The Vestil PM5-2748-S-G 304 galvanized steel pallet truck has a handle, two forks, and nylon wheels, and can be used to lift and transport pallets in wet or corrosive environments. This pallet jack is made of galvanized steel, which is resistant to wear, rust, and corrosion. The handle allows the user to jack up the forks and maneuver the pallet truck, and it swivels to provide a 180-degree turning radius. A trigger on the handle releases and lowers the forks.
