Compliant Self-Dumping Forklift Hoppers

Safe Bottom-Discharge Design | VTH10 – VTH20 – VTH30

Our self-dumping forklift hoppers are engineered for industrial safety, durability, and U.S. market compliance.
All VTH series hoppers use a true safety locking latch system, ensuring controlled dumping and preventing unintended discharge during forklift operation.

Designed for warehouses, recycling facilities, and manufacturing plants.

Why Safety Latch Design Matters

Many low-cost forklift hoppers rely on pull ropes that directly pull the bottom door, which can cause accidental dumping due to vibration or cable wear.

Our design eliminates this risk.

Key Safety Advantages

• Bottom door secured by a mechanical safety locking latch
• Pull cable only releases the latch (no load on cable)
• Auto-locking mechanism when the hopper is lowered
• Safety restraint chain to prevent fork slippage
• Designed to comply with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.178(m)(5)
