Moving Heavy Loads Alone Shouldn't Mean Risking Your Back or Your Gear

Most hand trolleys force you to choose - either a sack truck for upright loads or a platform trolley for flat ones. The FW85 Convertible Aluminium Hand Truck does both. Switch between vertical and horizontal modes in seconds, handling up to 200kg upright and 250kg flat, so one trolley covers the full range of your daily handling tasks.

The Problem It Solves

• Awkward, heavy loads with no safe way to move them - the dual-handle design gives you a secure, ergonomic grip whether you're pushing, pulling, or tipping, reducing strain on your back and wrists.
• Trolleys that only do one job - the convertible frame switches from sack truck to platform trolley without tools, cutting the number of pieces of equipment you need on the floor.
• Rough surfaces and noisy warehouse floors - the large 255mm pneumatic wheels absorb bumps and reduce rolling noise, keeping loads stable across concrete, ramps, and uneven ground.
• Equipment that rusts or corrodes in outdoor or wet environments - the full aluminium frame resists corrosion, so it holds up in loading docks, cool rooms, and outdoor yards without deteriorating.

Key Features

• Dual load capacity - 200kg vertical / 250kg horizontal, covering the majority of warehouse and delivery handling tasks with a single unit.
• Convertible frame - switches between sack truck and platform trolley modes quickly, without tools or disassembly.
• Lightweight aluminium construction - at 17kg, the trolley is easy to manoeuvre and reposition without adding fatigue to your team's day.
• Dual ergonomic handles - positioned for natural grip in both operating modes, reducing wrist and shoulder strain during extended use.
• 255mm pneumatic rear wheels + 125mm front wheels - the pneumatic tyres absorb shock and reduce noise on hard floors, ramps, and outdoor surfaces.
• Straight stress-resistant frame - engineered to absorb impact and maintain rigidity under load, not flex or buckle over time.
• Base plate: 457 x 232 x 118.5mm - sized to get under palletised goods, appliances, and boxed freight without needing to tilt the load first.
• Compact storage footprint - stands upright in tight spaces between uses, practical for vans, storerooms, and shared workspaces.
