Vestil FE-P Cast-Tip Pin Style Fork Extensions — 4,000 lb Per Pair, Cast Steel Tips
Vestil Pin Style Fork Extensions (FE-P) provide the extra support needed to lift long or large objects with a fork truck. This cast-tip range — fork widths 4", 5", and 6" — features cast steel tips on a welded steel body, with a baked-in powder-coat yellow finish for lasting durability. Pin retention makes them quick to install and remove, and each extension includes warning and operating stickers for worker safety. Maximum capacity 4,000 lb, evenly distributed per pair.
Why It's Different: Unlike loop-only extensions, the FE-P secures with a pin behind the heel of the fork — remove the pin, lay the extension over the fork (or drive the truck into it), then re-insert the pin to lock it in place. The 4/5/6" widths use cast steel tips for clean entry under loads.
Best For: Warehouses and manufacturing handling lumber, pipe, panels, drywall, carpet, and other long or oversized loads where standard forks can't reach. Choose the width to match your forks and the length for your load.
⚠️ For use with Class 2 and Class 3 forks ONLY. Confirm your fork class before ordering.
⚠️ OSHA 150% rule: fork extensions must not exceed 150% of the existing fork length (e.g., 48" forks → 72" maximum extension). With lengths up to 120" offered, confirm your existing fork length before selecting.
⚠️ Fork width must match your existing forks — available in 4", 5", and 6".
⚠️ 4,000 lb capacity is the maximum per PAIR, evenly distributed. A single extension ("Sold As: Each") is intended for pair use or as a replacement and is not individually rated at 4,000 lb. Buying a pair also costs less than two singles.
⚠️ Pin retention: the pin must be re-inserted behind the fork heel to secure the extension.
⚠️ Long versions (108"/120") are heavy and oversized — two-person handling and freight shipping.
