The Machining & Welding 7000 LB 4 IN Forklift Pocket Lift adds a hook attachment point to a forklift, rated to 7,000 pounds for 4 inch forks.

Facilities that already run forklifts often add pocket lifts like this to extend their equipment's use to slung and rigged loads.

Steel construction and a properly sized fork pocket keep this attachment secure on the forks during the lift.

For facilities without a permanent crane, a pocket lift attachment extends what the forklift can do on lifting days.

Maintenance departments, fabrication shops, warehouses, and construction crews all rely on equipment in this category to handle lifts that come up again and again. Having the right beam or crane on hand means operators are not left rigging a load with mismatched slings or borrowed hardware, which keeps every lift consistent regardless of who is running it that day.

Before putting any lifting equipment into service, verify it matches your hoist or crane setup and confirm the rated capacity covers your heaviest expected load with margin to spare. Routine inspection of welds, pins, and connection hardware helps catch wear before it becomes a safety issue. Keep a simple inspection log if your facility does not already have one, since tracking wear over time makes it easier to plan replacement before a part actually fails in use.

Rigging hardware like this sees repeated use, so look for equipment that is properly rated, clearly marked, and traceable to a manufacturer that stands behind its specifications. Keeping documentation on hand for each piece of equipment also makes routine inspections and any future certification requirements easier to manage.

Full specifications are listed below so you can confirm fit against your current rigging before it ships.
