Maersk has ordered a 36,000lb (16.3 tonne) Hoist P-Series pneumatic forklift for its Terminal Island, California facility.

The P360 will be built on a 115-inch (2.9-metre) wheelbase with a 36-inch (0.9-metre) load centre and feature among other things a Cummins 6.7L turbocharged diesel engine, a Dana 32,000 automatic transmission, AxleTech heavy-duty drive axle and wet disc brakes.

The order comes in the wake of Jones Stevedoring Company's purchase of two 80,000lb (36.3 tonne) P-Series pneumatic forklifts for its Portland location. The P800s will be the largest Hoist pneumatic forklift with a 170-inch (4.3-metre) wheelbase and 48-inch (1.2-metre) load centre. The forklifts will have the same features as Maersk's P360 but will be powered by a Cummins QSM11 diesel engine and have a removable counterweight.
