Vestil HOP-LP Low-Profile Parts Hopper, 2,000 lb. Capacity

The Vestil HOP-LP low-profile parts hopper is designed for professional and industrial environments, featuring a sturdy steel construction, fork pockets, and four caster wheels that allow for easy maneuverability and transportation of small parts. The hopper's unique low-profile design enables it to be placed under heavy machinery or other areas to collect and move parts effectively.

The hopper is made of 10-gauge steel, which is stronger and more resistant to fractures than aluminum or cast iron. The steel's thickness, or gauge, is a measure of its strength, with a lower gauge indicating a thicker material. This robust construction ensures the hopper can withstand heavy loads and prolonged use.

The caster wheels, measuring 2 inches wide and 4 inches in diameter, are made of glass-filled nylon, a material that is resistant to impacts, wear, and corrosion. This durable design allows the hopper to support heavy loads and be moved easily. Two of the wheels are swivel casters, providing maneuverability, and one of these swivel casters has a brake to keep the hopper from rolling when not in use.

The push handle can be removed, allowing the hopper to be used without it. This feature adds flexibility, enabling the user to position the hopper in tight spaces or access areas with limited clearance.

The hopper has a volume of 1/2 cubic yard and a load capacity of 2,000 lb. It weighs 365 lb. and measures 34 x 48-1/2 x 56-1/2 inches (H x W x D), where H is the height (vertical distance from lowest to highest point), W is the width (horizontal distance from left to right), and D is the depth (horizontal distance from front to back).

The fork pockets located on the hopper enable it to be picked up, moved, and dumped using a forklift truck (sold separately). This feature allows for easy transportation and unloading of the collected parts.

Additionally, the hopper has a safety restraint that secures it to the forklift truck, ensuring safe and secure transport. The unique design of the hopper also allows it to return to an upright and locked position when lowered to the floor, providing added stability and preventing accidental tipping or rolling.

Overall, the Vestil HOP-LP low-profile parts hopper is a versatile and durable solution for collecting and moving small parts in professional and industrial settings. Its robust construction, maneuverability, and specialized features make it an efficient and practical tool for various applications.
