Contact’s custom jib range reaches new heights
18 July 2018
CONTACT ATTACHMENTS has introduced its new attachment that transforms its forklifts into adaptable lifting equipment.

The company designs and manufactures an extensive range of forklift jibs from its base in Mid Wales, helping customers to handle long and/or awkward loads through providing additional reach to their existing equipment. The jibs also support users in effectively lifting loads which are unable to be palletised.
Technical sales director at Contact Attachments Dave Manuel said, “Our range of jibs includes fixed length, raised-height and articulating jibs, as well as telescopic jibs for even greater height. Each of our jibs can be supplied as either fork-mounted or carriage-mounted, depending on the precise handling requirements.
“In addition to our standard range, we can also custom-design jibs to a customer’s precise specification if required, and recently produced a 12metre long jib designed to handle 10,000kgs for use within a marine environment.
