Used Carton Clamps in Wisconsin, USA

Overview

Carton clamps are hydraulic attachments designed to handle boxes, trays and other non-palletized loads by clamping them between two arms. Common on forklifts, they allow safe, efficient movement of cartons, beverage packs and stacked goods without pallets. Models vary by clamp force, jaw shape and pad material to protect fragile loads and speed warehouse handling in distribution, manufacturing and retail operations.

FAQ

What should I check when buying a used carton clamp?

Inspect the frame, arms and mounting plate for cracks or distortion, check hydraulic cylinders, hoses and seals for leaks, verify wear on rubber or polyurethane pads, confirm serial/model and capacity, and review maintenance records and cycle operation under pressure.

How do I make sure the clamp is compatible with my forklift or carrier?

Match the carrier mounting class and plate dimensions, confirm hydraulic flow and operating pressure requirements, check rated capacity and load center changes, and verify weight and clearance so the clamp won’t overload or unbalance the machine.

What are the shipping considerations for a carton clamp?

Provide weight and dimensions to the transporter, secure arms and protect pads, drain or secure hydraulic lines if required, bolt or brace the mounting plate, and check for permits if the load is heavy or oversized for road transport.

What routine maintenance does a carton clamp need?

Daily visual checks for leaks and pad wear, lubricate pivots, tighten fasteners, monitor hydraulic oil condition, replace worn pads and seals as needed, and follow manufacturer intervals for inspection and rebuild of cylinders and valve components.
