Wesco Spartan SR Convertible Hand Truck

This Wesco 219999 Spartan Sr. aluminum 2-in-1 hand truck can be used for transporting heavy loads up to 500 lb. in two-wheel mode and up to 1,000 lb. in four-wheel mode. The handle can be adjusted with a pedal release to enable a four-wheel configuration for horizontal arrangement of cargo, or a two-wheel configuration for vertical stacking of the load. The cast-aluminum noseplate is 18" wide, and the horizontal load bed measures 12 x 51" (W x D) in four-wheel mode. The truck has two 10" solid rubber load wheels and two 5" non-marking swivel casters for support and maneuverability. This aluminum 2-in-1 hand truck is suitable for use in industrial and commercial ettings. Hand trucks are L-shaped, with handles at the top, two wheels at the bottom, and a small platform that touches the ground when the truck is upright. A load is placed on the platform and the truck is tilted back, balancing the weight over the wheels. Powered hand trucks have a platform that lifts the load up, or lowers it down, to reduce human labor. Some hand trucks may be convertible to platform trucks for moving large or cumbersome loads. Others fold flat for storage.
