Frequently Asked Questions

Which forklift brands do you make electric counterweights for?

We regularly produce counterweights for Toyota, Linde, Hyster, Yale, CAT, UniCarriers, NICHIYU, Komatsu and other brands. If your model is not listed, send us the brand & model or a drawing and we will confirm fitment.

Which trucks is this counterweight made for?

It is our standard counterweight for 3 t and 3.5 t forklifts, both internal combustion and converted-electric. Standard weight is 1,650 – 2,100 kg. If your truck falls outside that range, send us the model and we will confirm what fits.

Is this a solid casting or a cast-shell composite?

It is a cast-shell composite. The outer shell is cast in QT400 ductile iron, which gives the counterweight its finished shape and its mounting points, and a composite core carries the balance of the weight. Because less iron is poured than in a solid casting of the same mass, the part costs less, while the external geometry and the bolt pattern stay exactly as drawn.

What weight tolerance can you guarantee?

±1% of the specified weight. Every unit is weighed on a calibrated scale and a weight certificate is provided with the shipment.

Can I order a single sample first?

Yes. MOQ is 1 unit for samples and 10+ units for production batches. Sample lead time is 45 days depending on casting and customization.

Can you work from a physical sample or photos only?

Yes. We can reverse-engineer counterweights from a physical sample or from clear photos with measurements. Send us whatever you have and our engineers will take it from there.

How is it packaged and shipped internationally?

Counterweights are packed on export-grade wooden pallets with rust-preventive coating. We ship FCL/LCL with FOB/CIF terms and prepare the full export documentation package (packing list, inspection report, certificate of origin).
