Cantilever rack is the perfect solution for stocking big, lengthy or non-standard products like carpet rolls, sheet rock or lumber. It permits you to store bulky products with greater efficiency and in far greater quantities.

While the vast majority of products pass through warehouses on conventional pallets, there are quite a few outliers. For many manufacturers, there are certain items that just won’t fit on a standard pallet. Whether it’s gypsum board, building materials, bar stock, carpeting or something else that’s bulky, long or non-uniform in shape, some products are just difficult to store.

Cantilever rack solves this problem. It allows you to store unwieldly items more efficiently and in greater quantities. Rather than stacking goods on a warehouse floor or in a storage yard, you can take advantage of vertical space.

Vertical storage can also enable you to stock a greater assortment of goods, as you can easily pick a product off of a cantilever row instead of maintaining different stacks of individual products.

Heavy Duty Cantilever Rack

Cantilever style racks are quite distinct from ordinary pallet racking. Cantilever is supported by a steel foundation that is fastened to a vertical steel beam. The vertical pillar has horizontal arms mounted at different levels to store items. This cantilever configuration can support an astonishing amount of weight. Certain cantilever configurations can hold loads of up to 20,000 lbs per arm.

Single Sided Cantilever Rack vs Double Sided

Most cantilever storage systems have choices for one sided cantilever to be stationed near walls, and two sided racking that can be configured in aisles.

An important advantage to cantilever rack is its ability to be freely adjusted. In the event your needs change, you can easily modify arm heights and sections.

Another convenience is that the open layout of cantilever rack gives your lift trucks free reach to products that are sometimes challenging to handle. In addition, having open racks provides for improved visibility, allowing workers to locate products quickly and easily.

Industries Where Cantilever Racks Are Used

Although most types of businesses have some long or bulky sorts of items, there are a few industries that predominantly use cantilever rack:

• Building Supply: wood, drywall, metal or plastic piping and plywood sheets are some construction materials that are awkward and difficult to store.
• Production: lots of fabrication operations use steel bar stock, tubing, steel plate and other long or bulky materials in their production processes.
• Energy: the oil industry uses a lot of drilling equipment, piping and steel stock.
