However, generally, the maximum handling limit of a manual pallet truck will average out at around <strong>700kg<\/strong>, or <strong>1500lbs<\/strong>. The average maximum handling limit of an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manutan.co.uk\/en\/key\/electric-pallet-truck\">electric pallet truck<\/a> is much larger, at around <strong>2300kgs<\/strong>, or <strong>5000lbs<\/strong>. It is important to note that different brands or types of pallet truck will have slightly different weight limits to go off of, that will usually be provided when bought; in this instance, you would obviously go by the maximum handling limit supplied. For example, our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manutan.co.uk\/en\/key\/pallet-truck-2500kg-capacity\">Heavy Duty Pallet Truck<\/a> comes with a maximum load capacity of 2500kg, and is stated clearly in the product. Always make sure that you\u2019re aware of the specific handling limit of each of your pallet trucks, to ensure that you\u2019re using the trucks as safely as possible. Other popular types of pallet truck that may have differing maximum handling limits include;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.manutan.co.uk\/en\/key\/manual-pallet-truck\">manual pallet trucks<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manutan.co.uk\/en\/key\/high-lift-pallet-truck\">high-lift pallet trucks<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manutan.co.uk\/en\/key\/weigh-scale-pallet-truck\">weigh scale pallet trucks<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p><style>@import url('https:\/\/fonts.googleapis.com\/css2?family=Barlow+Condensed&display=swap');.carouselWrap{font-family: 'Barlow Condensed', sans-serif;margin-top: 5%;color: black;text-decoration: none;}#catBtn{text-decoration: none !important;padding: 1%;color: white;background-color: #fc560b;width: 100%;text-align: center;display: block;}.carousel{display: flex;justify-content: space-evenly;margin-top: 2%;}.products{border: 1px solid lightgray; max-width: 210px;}.products:hover {box-shadow: 0 0 11px rgba(33,33,33,.2);}.productText,.productPrice{color: black;text-decoration: none;padding: 10px;}.shopBtn{text-decoration: none !important;padding: 1%;color: white;background-color: #fc560b;}.carouselFooter{display: flex;justify-content: flex-end;}.carouselImg{max-height:200px;max-width:200px; display: block;margin: auto;}<\/style><\/p>\n<div class=\"carouselWrap\">\n<div class=\"introheader\">\n<div class=\"introText\">\n<h3>Trucks, trolleys &amp; stackers<\/h3>\n<p>Revolutionize your workplace logistics with Manutan UK&#8217;s comprehensive collection of Trucks, Trolleys, and Stackers.
