HUBTEX FluX 45 Electric Multidirectional Counterbalance Forklift Buy in UAE | Al Shirawi Enterprises
The HUBTEX FluX 45 is the UAE’s most capable compact electric multidirectional counterbalance forklift a genuine 2-in-1 machine that delivers 4,500 kg of rated lift capacity combined with the agility to handle long goods sideways through narrow warehouse doors and aisles without stopping or repositioning. Replacing its predecessor with a platform that is 14 percent more compact yet stronger, the FluX 45 sets a new benchmark in its class for load capacity, manoeuvrability, and operating economy. Its patented 360° HX continuous steering system enables seamless transitions between longitudinal and transverse travel in motion, while its fixed lift mast with tilt function allows it to load and unload trucks exactly like a conventional counterbalance front loader. Large elastic tyres, high ground clearance, all-wheel drive, and an optional outdoor cabin make it equally effective across indoor warehouse floors and outdoor yard surfaces. For UAE and GCC businesses in building materials, manufacturing, plant engineering, steel, and logistics that regularly handle both pallets and long loads — but cannot justify the cost of two separate machines — the FluX 45 is the definitive single-truck solution. Al Shirawi Enterprises is the authorised HUBTEX dealer in the UAE, providing complete sales, commissioning, genuine OEM parts, and 24/7 technical support across the region.

Warehouse managers, manufacturing directors, and logistics operators across the UAE and GCC choose the HUBTEX FluX 45 because it is the highest-capacity compact multidirectional counterbalance forklift in its class and the only machine that eliminates the need to choose between a conventional front loader and a long-goods sideloader. Here’s why:
The FluX 45 delivers a rated capacity of 4,500 kg — 50% more than the FluX 30 — in a platform that is 14% more compact than its predecessor. This combination of increased strength and reduced footprint makes it the right choice for UAE operations handling heavier pallet loads, dense building materials, steel fabrications, plant components, and structural elements that exceed the limits of standard 3-tonne electric forklifts. Manufacturers benefit from excellent residual load capacity at elevation, supporting efficient racking and high-bay stacking operations.
Operations that regularly move both standard pallets and long goods in the same facility traditionally required two vehicles — a conventional counterbalance forklift and a dedicated sideloader. The FluX 45 eliminates this duplication. Its fixed mast with tilt function enables full front-loader performance for pallet handling and truck loading, while its patented 360° HX steering seamlessly switches to sideloader mode for lateral long-goods transport — all in one compact, electrically powered machine. One investment. One operator. One maintenance programme. Significantly lower total cost of ownership.
The FluX 45’s patented HX steering system is the most advanced multidirectional steering technology available in a counterbalance forklift. Unlike competing trucks that must stop and re-select a travel direction before moving sideways, the FluX 45 transitions fluidly from longitudinal to transverse travel — or any angle in between — while still in motion. This continuous steering capability reduces cycle times on every long-goods handling task, minimises wheel wear, and eliminates the fiddly repositioning manoeuvres that slow throughput in busy UAE warehouse environments.
The second-generation FluX 45 is 14% shorter than the model it replaces, yet delivers greater load capacity. This reduction in frame length directly translates to smaller turning radii, better aisle performance, and the ability to manoeuvre comfortably in building centres, manufacturing plants, and logistics facilities where floor space is at a premium — typical of many UAE and GCC industrial estates and warehousing zones.
HUBTEX specifically engineered the FluX 45 for combined indoor and outdoor use. Larger tyres, increased ground clearance, and all-wheel drive allow the truck to transition confidently between smooth internal warehouse floors and outdoor asphalt yard areas, loading docks, and external storage zones. An optional enclosed outdoor cabin provides full weather and climate protection for operators working extended shifts in UAE ambient temperatures — making the FluX 45 a year-round solution for UAE outdoor logistics yards.
The FluX 45’s fixed lift mast with ±5° tilt function enables it to perform truck loading, unloading, and racking operations with the same effectiveness as a dedicated counterbalance front loader. This means drivers familiar with conventional forklifts will find the FluX 45 immediately intuitive — no retraining barrier, no productivity dip during adoption. The compact mast design simultaneously maximises operator visibility over and around the load during all lifting and placement tasks.
The centrally positioned operator cab provides unrivalled all-round visibility, with slim pillars and large windows eliminating blind spots in all travel directions. The low entry height, adjustable steering column, ergonomic multifunctional joystick, and optional air-suspended seat ensure operator comfort across long operating shifts — directly reducing fatigue-related safety risks and maintaining productivity throughout UAE warehouse working hours.
The FluX 45’s powerful three-phase AC electric drive is zero tailpipe emission, low-noise, and low-maintenance — ideal for enclosed UAE warehouses, temperature-controlled facilities, and operations with strict indoor air quality or noise requirements. The 72V battery system supports full-shift operation, and a lithium-ion battery option enables rapid opportunity charging during breaks to support multi-shift and round-the-clock operations.

Industries and operations where the HUBTEX FluX 45 Electric Multidirectional Counterbalance Forklift excels in the UAE:
The FluX 45 is the machine of choice for UAE and GCC operations that primarily handle palletised loads — but regularly need to move long, heavy, or bulky goods laterally in confined spaces where a dedicated sideloader alone cannot be economically justified. With 4,500 kg capacity and a frame 14% more compact than its predecessor, it brings heavy-duty multidirectional performance to building material centres, manufacturing plants, steel processors, and logistics facilities across the UAE that previously relied on two separate vehicles. Its safety advantage over conventional forklifts handling long goods is significant — eliminating the unstable, accident-prone practice of carrying long loads longitudinally on standard forks.

The HUBTEX FluX 45 is a 4.5-tonne electric forklift that combines the capabilities of a conventional counterbalance front loader and a multidirectional long-goods sideloader in a single compact 3-wheel platform. Its patented 360° HX continuous steering system allows seamless direction changes in motion, while its fixed mast with tilt enables truck loading and rack stacking identical to a standard forklift. It is designed for operations that primarily handle pallets but regularly need to transport long goods laterally through narrow aisles or doorways.
The FluX 45 delivers 4,500 kg of rated capacity — 50% more than the FluX 30’s 3,000 kg — making it the right choice for heavier pallet loads and denser long goods. It operates on a 72V battery system compared to the FluX 30’s 48V, supporting its higher power demands. Both models share the same patented HX steering, 7,500mm maximum lift height, fixed mast with tilt, and 2-in-1 forklift-plus-sideloader functionality. The FluX 45 is also the newer generation platform, with a 14% reduction in frame length versus its predecessor.
The FluX 45 has a maximum rated capacity of 4,500 kg at the centre of gravity and a maximum lift height of 7,500 mm with a Triplex mast. Simplex and Duplex mast options are also available for applications with different height requirements and visibility priorities.
Yes. The FluX 45 was specifically developed for combined indoor and outdoor operations. Larger elastic tyres, increased ground clearance, and all-wheel drive handle transitions between warehouse floors and outdoor asphalt or paved yard surfaces effectively. An optional enclosed outdoor cabin provides full protection for operators in warm UAE ambient temperatures, making it a practical year-round solution for UAE industrial yard environments.
The HX continuous steering system allows the FluX 45 to transition between forward/reverse travel and lateral sideloader travel while in motion — without stopping. In a typical UAE warehouse with multiple direction changes per cycle, this saves significant time on every long-goods handling task, reduces queue time at aisle entries, and cuts tyre wear versus conventional stop-and-steer multidirectional systems. The result is higher throughput from fewer machines.
The FluX 45 uses a 72V battery system as standard. A lithium-ion battery option is available for facilities requiring rapid opportunity charging during shift breaks, supporting demanding multi-shift or round-the-clock UAE warehouse operations without the need for battery change logistics.
