Description
-The GNT GD50 is a counterbalanced diesel forklift rated to lift 5,000 lb at a 24-inch load center, built for heavy-duty material handling across warehouses, factories, and distribution centers. It pairs a Tier 4 EPA-compliant diesel engine with a high-strength steel frame and solid pneumatic tires, so it moves loads on smooth warehouse floors and holds traction on outdoor yards and uneven terrain.
Power comes from a Kubota or Mitsubishi 4EG diesel engine rated 49 HP at 2,250 rpm, engineered for reduced fuel consumption without giving up pulling power. The GD50 reaches a maximum lift height of 185 inches with 37.9 inches of free lift, travels up to 11.2 mph unloaded, and carries 48-inch forks. For operations standardizing on diesel forklifts, it brings a durable drivetrain and accessible components that keep maintenance and downtime low.
Forklift King ships the GD50 via LTL freight. Contact us to arrange scheduling and delivery for your site.
