The JET PT09 is a 2500kg hand pallet truck built for everyday pallet moving in any NZ warehouse or stockroom. It comes from JET, an American industrial equipment brand known for quality since 1958, and is built to JET’s stringent specifications with high-grade steel construction and durable hydraulics.

What Does 4-Way Entry Mean on a Pallet Truck?

4-way entry means the PT09 can pick up a pallet with fork entry from any of its four sides, rather than only the two long sides. That includes CHEP pallets, the common blue NZ pallet, so you can approach a load from whichever side suits your aisle without turning the pallet around. Note that “4-way” describes pallet entry, not sideways travel.

JET PT09 Pallet Truck FAQs

Is the JET PT09 Made in the USA?

JET is an American industrial equipment brand, known for quality since it was founded in 1958. The pallet trucks themselves are built to JET’s stringent specifications through a global supply chain, rather than manufactured in the USA. You get JET’s engineering standards plus a complete range of spare parts for easy servicing here in NZ.

Pallet Truck or Pallet Jack, What’s the Difference?

None. “Pallet truck” and “pallet jack” are two names for the same machine. The JET PT09 is a hand pallet truck: you pump the handle to raise a load on the forks, wheel it into place, then lower it with the three-position fingertip control lever. Both terms describe this manually operated lifting trolley.

Will the PT09 Fit CHEP Pallets?

Yes. The PT09 has 4-way entry, so it picks up pallets with fork entry from all four sides, CHEP pallets included. Its 1150mm forks and 150mm fork width suit standard pallets, and you can enter from any direction without repositioning the load.

What Size Pallet Truck Do I Need?

It comes down to load weight, pallet type and your workspace. The JET PT09 carries up to 2500kg, its 4-way entry suits CHEP and standard pallets, and at 540mm wide with a 55mm lowered height it works in tight aisles. If you move heavier or powered loads, the Rex electric pallet truck is worth a look.
