Description
The Linde HT100–HT180 (1411 series) is a heavy forklift from Linde with a diesel engine, covering lifting capacities from 10 tonnes (HT100) to 18 tonnes (HT180). HT stands for Heavy Truck, denoting Linde's heaviest IC forklifts with a hydrodynamic drivetrain.
Linde HT100–HT180 specs and lifting capacity:
The series covers lifting capacities from 10,000 kg (HT100) to 18,000 kg (HT180) with a maximum lifting height of 9,500 mm. Top speed is up to 30 km/h. The engine is offered in Perkins and MTU variants, with service intervals of 500 and 750 operating hours respectively. For full dimensions and technical specifications, see the product page for the HT100–HT180.
What sets the HT100–HT180 apart from the lighter IC forklifts in the Linde range is the drivetrain. Where models such as the Linde H50–H80 (396 series) use hydrostatic direct drive optimised for precise handling and stop-start operation, the HT100–HT180 uses a hydrodynamic drivetrain with a gearbox. This gives a higher top speed of up to 30 km/h and better performance over longer transport distances with maximum loads. The HT range is the choice where heavy industrial demands on capacity and speed apply, such as in ports, steelworks, sawmills and large outdoor storage facilities.
The series can run on HVO diesel for a lower carbon footprint without technical modifications. A tiltable cab provides easy access to components from both sides.
The operator compartment is spacious with good legroom, hydraulic seat suspension and low vibration levels. The armrest and steering column are individually adjustable. Large side windows provide near-unobstructed visibility on all sides, and the exhaust system, air intake and air conditioning are positioned so as not to block sight lines. A reinforced glass roof protects the operator from falling objects and provides good upward visibility when lifting at height.
Operating a forklift of this type requires a forklift operator licence class T6, which can be obtained through a large forklift course class T6–T8 with us.
