IMPORTANT: The different forks and features shown in this

catalog are informative only and are displayed as examples
of some of the many features we can provide. The adding or
removing of any of these features to an existing fork(s) can
only be done by Cascade or an approved vendor.

When there are requirements for new features, Cascade Fork Engineering needs to
be consulted to ensure that any additional work applied to the existing fork will not

BLOCK FORKS
Block Forks are used for lifting concrete or cement blocks in large numbers. They can be ordered in
sets as required depending on the load-width, configuration and weight.

Block Saver Hook

Block Saver Shaft

Optional Block Saver Heels

Features:
 The forged heel is enlarged (bent and upset manufacturing process) for maximum strength.
 The inside heel area can be ordered with an optional special "concave type" radius that will reduce damage to
the edges of the product.
 Some applications may require our optional elongated tube (floating eye) so that when the load is being set down
on an uneven surface, the forks first being relieved of the load can rise. This prevents damage to the product
when the forks are withdrawn.
 Block handling forks can be ordered in any length required and are manufactured with tube, hook, or floating eye
mountings.
 Typical section sizes used for block handling forks are 2"x 1.5"(T x W) and 2"x 2"(T x W). Special sizes are
available upon request.

Features:
 Usually the fork is bolted
all the way up the upright.
 In most instances, the bolt-on design reduces deflection in the upright of the fork, thus reducing the overall
deflection.
 The forks can either be bolted on from the front or the back of the carrier.
 If bolted from the front, the holes will be counter-bored/sunk to alleviate projection of the bolt heads and
damaging product.
 Obtaining the correct bolt-hole pattern for each set of forks is very important. If measuring the pattern on-site, it
is important to first identify if the bolt pattern is inch or metric. Attachment make and model information is also
helpful.
 Bolt holes should not be drilled on the outside heel radius. The start of a bolt-hole pattern should begin at a
minimum of 6 in. (152.4mm) above the top of the blade.

TIRE FORKS
Tire Forks are used for lifting tires of all sizes. The blade can be custom shaped (profiled) for the variety
of sizes (radiuses) of tires on the market. If used in a tire recycling environment, there will be a variety
of types and sizes of tires to be handled. Where damage to the load is not a priority, opt for a more
economical option and order a similar fork with a 45º chamfer on the edge of the blade.

Blade Shaped

Economical Tire
Option Contour

Features:
 The blades of the left and right hand fork have a special radius (as specified by the end-user) to the top inside
edge of each blade. The edges of this radius are finished with soft, round edges to prevent damage to new
product.
 These forks are usually fitted to the carriage fork carrier with bolts. The bolt pattern on the shank of each fork
must match the carrier. The bolt pattern on each fork must be accurately obtained from the end-user in order to
ensure that the blades match each other.

CORRUGATED FORKS (Box Tip)

Corrugated Forks are primarily used to wedge under and to lift corrugated sheets that are resting on the
floor or similar flat surface where there is no skid or spacer separating it from this surface. They can
also be used for other types of product and to separate a load (such as thin steel plate, etc.) that has no
spacers in between the product. This allows for easy entry and reduced damage to the product.

Features:
 The fork blade is reduced in thickness at the tip to a sharp edge. The blade is fully top tapered and polished thus
providing a long, easy transition in the thickness. The outside edges of the tip are rounded, again to allow for ease
of entry.
 This fork is also available with a full bottom taper, when the application requires it.

DRUM FORKS
Drum Forks are designed to be used for lifting one or two drums at one time. Usually these forks are
used for moving the standard 45/55 Canadian/US gallon drum. Cascade can also provide forks for custom
applications if the radius of the drum should differ.

R - 11.25 in / 286 mm

Features:
 The blades of each of the left and right hand fork have an arc cut-away on the inside edge of the blade to match
the drum diameter that is required.
 Fork blades can be supplied with either one or two cut-outs.
 The same forks can also be used for lifting conventional loads, such as skids, giving you a dual purpose
attachment.

OFFSET AND INSET FORKS

Offset Forks are designed primarily for the purpose of enabling the forks on the lift truck to be wider
than the carriage. It is important to note that by doing this, the load capacity of the fork will need to be
re-evaluated. Inset forks, which make the forks narrower than the carriage, can also be designed. Inset
forks are usually required to fit around a vertical center support bar on the carriage. Consideration should
be given to the load now being carried on the extreme edges of the forks. This can impose some twisting
and some additional load on the edges of the hooks.

PEEK-A-BOO (PAB) FORKS

Peek-a-Boo (PAB) Forks have been developed primarily to increase the visibility of the lift truck driver.
This type of fork is usually wide, with a blade less than 50mm thick and used predominantly in the
lumber industry. Reducing the shank width is possible because the stress exerted on the fork while lifting
diminishes gradually as one progresses towards the top of the shank. All requests for PAB Forks should be
confirmed with Cascade Fork Engineering, as the cut-out will be dependent on the load.

Features:
 PAB Forks can be custom ordered to fit either in a predetermined pocket with a wider tube for stability, or as per
the end-users request.
 The lower part of the cut-away which forms the PAB Fork is not recommended to be less than 25mm above the
top of the lower carriage bar.

QUICK DETACH (QD) FORKS

Quick Detach (QD) Forks are designed to be easily and quickly removed from the lift truck's carriage
when required. The key feature is the upper hook which allows the fork to be removed without the need
to remove the carriage/fork retaining bar, which would result in down time for the lift truck. This design
is usually required for big forks that are difficult to handle due to their weight or for handling a different
lifting tool for a different application (e.g. a Coil Ram). Quick interchangeability is a huge time and
financial advantage.

Features:
 Quick Detach Forks have an open style hook which could fit over either a round or square carriage bar.
 Depending on the surface the truck is working on (indoor surface or outdoor uneven surface), each fork may
require a lower retaining fixture to prevent the fork from unintentionally disengaging.
 Owners and operators must ensure a safe and secured method and area for removing the forks. To prevent any
accidents or injury, refer to ANSI/ITSDF B56.1-2012.
 Quick Detach Lower Hook also available.

FOLDING FORKS
Folding Forks are designed to fold at the heel on a pin, allowing the blade to be placed in a vertical
position and secured with a chain. Folding Forks are often necessary when operating in a confined and
restricted work environment and for lift trucks that are transported to different work sites on trailers.

Features:
 Folding Forks consist of a blade, shank, pin and either a hook or shaft mount attachment.
 There is a chain attached to a pin that wraps around the blade. The chain locks into a pin retainer to ensure the
blade is held in the vertical position.
 There are many variables to be considered when ordering a Folding Fork assembly, contact Cascade.

GYPSUM FORKS
Gypsum Forks have been specially designed with product
protection in mind. The unique blade design and vertical
protective upright provides the optimum product protection
when handling gypsum wallboard or other similar products.

Features:
1. Cascade's slide in pad, either polyurethane or neoprene, is rated at 70 durometer. The hardness of the
urethane pad is similar to that of an automobile tire. Replacement pads are available. The pads are impervious
to grease and do not mark the sheet and are extremely durable. The 70 durometer pad is bonded to a steel
plate for stability and rigidity. The slide-in feature of the pad makes replacement quick and simple, averting
expensive down time.
2. Hook or shaft type mountings are available to suit your lift truck.
3. Bent and upset heel section.
4. The blade is polished and all sharp corners removed preventing damage to gypsum board.
5. There is a double-sided bevel at the tip for easy entry between gypsum sheets.
6. Fork widths are normally up to 12" (300mm).
7. Square corner-in heel prevents damage to edge of gypsum sheet.
8. High back support is available.

ANTI-SLIP FORKS
Designed primarily to be used for handling plastic pallets, Anti-Slip Forks
have a durable abrasive coating applied to the top of the blade. The coating
is a hardened steel alloy consisting of sharp peaks and valleys that provides
a jagged surface to grip the pallet. The added grip helps to ensure that loads
remain safely on the forks while moving, changing direction or stopping.

Anti-Slip Surface

Features:
 Superior grip over regular forks.
 Hardened abrasive surface (55-63 Rockwell C).
 Coating adds minimal thickness to the fork.
 Uniform surface ensures minimal damage to pallets and product.
 Forks are also suitable for general applications including wooden pallets.

NOTE: While Anti-Slip Forks are mainly intended for handling plastic pallets, they may be used in alternate
applications such as handling product in cold storage facilities, etc. They are not recommended for use when
contacting other metal or hard surface loads.

WELDING FORK SURFACES

Any welding on a fork can effect the fork properties negatively. The general rule is that there should be
no welding on the top surface of the blade or the front face of the upright (as they are in tension). Any
deviation from this rule must always be consulted with Cascade Fork Engineering so that the appropriate
safety margins can be applied. There are a number of methods where applications can be adjusted to
avoid welding in critical areas. For example this block is welded at the side rather than the front.

LOST LOAD CENTER (Forks only, not attachments)

Lost Load Center describes the difference in distance between the fork thickness that was originally
designed for the lift truck and the new thicker fork required.

FOR EXAMPLE:
Original fork = 40mm thick,…new fork = 50mm thick,…therefore the Lost Load Center is:
40 - 50 = -10
The minus sign indicates "lost" and the 10 shows the difference.

This information is given back to the OEM who will recalculate the load and load center of the lift truck,
which will appear on the "capacity plate" of the truck.
