Cantilever racks have arms beamed from posts so it's very helpful to be able to systematize a depot, timber yard or perhaps a factory.  It is ideal for storing lengthy, narrow products like furniture, lintels, bar, tube and pipes of steel.  It offers immediate access to materials and could be refashioned to match the requirements of the consumer.  The cantilever rack system generally includes some kinds of attached decks to eliminate damages that occur throughout usage.

These racks are produced from welded steel for that highest load holding capacity along with a sturdy foundation.  It's tapered to make up for column deflection, galvanized for exterior applications and pre-punched on sides for conversion from single to double-sided rack unit.

Cantilever rack system is composed of three parts: uprights, arms, and brace sets.
  • The uprights are sturdy using its column and base each attached to respective column.  They have to in no way be fixed to walls or any other objects.
  • The arms could be straight for storing steady weights or inclined for storing round objects.  Standard color utilized on the arm is gray could be arranged to complement the upright both on the top and at the end.
  • The brace sets must fit the length and also the width from the cantilevers' arms for correct support.  These shelves are produced based on the depth, length, height and weight of an item being stored.

The amount of arms and spacing between the arms, its length, and height from the upright and length of the brace determines the space for storage of those shelves.  With cantilever racking, we are able to organize the items well to ensure that they are more accessible and could be handled faster causing them to be inexpensive.  To be able to load or unload, the racks standard or side-loading forklifts are utilized.  The cantilever rack system enhances safety, maximizes space for storage and may carry a lot of products which are bulky in character.  These arms of those racks could be on either sides either fixed or adjustable, in some instances even detachable having a height of approximately 10m.

A cantilever rack system uses space for storage realistically by continuing to keep all of the stores without touching the floor and provides the bottom of the rack for more use.  Its flexibility could be customized to match the requirements of the customers as each kind of product could be segregated by product and measurement.
