Customise your Kalmar Reachstacker with tailored attachment solutions for your operations
Choosing the right attachment is key to unlocking your reachstacker’s full potential, transforming it into a more versatile machine. Whether you are stacking containers, moving trailers, or handling heavy industrial loads, the correct setup is essential.
By selecting customised attachments, you can tailor your machine to specific operational needs, boosting productivity, improving safety, and ensuring your reachstacker works smarter and more efficiently in every operation.
To help you make the right choice, here are the attachment options available for your Kalmar Reachstacker:
1. Toplift
The Toplift attachment is the classic choice for container handling. Using twistlocks to lift from above, it’s simple, dependable and designed for daily stacking and transport. All spreaders and attachments are equipped with lifting hooks as standard in each of the four top-wall corners, allowing safe lifting with slings when needed, with a capacity of up to 50 tonnes.

2. Combilift
With a capacity of up to 45 tonnes, the Combilift is perfect for intermodal operations, making it easy to move entire containers, trailers, swap bodies or wagons between road, rail or ship. With lift legs for trailers, twistlock capability and support for slings, it offers versatility across terminals.

3. Toplift Barge
This attachment is ideal for ports and marine yards, where containers may sit below deck level. An optional extender between the lifting boom and the spreader provides additional negative lift, enabling handling below ground level. The spreader lifts standard ISO containers and flatracks, and with its hydraulic fold-out legs it efficiently manages uneven stacks, with a capacity of up to 45 tonnes.

4. Tool Carrier
For operations that handle more than just containers, the Tool Carrier brings unmatched versatility. It accepts multi-purpose attachments such as grippers and magnets, plus hooks and slings for heavy cargo. This application enables a plug-and-play approach, allowing operators to switch between tools quickly and efficiently. With the right combination of attachments your reachstacker becomes more than just a lifting machine, it becomes a multi-purpose workhorse, ready for the toughest demands. This option lifts up to 85 tonnes via twistlocks and up to 100 tonnes using the standard lifting hooks.

5. Lift Hook
When the job involves oversized or irregular cargo, the Lift Hook is the right choice. The hook also has extra lifting eyes for lifting with 4 slings as standard. Using hooks and slings, it safely lifts large machinery or components up to 380 tonnes.

No matter the challenge, Kalmar will help you find the right solution to get the job done. Because with the right attachment and a partner you can rely on, every lift becomes an opportunity to work smarter and achieve more.
