Product Overview
The Vestil LM-1T-8-24-HBE-DC DC-Powered Hydraulic Telescoping Forklift Boom converts a compatible fork truck into a versatile overhead lifting solution for demanding industrial material-handling applications. Its 12V DC-powered telescoping design allows the operator to extend or retract the boom using a handheld control, reducing the manual effort required to adjust boom length. The heavy-duty steel boom features 24” fork pocket centers, includes two lifting hooks, and provides load capacities that vary according to hook position and boom extension.
