A Full Rotating Grab Fork Clamp (often referred to as a Revolving Fork Clamp) is a highly versatile forklift attachment that combines three main functions: fork positioning, clamping, and continuous 360° rotation.
Below are the typical technical specifications and features for these units, categorized by standard industry models (e.g., Cascade, KAUP, or East West Engineering).

Technical Performance Data

Most units are designed for standard mounting classes (ISO/FEM II, III, or IV) and vary based on the forklift’s lifting capacity.
Specification Typical Range (Medium Duty) Typical Range (Heavy Duty).
Capacity (Clamping) 1,200 kg – 2,500 kg 3,000 kg – 6,000 kg.
Capacity (on Forks) 1,500 kg – 3,500 kg 4,000 kg – 10,000 kg.
Rotation 360° Continuous (Endless) 360° Continuous (Endless).
Opening Range 300 mm – 1,600 mm 450 mm – 2,300 mm.
Rotation Speed 2.5 – 3.5 RPM 2.0 – 3.0 RPM.
Operating Pressure 120 – 160 bar 160 – 250 bar.
Hydraulic Flow Req. 25 – 45 L/min 40 – 90 L/min.
Weight of Unit 400 kg – 650 kg 800 kg – 2,000+ kg.

Core Functional Features

3-in-1 Versatility:
Standard Forking: Use as normal forks for pallets.
Fork Positioning: Hydraulically adjust fork width to fit different pallet sizes without leaving the cab.
Clamping (Grab): Securely grip non-palletized loads like crates, bales, tires, or drums.
360° Rotation: Invert loads for dumping, sideways stacking, or rotating bins.
Hydraulic Requirements: Requires two additional hydraulic functions on the forklift (one for clamping/positioning and one for rotation).
Visibility: Modern designs feature a “see-through” frame to ensure the operator can see the fork tips clearly.
Safety Valves: Integrated pressure relief and check valves prevent the load from dropping in case of a hydraulic pressure loss.

Physical Components & Options

Forks: Typically available as “bolt-on” or “screw-on” for easy replacement or adjustment.
Bearings: High-quality, lube-free UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight) bearings are common for long service life and reduced maintenance.
Sideshift: Often available as an optional “Integral Sideshift” or “Constant Sideshift” to allow lateral load movement.
Arm Carriers: Built with high-strength T-bar or E-profile steel for maximum durability under clamping pressure.

Common Applications

Recycling & Scrap: Rotating bins to dump waste or scrap metal.
Foundries: Safely handling and pouring hot or heavy containers.
Manufacturing: Moving varied loads that require both palletized and non-palletized handling (e.g., engines, large crates).
Warehousing: Efficiently adjusting for different pallet widths in high-volume environments.
Note on Residual Capacity: Adding a rotating clamp significantly reduces the “Net Capacity” of your forklift due to the weight of the attachment and the increased “Lost Load” distance. Always consult your forklift manufacturer’s load chart before installation.
