About This Family
Where a sack truck needs the load to tilt, a platform truck carries it flat. Four casters take the weight, the deck stays level, and the operator pushes rather than balances.
The PH3 series is published with deck size, rated load, own weight and caster diameter, which is the set of figures you need to check a truck against an aisle width and a floor.
What Goes Wrong Without the Right Platform Hand Truck
Problem 1
Flat or awkward loads slide off a two-wheel truck and have to be carried instead.
Problem 2
Small casters catch on floor joints and door thresholds and stop the truck dead.
Problem 3
Decks that are too small for the pallet footprint force double handling.
Buyers This Family Is Built Around
Warehouse and production floors
Moving cartons, totes and part-assemblies between cells without starting a forklift.
Print, packaging and paper
Flat stock and reams that must stay flat and supported across the whole sheet.
Facilities and maintenance teams
Tools, spares and equipment moved across large buildings by one person.
What the Published Specification Gives You
Rated load and own weight both listed
Every model publishes its own weight next to its rated load, so you can judge how the truck handles empty as well as full.
Caster diameter published
Caster size is stated per model — larger casters roll over floor joints and cable covers that stop a small wheel.
Deck dimensions in full
Deck length and width are given so the truck can be checked against your carton or tote footprint before ordering.
Caster range available separately
The caster categories on this site cover light, heavy and extra heavy duty units if a deck needs to be re-wheeled.
Where These Are Used
Order picking
Multi-carton picks moved to the pack bench in one trip.
Machine shop and assembly
Work in progress between stations on a level deck.
Stores and archives
Boxed records and stock moved through long corridors.
Venue and facility operations
Chairs, staging and equipment moved across hard floors.
How to Choose Within This Family
- Match the deck to the largest single item you carry, then check the aisle — a longer deck turns worse in a tight bay.
- Bigger casters roll better over joints and thresholds but raise the deck height, which matters if items are lifted on and off repeatedly.
- Check whether your floor is sealed concrete, tile or epoxy before choosing a wheel material; hard wheels mark soft floors.
What is not published
Minimum order quantity, lead time, payment terms, warranty and certifications are not published by Renwei, so none of them are stated on this site. Ask for them in writing with your model list before you plan a shipment.

Platform Hand Truck Questions
What caster size do the platform trucks use?
Caster diameter is published per model in the specification table — 6 inch on several models in the PH3 series. Replacement casters can be matched from the caster categories on this site.
What is the load capacity of a platform hand truck?
Rated load is listed model by model; several PH3 models are published at 300kg. Use the published figure rather than a series-wide number.
Can the handle be removed for shipping?
Handle and packing arrangements affect how many units fit a container. Send the model number and ask for the packing and loading quantity before you confirm an order.
Which is better for my job, a platform truck or a hand truck?
A hand truck suits stacked or boxed loads that can be tilted onto an axle. A platform truck suits flat, wide or unstable loads that need to stay level. Many operations buy both and standardise the wheel size across them.
