Handle It SH-FA-6000 High-Capacity Stretch Hooder | 280+ Pallets/Hour | Largest Load Capacity

The Handle It SH-FA-6000 is Handle It's highest-capacity stretch hooder, engineered for demanding, high-volume production environments where throughput and load size variety are the primary requirements. With a capacity of 280+ pallets per hour — the fastest in the SH lineup — and a maximum pallet size of 3,600 x 2,500 mm (141" x 98"), the SH-6000 handles the largest loads and the highest production rates in Handle It's patented stretch hooding system.

Like all SH series machines, the SH-6000 delivers 5–6 sided pallet protection using elastic stretch hood film that applies both vertical and horizontal clamping force — no heat, no gas emissions, and up to 50% lower energy consumption than traditional shrink film systems.
