yd self-dumping steel hopper provides a compact, forklift-dump system designed for efficient waste and material handling. This medium-duty hopper features a full 90° dump angle and a cushioned bumper stop, enabling quick offloading while protecting the surrounding surface. Its low-profile form facilitates easier loading and positioning under heavy loads, and the unit returns to an upright, locked position once dumped and lowered to the ground.
Construction and standout details center on a robust steel body with a heavy-duty latch mechanism for operator safety and a pull-cable controlled dump from the forklift seat. The model is designed with stackability considerations in mind for compatible sizes within the same family, and a standard push/pull cable length of 4 ft supports reliable operation from the fork truck. With a blue finish, this hopper is sized to accept 1.5 cubic yards of material and is built to integrate into typical material-handling ecosystems that use fork pockets for mobility.
Practical use scenarios include industrial yards, manufacturing floors, and loading areas where a quick, controlled dump is preferable to manual unloading. Operators should secure the provided safety restraint to the forklift before dumping, and ensure the unit is lowered gently to the ground to return to its upright position. For compatibility, the model is defined by its fork pocket dimensions and overall width related to stacking rules within Vestil’s family; specific dimensions like fork pocket center, usable pocket length and width, and front lip clearance provide guidance for insertion and clearance planning in your racking or floor layout.
