The invention relates to an industrial truck (10) having a load displacement device (12, 14, 16, 18) which comprises two device parts (12, 14, 19, 20), which can be substantially displaced relative to one another along a displacement axis (V), and at least one piston/cylinder system (30, 60) for the purpose of providing a force required for a relative displacement of the device parts (12, 14, 19, 20), a piston (32) of the piston/cylinder system (30, 60) being connected to one of the device parts (14, 20), and a cylinder (34, 64) of the piston/cylinder system (30, 60) being connected to the respective other one of the device parts (12, 19). According to the invention, the cylinder (34, 64) is rigidly connected to the device part (12, 19) associated with it such that torques acting about a torsion axis (T) extending in the cylinder longitudinal direction (L, L′) and/or tensile and/or compression forces acting substantially in the cylinder longitudinal direction (L, L′) and/or bending moments acting about a bending axis (W, W′) extending substantially orthogonally with respect to the cylinder longitudinal direction (L, L′) can be transmitted from the device part (12, 19) at least to a longitudinal section (34b) of the cylinder (34, 64), in particular of the cylinder casing.
