Advantages and What They Mean for Your Operation

• Propane Power: Propane forklifts are prized for fast refueling and consistent power delivery. Swap tanks in minutes and keep working without waiting for battery charging. Propane power is widely accepted for indoor use with proper ventilation, making it a great choice for high-turn environments where uptime matters.
• Cushion Tires: Cushion tires excel on smooth, finished floors such as in warehouses, retail distribution centers, and manufacturing plants. They contribute to a tight turning radius and predictable handling in aisles, staging areas, and loading zones, making the C25CL a nimble performer in confined indoor spaces.
• 5000# Capacity: A 5,000-pound rated capacity is the industry sweet spot for general-purpose material handling. From standard pallets of building materials and packaged goods to components in fabrication lines, this capacity class delivers the strength most facilities need day in and day out without sacrificing maneuverability.
• Triple Mast with 189" Lift Height: The three-stage mast provides excellent vertical reach while keeping the collapsed height lower than comparable duplex masts. With a maximum lift height of 189 inches, the C25CL can service a wide range of racking heights and dock positions, supporting efficient storage and retrieval workflows.
• 84" Collapsed Height: An 84-inch collapsed mast can help with clearance in areas where vertical space is limited, such as certain mezzanines, containers, or low-overhead storage zones. This specification gives your team flexibility to work in varied parts of your facility without constant reconfiguration.
• Side Shift: Side shift is a major productivity booster. It enables precise left-right movement of the carriage without repositioning the truck, speeding up pallet alignment in tight rack bays and minimizing product damage. This is a key feature for operators who value accuracy and speed.
• Low Hours (1085): Lower hours often correlate with less wear on major components and more remaining life. For buyers focused on long-term ROI, this is an important indicator that the forklift has considerable productive service ahead.

Applications

This used Clark C25CL propane straight mast forklift with cushion tires is optimized for indoor material handling across many industries. It’s an excellent fit for warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturing lines, assembly plants, packaging operations, food and beverage facilities, paper and printing, appliance and furniture distribution, and general logistics. The 5,000-pound capacity comfortably handles typical palletized loads, while the 189-inch lift height supports multi-tier racking and dock work. Side shift adds speed and precision for repetitive pick, place, and staging tasks—especially helpful in tight aisles or busy docks where small alignment corrections save time and reduce the risk of product damage. If your operation needs reliable, repeatable pallet handling on smooth floors, this configuration delivers.

Ownership Value

Choosing a used Clark C25CL offers cost-effective performance with the backing of a trusted brand. The combination of propane fuel, cushion tires, and a triple mast is a proven formula for indoor productivity, helping your team move more product per shift without costly interruptions. Low hours translate to more service life ahead, helping reduce your cost per hour over time. Side shift supports safer handling and less product damage by making it easier to place loads exactly where they belong. And because 5,000-pound forklifts are common in the market, you’ll find broad operator familiarity and straightforward integration into existing workflows. The result is a forklift that supports uptime, consistent throughput, and a favorable total cost of ownership.
