Cantilever Rack System
Cantilever racking systems provide superior storage solutions for long, irregular, and bulky materials with exceptional stability and space efficiency.
Core Advantages
Outstanding Load Stability
The cantilever structure combined with heavy-duty columns creates a stable triangular mechanical support system, effectively resisting lever forces from long materials while preventing front-end sagging or deformation.
High Space Utilization Efficiency
With no vertical obstructions at the front, materials can be directly accessed from the side using forklifts. This design is particularly suitable for warehouses with limited ceiling heights, while the double-sided configuration maximizes central space utilization.
Excellent Material Adaptability
The open space between cantilevers effortlessly accommodates various materials including pipes over ten meters long, irregular profiles, large sheets, and bundled textiles without requiring additional shelf plates.
Flexible Scalability
Cantilever length, floor height, and quantity can be customized and adjusted as needed to accommodate business growth or changes in stored items.
Typical Application Scenarios
Cantilever racking is widely used in industries requiring storage for long, irregular, or bulky items:
- Building Materials & Profile Industry: Wood, aluminum profiles, PVC pipes, steel bars, stone slabs
- Metal Processing & Manufacturing: Metal pipes, rods, steel coils, large mechanical components
- Furniture & Home Furnishings: Wood panels, carpet rolls, large furniture components
- Warehouse & Logistics: Plastic pipes, rolled textiles, ultra-long packaging materials
Design & Selection Considerations
Precise Load Assessment
Determine weight, length, and distribution of stored items to select appropriate light, medium, or heavy-duty options and specify cantilever specifications.
Optimized Space Layout
Design layout based on warehouse clear height, column spacing, and aisle width while ensuring sufficient space for forklift operations.
Safety Enhancements
Consider adding diagonal braces and rear struts to enhance overall stability. Install guard plates or protective covers at cantilever ends to prevent cargo sliding and protect rack systems.
Cantilever rack systems provide safe and efficient storage solutions for long, irregular, and heavy materials through their simple yet robust mechanical structure. Their outstanding load-bearing capacity, space adaptability, and convenient access make them essential infrastructure in various industrial and commercial warehousing applications.
