The Ideal Storage Solution for Long & Bulky Materials
Storing long materials such as pipes, bars, channels, angles, and sections can be difficult with conventional shelving and pallet racks. Cantilever Racks are specifically designed to overcome this challenge.
Their open-front design provides easy access to long and irregularly shaped materials while making efficient use of available warehouse space.
What Makes Cantilever Racks Different?
Unlike conventional racks, cantilever racks use vertical columns with horizontal arms extending outward. Since there are no front columns obstructing the storage area, long materials can be loaded and unloaded easily.
Materials Suitable for Cantilever Racks
Cantilever systems are commonly used for:
Single-Sided vs Double-Sided
Single-Sided Cantilever Rack
Single-sided racks are generally installed against a wall or at the edge of a storage area. Materials can be loaded and retrieved from one side.
Double-Sided Cantilever Rack
Double-sided racks provide storage on both sides of the upright structure. They are suitable for centrally located storage areas and provide greater storage density.
Key Benefits
Easy Accessibility: Open-front construction provides convenient access to long materials.
Space Saving: Vertical storage reduces dependence on floor stacking.
Flexible Storage: Adjustable arms allow different material sizes to be accommodated.
Better Organization: Materials can be separated according to size, type, or application.
Improved Safety: Organized storage reduces uncontrolled floor stacking and material clutter.
Load Capacity
Cantilever racks can be designed for different load requirements. Depending on the configuration, arm capacities may include: 300 kg | 500 kg | 750 kg | 1000 kg per arm
The actual capacity should be determined based on rack dimensions, material weight, arm configuration, and engineering requirements.
