Cantilever Rack: Structural Features And Composition

Do you know what a cantilever shelf is? As a manufacturer of storage shelf systems, we share with you the structural characteristics and composition of cantilever shelves, hoping to help you.

Cantilever shelf is an important part of the industrial storage racks. Most of them are metal storage shelves. Cantilever shelf is suitable for storing long material, ring material, plate, pipe and irregular goods. Cantilevers can be single-sided or double-sided. Cantilever rack has the characteristics of stable structure, good bearing capacity and high space utilization. Cantilever rack columns are mostly made of H-beam or cold-rolled steel. Cantilevers are made of square tubes, cold rolled steel or H-beams. The cantilever and the column are connected by bolts or screws. The base and the post are bolted together. The base is cold rolled steel or H beam.

Cantilever shelves are built by mounting cantilevers on columns, which can be fixed or movable. Tubes and plates are used for storage. According to the bearing capacity, it can be divided into light cantilever shelf, medium cantilever shelf and heavy cantilever shelf; According to the structure, it can be divided into single-sided cantilever shelf and double-sided cantilever shelf. Cantilevered shelves are ideal for storing large, loose or other special products. The cantilever shelves are divided into single arm and double arm, which can effectively store wood, pipe, strip, etc.

The structural characteristics of cantilever shelves are as follows.

1, The cantilever shelf has a single arm and two arms, can efficiently store wood, pipe, bar and other similar products. The cantilever shelf can be composed of a single column unit and a cantilever, and a plurality of unit systems can be continuously formed through transverse and diagonal bars. They can be used as garage storage shelves.

2. Cantilever shelf is an effective storage system for quality, safety and management. The column is composed of a column and a base. The column is welded together from two specially designed C-shaped steels. This structure makes full use of the load resistance of materials, has the characteristics of strong carrying capacity and low cost.

3, The column is prefabricated with double rows of holes, the spacing is 100mm, the cantilever is connected with the column through the plate pin, can be adjusted up and down, the spacing is 100mm.

Cantilever shelves are generally made of two kinds of materials.

1, The square control: cantilever shelf according to the corresponding cantilever layer bearing requirements, first select the square tube that meets the requirements of stratification, cut into the required size, one end of the welding anti-skid guard plate, the other end of the welding U-shaped column connection..

2, With C steel production: cantilever frame according to the corresponding cantilever layer bearing requirements, first choose c steel specifications, after the selection, the two C steel butt welding, welding anti-skid guard plate, the other end of the welding U-shaped column connection.

The cantilever bracket column and column are connected with a connecting rod, the connecting rod is generally made of rectangular tube. In order to increase safety and stability, a flat iron back plate is used on the connector to secure the column tightly.

All cantilever shelf parts are semi-finished products after production and will be painted in the final process. The shot blasting machine is sandblasted, degreased and derusted before spraying. After completion, packing and shipping. The front cantilever has the characteristics of stable structure, good bearing capacity, convenient management, wide vision, etc., and is suitable for the storage of strip, sheet or ring materials. Cantilever rack adopts special profile column and pull back design to increase stability. Cantilever rack has the characteristics of light structure, strong bearing capacity and high space utilization. Cantilever rack is easy to operate and has wide vision. Especially suitable for small space, low height of the warehouse.
