It is a pallet fork attachment for skid steer loaders and excavators that converts the carrier into a forklift-style handler for loading, unloading and moving palletized and irregular loads across a variety of terrains and work sites.
The RAY pallet fork series is designed for many skid steer loaders and excavators. Excavator-mounted versions can be fitted to carriers from about 1 to 40 tons; specific skid-steer models include the RPF-12 and RPF-15. Compatibility depends on the carrier's quick coupler or pin dimensions—confirm model fit with the manufacturer or supplier.
Skid-steer models shown: RPF-12 is rated at 3,000 kg and RPF-15 is rated at 5,000 kg. Choose the model that matches your machine's lift capacity and stability limits.
RPF-12: fork length 1,200 mm, overall length 1,300 mm, width 1,100 mm, height 900 mm, weight ~320 kg. RPF-15: fork length 1,500 mm, overall length 1,600 mm, width 1,200 mm, height 900 mm, weight ~350 kg.
Excavator-mounted models are offered in a range of capacities depending on carrier size and model; sample models in the range have maximum loading weights from roughly 1,100 kg up to about 6,750 kg. Exact capacities depend on the selected model and the excavator's rated lift—confirm with supplier.
Mounting method depends on the carrier: skid-steer versions use the machine's quick-attach plate or custom brackets; excavator versions are fitted to the excavator boom via pinned brackets or quick couplers. Proper pin sizes and coupler compatibility must be checked and secured per manufacturer instructions.
Basic pallet fork tines are mechanical and do not require hydraulics. If you order options such as hydraulic clamp, rotation or side-shift, those features will require hydraulic lines and control valves—confirm required hydraulic flow/pressure when ordering.
Yes. The manufacturer can provide forks with special specifications on request (different fork lengths, carriage widths, load ratings, mounting brackets, hydraulic options and special coatings). Provide machine make/model and intended use when requesting customization.
They are widely used in warehousing, paper, packaging, printing, tobacco, household appliances, beverage and wine, textiles, ports, railways, auto manufacturing, steel, chemical and construction industries for pallet handling, lifting, pushing, pulling, clamping and rotating loads.
Always confirm the fork and machine rated capacity, secure loads properly, keep loads low while traveling, avoid sudden turns or slopes with elevated loads, ensure forks are fully engaged under the load, inspect mounting pins and welds before use, and follow the machine manufacturer's safety guidelines.
Inspect forks, carriage and welds regularly for cracks or deformation, check and grease pivot points and pins, tighten mounting hardware, remove debris from the carriage, and replace worn or bent tines. Address any damage promptly to avoid safety and load issues.
Forks and carriage are manufactured from high-strength steel with welded construction; tines are typically heat-treated or reinforced to resist bending and wear. Surface treatments (paint or corrosion-resistant coatings) may be applied depending on options.
Yes. Common spare parts include replacement tines, carriage components, pins and mounting brackets. Contact the supplier or manufacturer for part numbers, availability and service support.
Lead times depend on model and customization—typically consult the supplier for current delivery estimates (commonly a few weeks). Shipping and packaging options vary by destination. Warranty and certifications (CE/ISO or others) depend on the manufacturer and can be confirmed at time of purchase.
