Pallet Impact Protection
Broce Manufacturing has introduced the Pallet Saver, a forklift attachment designed to reduce impact forces during pallet engagement, lowering pallet damage, repair frequency, and replacement costs in manufacturing, warehouse and material handling operations.
A replaceable rubber impact pad aligns with a pallet's center strut to absorb and redistribute impact forces away from weaker deck boards and into the pallet's stronger center structure, helping prevent breakage and structural failure. The attachment is constructed from ½ in (12.7 mm) heavy-duty welded steel and mounts to ITA Class II or Class III carriages without requiring any change in operator behavior. Four models are available in single or double-pad configurations.
Reducing pallet breakage also limits loose boards and debris on the floor, reducing trip hazards and minimizing downtime from manually transferring loads off damaged pallets.
