Cantilever rack is the perfect storage equipment for stowing outsized, elongated or odd sized products like flooring rolls, plywood or lumber. It allows you to store oversized goods in a more efficient manner and in much larger quantities.

While nearly all products flow through the supply chain on ordinary pallets, there are quite a few outliers. For many manufacturers, there are some products that just can’t possibly fit on a standard pallet. Whether it’s gypsum board, lumber, bar stock, furniture or other items that are bulky, long or non-uniform in shape, certain items are just difficult to store.

Cantilever rack is the answer to this dilemma. It allows you to store awkward goods in less space and in greater amounts. Rather than stacking items in a storage yard or on a warehouse floor, you can take advantage of vertical space.

Using vertical storage also permits you to inventory a broader variety of products, as you can just retrieve an item off of a cantilever tier in place of maintaining different stacks of individual products.

Heavy Duty Cantilever Rack

Cantilever style racks are not at all like standard pallet racks. Cantilever is anchored with a steel foot that is fastened to an upright steel beam. The vertical pillar has perpendicular arms attached to store goods. Cantilever racks can support an extraordinary amount of weight. Many cantilever systems can maintain loads of nearly 20,000 lbs per arm.

Single Sided Cantilever Rack vs Double Sided

Almost all cantilever solutions provide variations for single sided racking to be stationed near walls, and two sided cantilever that can be arranged in aisles.

A key advantage to cantilever rack is its capacity to be readily reconfigured. In the event your needs change, you can easily change row sections and heights.

A supplementary advantage is that the open design of cantilever rack permits your lift trucks easy access to products that are generally tricky to manage. As an added benefit, open racks enable increased visibility, allowing workers to locate products without any problem.

Cantilever Racks For Specific Industries

While many industries have a handful of large or bulky types of items, there are some types of businesses that use cantilever rack extensively:

• Construction: wood, drywall, metal or plastic piping and plywood are just a few construction materials that are awkward and troublesome to store.
• Production: many manufacturing operations use steel tubing, bar stock, sheet metal or plate steel and other long or oversized materials in their assembly processes.
• Oil & Gas: the oil industry uses a lot of drilling equipment, piping and steel stock.
• Home Furnishings: roll carpeting, flooring, stone slabs and larger pieces of furniture are all good examples of bulky, unwieldy products that are challenging to store.
