Product Overview
The Milwaukee Hand Truck Aluminum Convertible Hand Truck, Model 45136, is a versatile 2-in-1 material-handling solution designed to move heavy and bulky loads with less effort. Its lightweight aluminum frame allows the truck to remain easy to maneuver while providing a substantial load capacity for professional delivery, warehouse, moving, and commercial applications.
The truck quickly converts from a two-wheel vertical hand truck to a four-wheel platform cart, giving users more flexibility when transporting different types of loads. A convenient foot-release mechanism eliminates the need for hitch pins during conversion.
With a load rating of 800 lb in the vertical position and 1,000 lb in the horizontal platform position, the 45136 is built for demanding material-handling jobs. Its 10-inch pneumatic tires help cushion loads over uneven surfaces, while 5-inch swivel casters improve maneuverability when the truck is used as a platform cart.

2-In-1 Convertible Design
The 45136 is designed to perform two material-handling functions in one truck. In its upright configuration, it operates as a conventional two-wheel hand truck, allowing users to tilt and maneuver loads.
When additional load support is needed, the truck can be converted into a four-wheel horizontal platform cart. Milwaukee specifies a higher 1,000 lb capacity in this configuration.
This convertible design is particularly useful for businesses that handle different load shapes and sizes throughout the day. Rather than maintaining separate hand trucks and platform carts, one unit can provide both functions.
Easy Foot-Release Conversion
Changing configurations is designed to be straightforward. The 45136 uses a foot-release latch, so users do not need to deal with separate hitch pins when converting the truck.
The foot-operated release allows the operator to keep both hands available for controlling the truck and load during the conversion process. Milwaukee specifically highlights the no-hitch-pin design as one of the truck's advantages.
Lightweight Aluminum Construction
The frame is constructed from aluminum, providing a combination of low weight and durability. At approximately 39 lb, the truck is substantially easier to handle and reposition than many heavier steel-frame alternatives while still offering a high load rating.
The aluminum construction makes the 45136 a practical option for delivery personnel and other professionals who repeatedly load, unload, and reposition their equipment throughout the workday.
800 lb Vertical Capacity
In the standard two-wheel configuration, the Milwaukee 45136 supports loads up to 800 lb.
The upright configuration is useful for tall or narrow items that are best moved while resting against the hand truck frame. Properly balancing and securing the load remains important, particularly when handling heavy or awkwardly shaped items.
1,000 lb Platform Capacity
After conversion to the four-wheel platform configuration, the truck's rated capacity increases to 1,000 lb.
The platform configuration distributes the load across four contact points, making it useful for transporting larger, heavier, or less stable items that are not well suited to an upright two-wheel position.
10-Inch Pneumatic Tires
The main wheels measure 10 inches and use pneumatic tires. Milwaukee describes these tires as helping cushion the load when traveling over uneven surfaces.
The wheels feature steel hubs and 5/8-inch ball bearings, providing a durable wheel assembly for regular material-handling use.
Because the tires are pneumatic, users should maintain appropriate tire pressure and inspect them regularly as part of normal equipment maintenance.
5-Inch Swivel Casters
When configured as a platform cart, the truck uses 5-inch swivel casters. Their swivel action allows the platform to be repositioned and steered more easily in confined areas.
The casters use TPR plastic tires and are specified as 5 x 1-1/4 inches.
This combination of pneumatic main wheels and swivel casters provides the 45136 with a balance of load support and maneuverability.
Large Beveled Toe Plate
The truck features an 8 x 18-inch beveled toe plate. Its wide profile provides a substantial base for supporting boxes, equipment, appliances, and other bulky items.
The beveled design helps position loads onto the toe plate while keeping the front profile suitable for maneuvering under or alongside items.
12 x 38-Inch Platform
In four-wheel configuration, the truck provides a 12 x 38-inch platform. This longer load surface is useful when transporting larger objects that need more support than the standard toe plate provides.
The platform configuration is particularly useful for boxes, equipment, containers, and other loads that can be transported horizontally.
Twin-Pin Handle
The 45136 uses a twin-pin handle configuration, providing two hand positions for controlling the truck. The handle design complements the convertible frame and gives the operator multiple points of contact when maneuvering a load.
The twin-pin handle is also part of the truck's modular aluminum construction.
Typical Applications
The Milwaukee 45136 is suitable for a variety of professional and commercial material-handling tasks, including:
Appliance and equipment delivery
Warehouse transportation
Moving and relocation services
Distribution and logistics
Commercial deliveries
Contractor material handling
Loading and unloading operations
Transporting large boxes and containers
General-purpose warehouse and facility work
Ideal for Delivery Professionals
The combination of aluminum construction, high load capacity, pneumatic tires, and convertible operation makes the 45136 especially practical for delivery environments.
The truck can be used upright when moving a tall load and then converted into a platform cart when a horizontal load position provides better stability or support. Milwaukee specifically describes this aluminum convertible design as popular with delivery drivers and professional users.
Dimensions and Weight
The main physical specifications are:
Height: 51-3/4 inches
Width: 21-1/4 inches
Depth: 19 inches
Toe Plate: 8 x 18 inches
Platform: 12 x 38 inches
Weight: 39 lb
The relatively low 39 lb product weight is a useful advantage when the truck itself must frequently be loaded into vehicles, repositioned, or stored between jobs.
Package Contents
The package includes:
1 × Milwaukee Aluminum Convertible Hand Truck, Model 45136
The truck is listed as requiring no assembly.
Important Usage Considerations
The stated load capacities depend on the truck's configuration:
Two-wheel vertical position: Maximum 800 lb
Four-wheel horizontal platform position: Maximum 1,000 lb
Do not exceed the rated capacity for the configuration being used. Loads should be centered and positioned securely on the toe plate or platform. When transporting heavy or awkward items, take into account the load's size, center of gravity, surface conditions, and route.
Because the main tires are pneumatic, inspect them and maintain appropriate inflation before use.
Why Choose the Milwaukee 45136?
The Milwaukee Hand Truck Aluminum Convertible Hand Truck 45136 combines the convenience of a traditional hand truck with the added versatility of a four-wheel platform cart.
