Product overview

The Iron Lift FORGE 68HD moves the FORGE range into higher-capacity commercial and industrial work. Rated to 6,800 kg, it uses a wide clear-floor structure with 3,137 mm between columns and three installation-height settings, giving workshops room to handle larger vehicles while maintaining open access through the centre of the bay.
