Cantilever Rack

Here are the main types of cantilever steel racks:

1. Single-Sided

Design: Arms extend from one side of the upright column.

Application: Suitable for areas where storage is only required on one side, such as against a wall.

Advantages: Saves floor space on one side while providing sufficient storage capacity on the other.

Use Cases: Warehouses with limited space or when storage is needed along a wall or boundary.

2. Double-Sided

Design: Arms extend from both sides of the upright column.

Application: Ideal for maximizing storage in the center of a warehouse.

Advantages: Doubles the storage capacity compared to single-sided racks, as it provides access from both sides.

Use Cases: Open warehouse spaces where aisles can be used on both sides of the rack.

3. Light-Duty

Design: Designed to hold lighter materials, such as PVC pipes, lightweight aluminum, or trim boards.

Application: Used when the load requirements are lighter or for storing smaller quantities.

Advantages: Cost-effective and easy to install.

Use Cases: Retail stores or warehouses with lighter inventory.

4. Medium-Duty

Design: Built for moderately heavy loads.

Application: Ideal for storage of items like wood, steel tubing, or plastic piping.

Advantages: Offers a balance between weight capacity and cost, versatile for mid-range storage needs.

Use Cases: General-purpose warehouses or construction material depots.

5. Heavy-Duty

Design: Built to withstand heavy loads like steel bars, thick plywood, or large metal sheets.

Application: Ideal for industrial warehouses and environments with demanding weight and volume requirements.

Advantages: Provides significant load-bearing capacity and durability.

Use Cases: Manufacturing plants, steel storage, or other heavy industry applications.

6. Structural

Design: Made from structural steel components for superior durability and strength.

Application: Heavy-duty applications where the rack may need to withstand impacts from forklifts or heavy materials.

Advantages: Extremely rugged and long-lasting, ideal for outdoor use or harsh environments.

Use Cases: Steel fabrication, lumberyards, and other outdoor storage facilities.

7. Roll-Out

Design: Features arms that roll out or extend, allowing easier access to stored items.

Application: Used where access to stored materials needs to be simplified, minimizing the need for large aisles or forklifts.

Advantages: Allows for space-saving and more ergonomic loading and unloading.

Use Cases: Warehouses where vertical space is at a premium or for delicate items that need careful handling.

8. Mobile Cantilever Rack

Design: Installed on mobile bases, allowing the rack to be moved along rails.

Application: Suitable for maximizing storage space and reducing the number of aisles needed.

Advantages: High storage density, flexibility to move units as needed and better space utilization.

Use Cases: Warehouses with limited space, archives, or storage areas requiring dynamic use of space.

9. I-Beam

Design: Constructed using I-beams, offering additional strength and durability for heavy loads.

Application: Heavy-duty applications where significant weight capacity is required.

Advantages: Extremely strong and durable, ideal for handling large and heavy materials.

Use Cases: Steel mills, metal fabricators, and industries handling bulky and heavy goods.

10. Galvanized

Design: Made from galvanized steel to resist corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor use.

Application: Used for storing materials outdoors or in corrosive environments.

Advantages: Provides protection from weather elements, rust, and corrosion, ensuring longevity.

Use Cases: Lumberyards, construction sites, or outdoor material storage in coastal areas.

11. Customized

Design: Tailored to meet specific storage requirements, including custom arm lengths, column heights, or material specifications.

Application: Ideal for businesses with unique storage needs that can’t be met by standard rack designs.

Advantages: Completely adaptable to unique storage challenges and can be designed to handle a wide variety of materials.

Use Cases: Special applications in manufacturing or industries requiring unique storage solutions.
