TCM FTB18 SIT-DOWN FORKLIFT

Technical Description

The TCM FTB18 is a compact three-wheel electric counterbalance forklift engineered for versatile warehouse and indoor material handling operations. This model delivers a robust 3,500-pound load capacity with a 24-inch load center, making it suitable for handling standard pallets and moderate loads in confined spaces. Powered by a 48-volt battery system generating 35.6 horsepower (26 kilowatts), the FTB18 achieves a maximum travel speed of 8.4 miles per hour, providing efficient movement throughout facility layouts. The forklift features a triple-stage mast capable of lifting loads to a maximum height of 10.9 feet, with an impressive lift speed of 90 feet per minute, enabling rapid load positioning and stacking operations. The three-wheel design—comprising two front wheels and one rear wheel—provides exceptional maneuverability with a tight 5.1-foot turning radius, ideal for navigating narrow aisles and congested warehouse environments. Operating dimensions include an overall height of 7.1 feet when the mast is fully lowered and an overall width of 3.6 feet, minimizing overhead clearance requirements and lateral space demands. The vehicle operates at a total weight of 5,630 pounds and features pneumatic tires that deliver reliable traction and shock absorption across various flooring surfaces. The electric power system offers eco-friendly, low-emission operation, making it particularly suitable for indoor environments where air quality and noise levels are considerations. This combination of compact dimensions, responsive handling characteristics, and adequate lifting capacity makes the TCM FTB18 an efficient solution for small-to-medium scale material handling applications.
