5 Ton Forklift

The 5-ton diesel forklift is a high-performance industrial vehicle designed for medium and large-scale heavy-load handling scenarios. With a rated load of 5 tons, it serves as a core equipment in logistics warehousing, manufacturing, ports, and docks for handling bulk goods (such as steel, building materials, mechanical equipment, etc.). It uses a diesel engine as the power source, which releases high energy through diesel combustion to drive the hydraulic system and transmission system, achieving strong power output and stable operation.

Key advantages are highlighted in four aspects:

First, exceptional heavy-load capacity—its standard 5-ton load (expandable to 6-7 tons in custom versions) features reinforced masts, forks, and frames to handle large-volume, high-density cargo like heavy pallets, steel coils, and containers. It achieves a maximum lifting height of 3-6 meters, meeting high-rack storage needs.

Second, powerful performance—the diesel engine delivers high torque and strong burst power, with a climbing ability of ≥20° (up to 30° in some models). It maintains stability even on wet, uneven surfaces or under full load, making it suitable for complex outdoor terrains (e.g., construction sites or mines).

Third, long operational endurance—diesel’s high energy density allows a single refuel (tank capacity: 100-150L) to sustain 8-12 hours of continuous work (handling over 300 tons daily), eliminating frequent refueling and excelling in high-intensity, round-the-clock operations (e.g., port shifts).

Fourth, reliability—core components (engine, hydraulic pump) undergo long-term technical validation, offering heat resistance, wear resilience, and extended maintenance intervals (every 200-300 hours). Its mature spare parts supply chain ensures quick repairs.

Typical applications

include port container handling (with lifting attachments), heavy steel/masonry transport in steel mills or building material markets, bulk cargo stacking in large logistics hubs, and raw/finished goods movement in manufacturing plants. While its exhaust emissions (e.g., nitrogen oxides) and noise levels (~85-95 dB) exceed those of electric forklifts, it remains an irreplaceable tool for heavy-load, long-distance, and continuous outdoor operations—truly the "heavy-duty backbone" of heavy industries and logistics.
