Pittsburgh – – October 05, 2026 -- An inventor from Statesville, N.C., has developed the TIP HOOK, a device designed to let forklifts safely lift and suspend heavy objects for temporary storage or relocation within warehouses and construction sites.
Device enables forklift-based suspension in low-headroom spaces
The TIP HOOK attaches to the dual spaced forks of a forklift, allowing operators to hang heavy items even where ceiling clearance is limited. The inventor said the goal was to create "a very safe and reliable means of lifting and suspending heavy objects via a forklift," targeting facilities where floor space is constrained.
