Custom Forklift Battery Matching


A forklift battery cannot be selected by voltage alone. Battery capacity, compartment dimensions, required weight, discharge current, connector, charger and daily operating hours should also be considered.

For accurate battery matching, please send us:

● Forklift brand and model
● Existing battery voltage
● Required battery capacity (Ah)
● Battery compartment dimensions
● Existing battery weight or counterweight requirement
● Connector type
● Charger specifications
● CAN / RS485 communication requirements
● Daily working hours and number of shifts
● Required quantity
