A 3-wheel forklift is a type of lift truck used in the material handling industry that features a single drive wheel at the back and two wheels at the front, forming a three-point suspension system. This design provides exceptional maneuverability, making the forklift ideal for indoor operations and tight spaces, such as warehouses or narrow aisles. The rear wheel acts as a pivot point, allowing for a smaller turning radius compared to 4-wheel models. Typically electric-powered, 3-wheel forklifts are also valued for their efficiency, ease of use, and ability to perform in environments where precision and agility are crucial.
