The mast is the vertical backbone of any forklift—and in rough terrain conditions, a strong, stable, and well-designed mast can be the difference between safe lifting and costly downtime.
1. Wide-View Mast Design for Better Operator Visibility
The Landtiger35 comes standard with a wide-view mast, engineered to give the operator a clearer forward view—critical when maneuvering in tight or rugged environments.
In contrast, budget models like T35 often use narrower, more obstructive mast designs. This reduced visibility increases the risk of:
- Fork misalignment
- Accidental damage to loads
- Slower and more stressful operation in confined or uneven work zones
2. High-Quality Chains: Hengjiu 7-Plate vs Generic 5-Plate
The lifting chain is what directly handles your load—and in this area, Landtiger35 uses the highest standard available:
- Brand: Hengjiu – one of China’s most respected industrial chain manufacturers
- Configuration: 7-plate parallel chains for better load distribution and redundancy
- Benefits: Higher tensile strength, less elongation over time, smoother lifting motion
Meanwhile, budget forklifts like the T35 typically use unbranded, low-grade 5-plate chains, which:
- Have lower tensile capacity
- Wear faster
- Are more prone to breakage or jerky movement under load
3. Heavy-Duty Mast Bearings: Wanda vs Unknown Brands
Mast performance also depends heavily on the quality of bearings that support vertical movement and stability. The Landtiger35 uses Wanda-brand mast bearings, known for:
- Precision machining
- Longer service life
- Smoother and quieter mast operation
In contrast, many low-cost forklifts use non-branded bearings that wear quickly, resulting in:
- Mast jerking
- Increased friction and noise
- More frequent downtime for repairs
Bearings are a small part with big consequences—and this is often overlooked in low-end machines.
4. Better Load Stability at Height
Because of its wider mast structure and heavier-duty design, the Landtiger35 maintains:
- Better lateral stability when lifting at maximum height
- Less mast sway, even with uneven ground contact
- More confidence for operators in lifting heavier or taller loads
Conclusion:
The mast is not just about height—it’s about visibility, safety, and reliable performance under stress. Landtiger35’s wide-view, heavy-duty mast and top-grade Hengjiu chains provide a clear advantage over cheaper alternatives.
