This 2006 Caterpillar GP50K1 is a used gas forklift — sometimes referred to as a lift truck or forklift truck — built for heavy-duty material handling in warehouses, distribution centres, manufacturing facilities, and industrial yards. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised names in construction, mining, and industrial equipment, with a long history of producing robust lift trucks engineered for demanding commercial and industrial applications.
The machine is equipped with an LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) fuel system and has accumulated 11,287 hours of use. It carries a rated lift capacity of 11,000 lb, placing it firmly in the heavy-duty forklift class and making it well suited to applications involving large pallets, steel, lumber, or other substantial loads. The unit weighs 17,550 lb, which reflects the substantial counterweight and frame construction required to handle loads of this size safely.
The mast configuration is a triple-stage unit with a maximum lift height of 189 inches, combined with full free lift, meaning the forks can be raised to a useful working height before the outer mast sections begin to extend — an important feature when working in confined spaces or under low ceilings. A side shift attachment is fitted, allowing the operator to move the forks laterally without repositioning the entire machine, improving load placement accuracy and throughput efficiency.
Running gear consists of dual front solid pneumatic tyres, which provide the load-bearing strength and puncture resistance associated with solid construction while still offering a degree of cushioning from the pneumatic profile. This tyre configuration makes the machine appropriate for use on hard, reasonably smooth surfaces such as concrete yards and warehouse floors.
The forklift is located in Alabama, USA, and is offered at $32,500.
