Cantilever rack is the ideal storage equipment for storing big, elongated or non-standard items like carpet rolls, sheet rock or pipe. It enables you to store bulky items in a more efficient manner and in much larger quantities.

While nearly all products move through warehouses on conventional pallets, there are several exceptions. In many situations, there are a few items that simply can’t possibly fit on a standard pallet. Whether it’s sheetrock, building materials, steel goods, furniture or something else that’s bulky, long or oddly shaped, certain goods are just difficult to find a place for.

Cantilever rack solves this problem. It permits you to stock unwieldly items in less space and in larger quantities. Instead of simply stacking products on a warehouse floor or in a storage yard, you can take advantage of vertical space.

Vertical storage can also enable you to maintain a larger selection of items, since you can easily pick a product off of a cantilever row instead of maintaining individual stacks of specific products.

Heavy Duty Cantilever Rack

Cantilever racking is far different than typical pallet racks. Cantilever is supported by a steel base that is mounted to a vertical steel beam. The beam has horizontal arms attached to store items. This cantilever configuration can support an extraordinary amount of weight. Certain cantilever configurations can support loads of up to 20,000 lbs per level.

Single Sided Cantilever Rack vs Double Sided

Most cantilever solutions provide options for single sided cantilever to be stationed near walls, and two sided racking that can be configured in aisles.

One major advantage to cantilever rack is its ability to be freely adjusted. As your business requirements fluctuate, you can easily readjust arm heights and sections.

An additional convenience is that the open configuration of cantilever rack permits your forklifts unfettered access to items that are generally tricky to manage. Additionally, an open racking structure permits improved visibility, allowing workers to locate items rapidly and efficiently.

Cantilever Racks For Specific Industries

While many industrial categories have a handful of long or bulky sorts of goods, there are some industries that use cantilever rack extensively:

• Construction: wood, drywall, metal or plastic piping and plywood are just a few building materials that are awkward and difficult to store.
• Production: lots of fabrication businesses use steel tube and bar stock, steel plate and other long or oversized materials in their production processes.
• Energy: the petroleum industry has requirements to store drilling equipment, piping and steel stock.
• Household Goods: carpeting, flooring materials, countertop slabs and larger pieces of furniture are all good examples of bulky, awkward products that are difficult to store.
