High-reach Forklift Counterweights

As a specialized China manufacturer,Shengjian Fanrong engineered high-density High-reach Forklift Counterweights, supplying optimized ballast components for tall-mast lifting operations. Utilizing HT200 gray cast iron, our custom-molded blocks maximize rear-wheel ground adhesion to eliminate forward-tipping risks during high-elevation warehouse maneuvers.

Shengjian Fanrong is a premier Chinese manufacturer and industrial supplier of high-density High-reach Forklift Counterweights built exclusively for elevated material handling setups. Our foundry pours robust, wear-resistant safety ballast blocks designed to maintain stable forklift balance during high-lift operations when lifting heavy loads to maximum vertical rack extensions.

A forklift counterweight needs to match the equipment rather than simply adding additional mass to the rear of the vehicle.

During production evaluation, Shengjian Fanrong considers:

  • Forklift model and operating conditions
  • Counterweight mounting location
  • Required total ballast weight
  • Mounting hole arrangement
  • External dimensions and clearance requirements
  • For replacement projects, customers can provide an existing counterweight sample or technical drawing. The casting structure can then be developed based on the original component dimensions and installation conditions.

    This approach helps maintain compatibility with existing forklift designs while avoiding unnecessary increases in counterweight size.

    HT200 Gray Cast Iron with 7.0–7.2 g/cm³ Density

    The material used for a forklift counterweight directly affects the amount of ballast that can be achieved within a limited space.

    Shengjian Fanrong mainly uses HT200 gray cast iron according to GB/T 9439 for counterweight production.

    Typical material characteristics:

    Item Specification
    Material HT200 Gray Cast Iron
    Density Approx. 7.0–7.2 g/cm³
    Standard GB/T 9439
    Manufacturing Process Sand Casting

    Gray cast iron is widely used for industrial counterweights because it combines suitable density with good casting performance and vibration damping characteristics.

    For forklift applications, this allows manufacturers to obtain the required counterbalance weight while keeping the component structure practical for installation and transportation.

    How Shengjian Fanrong Produces Forklift Counterweights

    Drawing and Sample Review

    Before production, technical information is reviewed, including:

  • CAD drawings
  • Existing parts
  • Forklift models
  • Installation dimensions
  • For replacement counterweights, original samples can be measured and converted into production data.

    Casting Production

    After confirmation of the casting design, production follows standard gray iron casting procedures.

    The process includes:

    1. Mold preparation
    2. HT200 iron melting
    3. Sand casting
    4. Cooling and cleaning
    5. Shot blasting
    6. Surface coating

    Each stage affects the final weight accuracy, surface condition, and dimensional consistency of the counterweight.

    Inspection Before Shipment

    Counterweights are inspected before delivery, including:

    Material Inspection

  • Chemical composition testing
  • Material grade confirmation
  • Dimensional Inspection

  • External dimensions
  • Mounting positions
  • Critical interfaces
  • Finished Product Inspection

  • Weight measurement
  • Surface condition
  • Packaging inspection
  • Inspection records are maintained according to the company’s quality management procedures.
