Understanding the Hydraulic Hand Pallet Truck: Structure & Technical Parameters
A hydraulic hand pallet truck, also known as a manual pallet jack, is engineered for the manual transportation of palletized loads. It consists of five core components:
Fork Frame – High-strength welded steel with anti-corrosive finish for durability and rigidity.
Push/Pull Handle – Ergonomically designed for operator comfort and control.
Load/Steer Wheels – Polyurethane or nylon for low rolling resistance and surface protection.
Release Mechanism – Ensures safety by controlled lowering of the load.

Advanced Manufacturing Process – Hydraulic Hand Pallet Truck
The following diagram details the core manufacturing workflow for high-end hydraulic hand pallet truck models, such as the Super Long Hand Pallet Truck. Standards referenced: ISO 3691 / ANSI B56.1 / EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
Process: Solution design → 3D CAD simulation → Sample build (10 days) → Batch manufacturing (2–3 weeks)
All customization undergoes strict ISO/CE compliance verification, and simulation cycle-test up to 50,000 actuations under 120% rated load.
Real-World Application Scenarios
Petrochemical Plants: Movement of oversized valve boxes and barrel drums, requiring corrosion-resistant hydraulic hand pallet truck in acidic/alkaline environments.
Metallurgy & Steel Yards: Loading/unloading heavy steel coils and profiles where super long forks preserve load center to prevent tipping.
Municipal Water Facilities: Handling submersible pumps and panels under wet corrosive conditions, using 304 stainless steel pallet jacks.
Case: Shanghai JS Petrochemical – Fluid Drums Handling Automation, 2024 Challenge: Standard hand pallet trucks failed in acidic splashes and bulky drummed loads. Solution: QYJuli supplied 30 units of Super Long Hand Pallet Truck (2000mm forks, 304 SS housing, specialized acid-proof PU wheels). Result:Zero-corrosion downtime in 12 months, lowered ergonomic stress, and 22% reduction in 2-man operations. Feedback: “Surpassed our equipment lifecycle KPIs. QYJuli’s support from simulation to on-site training is exemplary.” — Head of Logistics, JS Petrochemical
FAQ: Professional Questions about Hydraulic Hand Pallet Trucks
Q1: What is the recommended steel grade for high-durability hand pallet trucks?
A: Premium models use Q235B or alloy steel with a yield strength above 350MPa, ensuring 10,000+ cycles under full load per ISO 3691.
Q2: What certifications are critical for exporting pallet jacks to EU/NA?
A: ISO 3691 (conformance), CE Mark (safety), and ANSI B56.1 (US), along with load test records, are essential.
Q3: How is corrosion-resistance achieved for use in chemical plants?
A: By using 304/316 stainless steel for the frame and acid-proof PU wheels; plus dual-layer powder coating or zinc/nickel plating on carbon steel parts.
Q4: How do I specify the correct fork length?
A: Measure your largest pallet load; fork length should be 100–150mm longer for stable lifting—e.g. 2,000mm for double-stacked industrial pallets.
Q5: What’s the typical hydraulic system design?
A: High-grade cast or CNC-machined pumps with sealed double-acting cylinders, chrome-plated rod, and replaceable imported seals for extended, leak-free service.
Q6: What is the typical lead time for a customized hand pallet jack?
A: Standard models ship in 5–7 working days. Custom 304SS/long-fork units require 2–3 weeks, including prototype testing and compliance checks.
