Plastic pallets come in many types based on their bottom shape. Not every pallet is compatible with all forklifts. Some plastic pallets are only compatible with mechanical forklifts, while others are compatible with both mechanical and manual forklifts.
1. Double-sided Plastic Pallets
Flat Double-sided Plastic Pallet (for mechanical forklift use only, four-way only)
Grid Double-sided Plastic Pallet (for mechanical forklift use only, four-way only)
2. Single-sided Plastic Pallets
Flat Nine-legged Plastic Pallet; Grid Nine-legged Plastic Pallet (for both mechanical and manual use, four-way only)
Flat Grid-patterned Plastic Pallet; Grid Grid-patterned Plastic Pallet (for mechanical forklift use only, four-way only)
Flat Three-legged Plastic Pallet; Grid Three-legged Plastic Pallet (for mechanical forklift use, two-way manual forklift use)
Whether a pallet is compatible with both mechanical and manual forklifts depends mainly on the pallet's bottom structure. For example, double-sided or grid-patterned pallets may have crossbeams or be flat, preventing manual forklifts from entering. Even if they do enter, the forklifts will be stuck in the middle of the pallet, making it unusable. Therefore, consumers must choose plastic pallets based on their actual needs to avoid purchasing an unsuitable product.
