RECORD ITBC12H Counterbalance Stacker
High-performance electric stacker for versatile pallet handling
Also available in the ITBC16H model, with a 1600kg load capacity
 
Product Information
 
The RECORD ITBC12H Counterbalance Stacker is a powerful and compact electric stacker designed for handling a wide range of pallet types — including both open and closed-boarded pallets — without the need for straddle legs. With a load capacity of 1200kg, this machine is the ideal choice for warehouses, production facilities, retail distribution centres, and environments where space is at a premium but performance cannot be compromised.
 
Unlike traditional stackers, counterbalance stackers are built with a weighted chassis to balance loads without support legs, functioning more like a forklift truck but with a more compact footprint and easier manoeuvrability. This allows operators to work more freely around pallets, especially where ground clearance or pallet type limits access with standard stackers.

Why Choose a Counterbalance Stacker?
Counterbalance stackers combine the best of both worlds — offering the lifting capability of a forklift truck and the compact agility of a pedestrian stacker. Without straddle legs, they’re particularly well-suited to working with all pallet types, including those without bottom gaps, unlike standard stackers that rely on straddle legs to reach under loads. This makes them a versatile and smart solution for mixed pallet operations or areas with varied racking and pallet systems.
