Types of static shelving

Heavy-duty pallet racking: It is made of high-quality cold-rolled steel plate and formed by rolling. The column can be up to 3 meters without connecting seam. The beam is made of high-quality square steel, which has a large bearing capacity and is not easy to deform. The widget between the beam and the column is inserted and connected by a cylindrical convex. It is reliable, easy to disassemble and assemble, and lock nails are used to prevent the forklift from lifting the beam during work to increase the safety factor; the surfaces of all shelves are treated by pickling, phosphate electrostatic spraying and other processes, anti-corrosion and rust prevention, have beautiful appearance.

Size:40*40mm;thickness:1.4mm before painting.The column is mainly made of high grade cold-rolled steel;the main frame is composed of four columns,while the sub-fram has only two columns.The main frame can be used aloe,but the sub-fram can’t.

2. Shelve

Size:customized;thickness:0.5mm before painting. 3,4,5,6 layers is available, and the layer height could be adjustable by free.A plurality of reinforcing ribs are welded at the bottom of the shelf, greatly strengthen the bearing capacity of the shelf.

3. Beam
