Choosing the Right Tynes
1. Match ITA Class – Forks must match your forklift's carriage class (Class II for 16" carriage, Class III for 20", Class IV for 25"). [9†L22-L23][8†L4]
2. Verify Dimensions – Measure thickness, width, and length. Common Class II forks are 1.75" × 4" × 42". [9†L20-L22]
3. Check Capacity – Ensure fork capacity meets or exceeds your heaviest loads. Atlas 5,000 lb forks [9†L12-L13], Horst 4,200 lb [8†L4], Class 2 tynes from 1,900–3,000 kg. [11†L10-L37]
4. Inspect Used Forks – Check for heel wear exceeding 10% of original thickness, cracks, bends, or twisted shanks. Replace damaged forks immediately.

Always match ITA class, verify dimensions, and inspect used forks for wear before purchasing.
