Magliner NPK122G2C5C Aluminum Paddle Brake Hand Truck, U Frame Extension, Loop Handle, Foam Filled 10" Wheels, 60" Height x 21-/2" Wide x 20-1/2" Depth, 500 lb. Load Capacity

The Magliner NPK122G2C5C aluminum hand truck has a U frame extension, loop handle, paddle brake, extruded nose plate, two foam-filled rubber wheels with 10" diameters, a 500 lb. load capacity, and is suitable for moving boxes and other heavy items on inclined surfaces in wet or dry environments. The hand truck's frame and nose plate are made of aluminum, which weighs less than steel and is resistant to rust and corrosion. The hand truck has a U frame extension to help support tall loads, and a loop handle that can be gripped in different places for comfort and convenience. It has a paddle brake that is activated by self-adjusting self-aligning steel aircraft cables for even braking and to help slow or stop the hand truck. The wheels on the hand truck have one-piece steel hubs and semi-precision bearings to help reduce friction and support the load. The hand truck measures 60 inches x 21-1/2 inches x 20-1/2 inches (H x W x D). (H is height, the vertical distance from lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back.) The nose plate measures 18 inches by 9 inches (W x D). This hand truck requires assembly; instructions and hardware for assembly are included, tools for assembly are sold separately.Hand trucks, also known as two-wheeled dollies, are used to transport heavy or bulky items, especially in commercial product distribution and delivery. Hand trucks are L-shaped, with handles at the top, two wheels at the bottom, and a small platform that touches the ground when the truck is upright. A load is placed on the platform and the truck is tilted back, balancing the weight over the wheels. Powered hand trucks have a platform that lifts the load up, or lowers it down, to reduce human labor. Some hand trucks may be convertible to platform trucks for moving large or cumbersome loads. Others fold flat for storage.Magline manufactures Magliner brand hand trucks, dollies, ramps, and other products for material handling applications. The company, founded in 1947, is headquartered in Standish, MI.
