Diesel and Gas Forklifts
Diesel and LPG Counterbalance Forklift Trucks
Our diesel and gas counterbalance trucks deliver power and efficiency, ensuring smooth and effective operations. These durable trucks are designed for outdoor environments, providing reliable performance even in challenging conditions such as rough terrain, steep inclines, and extreme weather.
Our range includes diesel forklifts from 1.5 to 25 tonnes and gas forklifts from 1.5 to 7 tonnes, all meeting Euro Stage V standards for engine compliance. Each diesel model is equipped with a diesel particulate filter (DPF) to reduce emissions, while gas models come with a catalytic converter for cleaner operation.
At Grant Handling, we prioritise customer choice. Our team is here to help you find the right truck to suit your specific needs.
Advantages of Diesel Forklifts
- High Power Output: Diesel forklifts offer impressive torque, making them well-suited for heavy-duty applications where strength is paramount.
- Extended Operation Time: Unlike electric forklifts, diesel models don’t rely on batteries. With quick refuelling, they’re always ready for another shift.
- Lower Initial Cost: Generally, diesel models cost less upfront than electric, making them a practical choice for many businesses.
- Ideal for Outdoor Use: Able to navigate rough terrain and steep gradients, diesel forklifts are an excellent choice for construction sites and other outdoor settings.
Advantages of Gas Forklifts
- Longer Runtime: Gas forklifts can operate for longer shifts without refueling, unlike electric forklifts which require time to recharge.
- Lower Initial Cost: In general, gas forklifts cost less upfront compared to electric models.
- Indoor and Outdoor Flexibility: With proper ventilation, gas forklifts can be used indoors as well as outdoors.
- Noise Reduction: Gas forklifts typically generate less noise than diesel forklifts.
