Extended pallet fork teeth from Ignite Attachments maintain load stability and performance

When it comes to material handling, even a few extra inches of reach can make all the difference. For compact equipment operators, the standard fork length may get the job done, but it rarely delivers optimal reach, balance, or efficiency. Too often, this mismatch results in wasted time, unstable loads, or extra effort repositioning. Many have turned to bolt-on extensions to compensate, but those add-ons can be cumbersome, time-consuming, and unreliable.

Through ongoing conversations with operators, Ignite Attachments heard one challenge loud and clear: sometimes "standard" falls short of what the job really demands. Contractors need a safer, simpler way to reach further and handle larger or awkward loads with confidence. Ignite Attachments responded with its new 60- and 72-inch pallet fork teeth, designed to deliver the extra reach operators need without sacrificing safety or stability.

Longer forks built for real-world reach

When forks are too short for the job, operators often struggle to safely balance oversized or uneven loads. Pallets can tilt forward, shifting the centre of gravity, and increasing the risk of tipping or material loss. The shorter reach also forces operators to manoeuvre closer to trailers or stacks, which can slow workflows and increase wear on both the attachment and the machine.

While bolt-on fork extensions are a common workaround, they add time, complexity, and potential safety risks. Recognizing this problem, Ignite now offers pallet fork teeth built from a single piece of high-strength steel, delivering a solid, continuous design that maintains load stability and performance without the added bulk or maintenance of extensions.

Engineered for heavy-duty and severe-duty frames and rated for 6,000 pounds, the forks provide better reach, balance and stability for heavy or awkward materials across construction, landscaping, agriculture and rental applications.

"Progress comes from questioning what's considered standard," said Trisha Pearson, business director for Ignite Attachments. "By rethinking something as simple as pallet fork teeth, we've released a design that helps operators lift smarter, safer and with greater confidence on every job. That mindset drives everything we do at Ignite—from how we design our attachments to how we deliver them — because there's always a smarter, more efficient way to help our customers get the job done."

Expanded parts lineup delivers more options

That same forward-thinking approach extends across Ignite's entire product and parts portfolio. As the company continues to grow, its focus remains on identifying ways to make compact equipment ownership easier, faster and more cost-effective. 

The new pallet fork teeth are an important part of the company's latest parts expansion, which also includes a growing selection of wear parts and accessories designed to keep compact equipment running smoothly. 

Other expanded accessories include:

• Tooth bars available in 56-, 62-, 68-, and 74-inch widths for enhanced digging and breakout force
• Coupler Combo Kit for John Deere tractors for improved compatibility and flexibility across fleets
• Stump planers for fast, efficient stump removal in landscaping and land management applications
• Replacement tracks designed for durability and long-term reliability
• Attachment slate spray paint to protect surfaces and maintain a professional appearance

All products are available for fast, direct-to-you delivery, and always free shipping on orders over $99, ensuring quick turnaround and reduced downtime.

"This expansion builds on our mission to be a one-stop shop for compact equipment owners, offering the right fit, at the right price, right now," Pearson said. "It's all about helping operators plan ahead for the busy spring season and giving them access to the parts and attachments they need, when they need them."
