It has been a busy start in 2001 for RWM Casters with the launch of two new products: a hydraulic pallet truck, and a lightweight and steel platform truck complete with folding handles for easy storage.

The new hydraulic pallet truck boasts a leak-proof hydraulic pump valve that reduces lowering speeds with heavier loads. With a proven 6,600-pound capacity, turning ability is enhanced using tandem load nylon wheels. The load frame is made of high tensile steel construction that has a three-stage fingertip control to raise, lower, or remain neutral.

Meanwhile, the new lightweight platform truck from RWM Casters can support 330-660 pounds depending on the model. They feature four-inch or five-inch hard rubber casters (two rigid, two swivel) for easy steering. Various models include steel folding handles, collapsible aluminum frames, and vinyl protection. These trucks are great for office, stockroom, computer or mailroom, and airport usage.

Both of these products are available through RWM's new RAPIDSTOCK™ program that offers a large inventory of their most popular products. Orders will be shipped in one to five days and can be ordered by phone, fax, or internet.
