Pallet racks, also known as stacking racks, are a common type of warehouse shelving primarily used for stacking and storing goods. Their design and use can significantly improve warehouse efficiency, reduce damage to goods during transportation and storage, and ensure the safety of goods. The following are some detailed specifications about pallet racks.
Basic Information about Pallet Racks
Pallet racks come in various dimensions, with common sizes including 1000(W) x 1000(D) x 1100(H), 1000(W) x 1200(D) x 1100(H), 1100(W) x 1100(D) x 1200(H), 1200(W) x 800(D) x 1200(H), and 1200(W) x 1200(D) x 1250(H), among others. Pallet racks can be stacked 3-4 layers high and have a maximum load capacity of 1500kg. The advantages of stacking racks include the ability to be freely placed according to site conditions, standardized specifications, fixed capacity, clear visibility of stored items, ease of warehouse inventory, compatibility with 1210 or 1310 pallets, and the ability for forklifts to access from all four sides. They have a wide range of applications and can be used in conjunction with mechanized handling equipment for transportation, loading/unloading, storage, and other processes. They can be stacked to maximize space utilization.
Application Sites for Pallet Racks
Pallet racks have a wide range of application sites, including cold storage facilities and low-ceilinged old warehouses. In some special sites, such as leased warehouses, low-ceilinged old warehouses, or temporary storage areas in workshops—where investing in a warehouse is not feasible—pallet racks can fully leverage their advantages. Pallet racks can be applied in the apparel industry for the turnover and storage of fabrics and textiles.
Features of Pallet Racking Systems
The features of pallet racking systems include standardized specifications, fixed capacity, clear visibility of stored goods, and ease of inventory counting in warehouses. Shelving units can be stacked on top of each other to achieve three-dimensional storage, easily forming three-dimensional storage capabilities without the need for additional equipment. Fixed stacking racks, also known as stacking racks, are more stable and have greater load-bearing capacity compared to foldable stacking racks. Stacking racks can be folded and stacked, featuring rust resistance and strong corrosion resistance, making them suitable for a wide range of applications.
