Description

12FMB – Forklift Boom

The AG-GO 12FMB Forklift Boom is a heavy-duty, fork-mounted lifting attachment designed to expand the reach and versatility of standard forklifts and loader fork setups. Built for industrial, agricultural, and construction environments, this adjustable boom allows operators to lift and position suspended or hard-to-reach loads that cannot be handled with pallet forks alone. It provides extended reach capability without requiring permanent equipment modification.

Constructed from high-strength structural steel, the 12FMB is engineered for controlled lifting applications where stability and rated positioning are critical. Its 12-foot overall length increases forward reach while maintaining consistent load capacity across adjustable positions. This makes it well suited for lifting trusses, machinery, pipe, equipment, and other materials requiring overhead or extended placement.

Adjustable Reach and Load Control

The 12FMB features six boom positions spaced at 24-inch intervals, allowing operators to adjust reach based on jobsite requirements. Each position is rated at 1,000 pounds, providing predictable working load capacity throughout the extension range. This consistent rating simplifies safe lift planning and helps maintain proper load management procedures.

A spring-loaded locking pin secures the boom at each selected position. The locking mechanism prevents unintended movement during lifting and positioning operations, improving stability and maintaining alignment under load.

The extended design enables precise placement of suspended materials in areas that would otherwise require cranes or additional specialized equipment.

Fork-Mounted Installation and Safety Features

The fork-mounted configuration allows the boom to slide directly onto standard forklift forks for fast, tool-free installation. This design minimizes downtime and allows operators to convert from pallet handling to boom lifting applications quickly.

An integrated safety chain is included to secure the boom to the forklift carriage or attachment frame. This prevents forward shifting during operation and reinforces safe lifting practices when handling suspended loads.

Because the attachment does not require welding or permanent mounting, it provides flexible use across multiple compatible machines within a fleet.

Durable Construction and Application Versatility

Manufactured for demanding environments, the 12FMB is suitable for use on farms, construction sites, warehouses, and industrial facilities. Its structural steel frame is built to withstand repetitive lifting tasks while maintaining dimensional stability and consistent engagement with forklift forks.

The boom’s extended reach improves access for lifting roof trusses, setting equipment, positioning pipe, and handling materials in confined or elevated spaces. By expanding the functional range of standard forklifts, the 12FMB enhances equipment versatility while maintaining controlled, rated lifting performance.
