What is a forklift mast?

The mast is the system in a forklift that performs load lifting. 

The mast consists of a fork and an elevation mechanism, associated with the lift truck’s hydraulic assembly. Two systems of classification have arisen to describe a forklift truck's mast in detail. An operating manual may classify the mast either by the lift mechanism, or by the number of mast "sections". Regardless of the terminology, it’s important to know the difference in forklift mast types when choosing the right forklift mast for your facility.

Standard and full free lift forklifts

The mast makes a big difference in the functionality of a forklift within a particular environment. The single mast elevates the inner mast section along with the load. It requires additional overhead space to allow for the channels of the mast to raise higher than the load. This can be problematic in narrow aisles and tight quarters at lower forklift lift heights.

Other types of forklifts, designed for use within restricted overhead spaces are called "full free lift" masts. They allow the forks to lift without raising the mast channels. These forklifts allow an operator to maneuver more easily in areas with limited available overhead space. Typically, the necessity of placing a hydraulic mechanism in the center of a full free lift mast means an operator will not have as much visibility as they would in a standard forklift. This should be taken into consideration depending on the application, type of product being moved and general work requirements.

How many forklift mast types are there?

1. Simplex Mast
Usually these forklifts can lift loads only limited distances. For instance, they may lift cargo onto the back of a truck.

2. Duplex Mast
This mast is the optimal choice when loads need to be double-stacked and the lift truck will not be placing such loads into high racking.  Material handling application examples include freight cross-docking and manufacturing component delivery operations. (Also known as: Duplex Upright or Two-Stage Free-Lift Mast).

3. Triplex Mast
These widely used masts have become the most popular recently. They enable loading and unloading at higher elevations than duplex masts. 

4. Quad Mast
As the name suggests, this complex mast depends on four sets of rails and chains to move loads. Forklift operators typically require advanced training in order to use this type of mast, which reaches much higher elevations and may have restricted visibility.
