What is a telehandler spreader bar used for?

A telehandler spreader bar is used to safely lift wide or long loads by extending the rigging points outward. This keeps sling angles within safe limits and stops the load from shifting or pinching, which matters for panels, pipe bundles, and structural steel.

Is the Star Industries spreader bar adjustable?

Yes, the Star Industries Heavy Duty Extendable Spreader Bar is designed to extend, letting you adjust the spread width to match different load sizes instead of stocking multiple fixed-width bars.

Does the spreader bar come with a warranty?

Yes, the Star Industries spreader bar includes the manufacturer warranty listed on its product page. Review the page for the specific coverage terms before you order.

How is the spreader bar shipped?

The spreader bar ships via insured LTL freight, which covers the attachment during transit to your facility. Contact Vovlift at +1 (307) 441-5529 for freight scheduling questions before you place an order.

How to Choose a Telehandler Spreader Bar

What is a telehandler spreader bar?

A spreader bar is a rigid attachment that mounts to a telehandler's forks or carriage and extends the lifting points outward. It keeps sling legs at a safe angle when moving wide or long loads, preventing the load from squeezing inward and reducing stress on the rigging.

How do I know if a spreader bar fits my telehandler?

Check the attachment's fork pocket dimensions and carriage class against your telehandler's specifications before ordering. The product page lists the exact mounting details so you can confirm compatibility with your machine ahead of purchase.

Do I need an adjustable or fixed-width spreader bar?

Choose an adjustable, extendable bar if you regularly handle loads of varying widths, such as panels, beams, or pipe bundles of different lengths. A fixed-width bar suits operations that consistently move the same load dimensions.
