Quick Overview

Long material is awkward material. Bar stock, piping, extrusions, angles and panels are too long for a normal cart, too wide for a comfortable forklift run and too valuable to swing overhead on a crane. EK Tech motorized long deck carts solve that by putting the whole length on one powered deck and letting a single operator walk it to the next station. Capacities run up to 5,000 lb, and higher payloads are available with dual drive systems.

The reason these carts work in a tight plant is that they pivot around the center of the cart rather than swinging the whole length around a corner. That is the extra maneuverability long loads need to get through a doorway or down a packed aisle. Deck lengths have typically been 12 to 18 feet on the builds EK Tech has delivered, and the factory asks the obvious question back, which is how long do you actually need to go.

Hand controls are placed where the work happens. You choose the left side, the right side, the front, the back, or dual controls, and because the handlebar usually sits off to one side the load can overhang both ends of the deck. Controls at both ends are worth asking for when there is nowhere to turn around, since the operator simply walks to the other end and drives back. Frames are welded, and stainless steel frames are available along with finishes for harsh environments and colors matched to your plant.

The deck itself is built around what rides on it. Choose plate steel, wood or diamond steel, have it pre drilled to your dimensions, and add removable posts or rails to hold material on top, custom cradles to support large diameter loads, shelving units, or powered and non powered conveyors mounted on the deck. Every long deck cart is a custom unit based on standard designs, which keeps the cost sensible, and it is quoted to your build. For shorter loads see the Pony Express 1031 platform cart, and for much heavier ones see the Pony Express AC Vector cart.

How much can a long deck cart carry?

EK Tech rates the line at up to 5,000 lb, and higher capacities are available with dual drive systems. Because the deck is built around your material, the factory sets the final rating once it knows the weight, the length and how that weight is spread along the deck.

How long can the deck be?

Typical decks have run 12 to 18 feet. EK Tech builds these as custom units on standard designs, so a longer deck is a conversation rather than a no. Tell us the longest piece you move and the tightest turn it has to make and we take both to the factory.

Where do the hand controls go?

Left side, right side, front, back or dual. The handlebar is usually mounted off to one side so material can overhang both ends of the deck. If there is no turn around area on your route, ask for controls at both ends and the operator just walks to the other end and drives back.

Frequently Asked Questions

How heavy a load will a Pony Express long deck cart carry?

Up to 5,000 lb as standard, and higher with dual drive systems. Since the deck is built for your material, the factory confirms the rating once it knows the weight, the length of the piece and how the load sits along the deck.

How long can the deck be?

Typical builds have run 12 to 18 feet. EK Tech treats deck size as a custom parameter on a standard design, so longer decks are quoted on request. The practical limit is usually your aisles and doorways rather than the cart.

How does a cart this long get around corners?

It pivots around the center of the cart, so the ends swing rather than the whole length being dragged around the turn. That is what gives a long deck cart the maneuverability a forklift with a wide load does not have.

Can I keep the material from rolling or sliding off?

Yes. Removable posts or rails hold material on top of the platform, custom cradles support large diameter loads like pipe and coil, and shelving units can be built in. Powered or non powered conveyors can also be mounted on the deck when material has to move off the end.

How do I get a price on a custom long deck cart?

Call us toll free at 1-888-233-5563 or use our contact form with the length and weight of your material, the deck top you want and the tightest turn on the route. We take it to the EK Tech engineering team in Germantown Wisconsin and come back with a written quote.

Does Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance help pay for the Pony Express Custom Long Deck Cart?

Material handling equipment like the Pony Express Custom Long Deck Cart does not meet the medical device rules that Medicare and Medicaid use, so it does not qualify for coverage. We do not work with Medicare and we do not bill private insurance directly.

Notice to Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. Medicare pays for equipment only when the supplier has a Medicare supplier number. Heavy Duty Mobility does not have one, so Medicare will not pay for anything we sell you. You are personally and fully responsible for payment.

Shipping, Warranty & Returns

Shipping

How long until my Pony Express Custom Long Deck Cart arrives?

Each unit ships by freight carrier on a skid from the EK Tech factory in Wisconsin. Once your order is confirmed we give you the current factory lead time with your quote, and transit typically adds three to seven business days depending on your distance. We coordinate dock delivery or liftgate service with you when the build is scheduled.

Will I get tracking?

Yes. As soon as your unit ships we email you a tracking link so you can follow it all the way to your dock.

Warranty

How long is the warranty on the Pony Express Custom Long Deck Cart? What is included and excluded?

The Pony Express Custom Long Deck Cart carries the Electro Kinetic Technologies limited warranty on the frame and drive system, with the exact term confirmed on your quote. It does not cover service or transportation costs, normal wear items, damage from misuse, unauthorized work or modifications, or outdoor storage. Shipping damage and incidental damages are also not covered. The warranty is valid for the original buyer with a sales receipt, and any warranty changes need approval from Electro Kinetic Technologies, LLC.
