KALMAR DCD 250-12LB SIT-DOWN FORKLIFT

The Kalmar DCD 250-12LB is a heavy-duty diesel forklift engineered for high-intensity industrial applications requiring substantial lifting capacity. It features a robust load capacity of 55,115.6 lbs (25 tons) with a load center of 47.3 inches, making it suitable for handling large, heavy loads such as containers and industrial equipment. The forklift has an overall width of 10.1 feet and a wheelbase of 14 feet, providing a stable and balanced platform for heavy lifting operations. It operates on four pneumatic tires (two front, two rear), which offer superior traction and cushioning on various surfaces. Weighing 72,532.1 lbs, the Kalmar DCD 250-12LB is designed with a durable chassis and advanced hydraulic systems to endure extreme stresses in tough environments. The mast supports a lifting height typically up to approximately 4,000 to 5,000 mm, depending on mast configuration, with duplex or duplex freelift options and integrated sideshift/fork positioning for precise load handling. The drive axle incorporates a two-stage reduction to minimize transmission strain, and it uses a hydraulic wet disc brake system known for smooth, effective braking without overheating under sustained heavy use. Powered by a high-torque diesel engine with advanced fuel efficiency and emissions compliance, the forklift achieves reliable performance and excellent gradeability (up to 67%) for demanding uphill or uneven terrain operations. Its design also includes minimal maintenance requirements through systems that reduce wear and tear, enhancing operational availability. Overall, the Kalmar DCD 250-12LB combines high load capacity, stable design, and advanced drivetrain and braking technologies tailored for rigorous industrial forklift tasks.
