Forklift Block Forks & Brick Forks for Masonry Handling
Fork-Co’s Forklift Block Forks, also called Brick Forks, are narrow-blade forklift forks designed to handle concrete block, brick, and other masonry products stacked in unit loads. On compatible concrete masonry unit (CMU) loads, several narrow forks slide into the openings in the bottom layer. That layer supports the rest of the stack, allowing the operator to lift and move the load without a separate pallet.
Block forks are used in concrete product plants, masonry supply yards, and building material distribution centers to move finished loads from production to storage, stage orders, and load trailers. For brick and pavers, the fork arrangement can be matched to the way the product is stacked and the access points beneath the load.
Fork-Co builds custom block forks in a range of lengths, widths, and capacities. Blade dimensions, fork spacing, and the number of forks can be matched to your forklift, masonry products, and load pattern.
Description & Usage
Use Fork-Co Block Forks to pick up unitized masonry loads that have openings or entry points sized for narrow fork blades. A multiple-fork arrangement supports the load at several points during pickup, transport, and placement.
- Narrow blade profile — Fits the openings in compatible concrete block loads.
- Multiple-fork configurations — Match the number and spacing of the forks to the bottom layer of the stack.
- Pallet-free handling — Uses the bottom block layer as the load base when the stacking pattern allows it.
- Custom sizing — Fork-Co can match blade length, width, and rated capacity to the forklift and the intended load.
Concrete block manufacturers use these forks to move finished CMU loads from production to yard storage. Masonry suppliers and distributors use them to organize inventory, stage orders, and load outbound trucks. Construction material yards use them to unload and position compatible block, brick, and paver loads.
