Cantilever Steel Racking

Industries Utilizing Cantilever Racking

Cantilever Steel Storage Racking serves multiple industries due to its ability to handle diverse types of goods:

1.     Lumber and Timber: Commonly stored items include wooden planks, beams, and sheets. Cantilever racking supports the weight and length of these materials, ensuring they remain undamaged and accessible.

2.     Metalworks: Pipes, rods, and metal sheets are stored on cantilever racks, which can handle the heavy load and varying sizes of these products.

3.     Automotive: This industry stores long vehicle parts, such as exhaust systems, bumpers, and chassis components. Cantilever racking keeps these items organized and prevents damage.

4.     Furniture: For storing items like sofas, tables, and mattresses, cantilever racking provides the flexibility needed for different shapes and sizes.

5.     Construction: Materials such as drywall, insulation sheets, and rebar are easily stored on cantilever racks, which support their irregular dimensions and heavy weights.

6.     Retail: Large retail stores use cantilever racking for displaying oversized products like carpets, rugs, and large pieces of décor.

7.     Plumbing: Pipes, tubing, and large fittings are stored efficiently, allowing for easy retrieval and inventory management.

8.     Electrical: Spools of wire, conduit, and large cable reels are common items stored on cantilever racks due to their long, bulky nature.

9.     Marine: Boat parts, sails, and masts are stored safely and securely on cantilever racks, which can accommodate their unusual shapes and sizes.

10.   Textile: Rolls of fabric, carpet, and other large materials are kept organized on these racks, preventing damage and making them easy to access.

Components of Cantilever Steel Storage Racking

A typical Cantilever Steel Storage Racking system comprises the following components:

• Uprights: The vertical columns that support the entire structure.
• Base: The foundation that anchors the racking system to the floor and supports the uprights.
• Arms: The horizontal beams extending from the uprights, where goods are placed.
• Braces: They provide lateral stability to the structure, ensuring it remains upright and secure.
• End Stops: These prevent goods from sliding off the arms, ensuring safety.
• Decking (optional): Depending on the goods stored, some racks may have decking to provide a flat surface.
