The cantilever pipe rack is an industrial-grade storage system engineered for the efficient organization of long, bulky items such as steel pipes, lumber, coils, and construction materials.
Its signature "tree-branch" design features horizontal arms extending from vertical columns, enabling secure, accessible storage without front-column obstructions.
Ideal for warehouses, workshops, and logistics hubs, cantilever pipe rack maximizes vertical space while accommodating heavy loads and irregularly shaped items.
1. Design & Configuration
* Single/Double-Sided Options:
Single-sided: Space-efficient for wall-mounted use.
Double-sided: Central access for high-traffic areas.
* Modular Expandability: Easily add arms or columns to adapt to growing storage needs.
* Adjustability: Arms can be repositioned vertically in 100 mm increments (varies by model) for flexible load placement.
2. Dimensions & Customization
* Height: 1.5–6 meters (standard); extendable to 6 meters for forklift-accessible setups.
* Arm Length: 1–1.6 meters, customizable for item length.
* Load Capacity:
Light-Duty: Up to 250 kg/arm (e.g., plastic pipes, moldings).
Heavy-Duty: 1,000–6,000 kg/rack (e.g., steel coils, machinery).
3. Material & Durability
* Frame Construction:
Steel Types: Cold-rolled Q235 steel or galvanized steel for corrosion resistance.
Surface Treatment: Powder-coated (RAL color options) or galvanized to withstand humidity, chemicals, and outdoor conditions.
* Arm Design: Reinforced H-beams or square tubing (40–80 mm thickness) to prevent bending under load.
* Optimized Space Utilization
Vertical storage frees floor space, increasing warehouse capacity by 35–50% despite lower density compared to pallet racks.
Foldable arms minimize the footprint when idle.
* Enhanced Safety & Accessibility
End-Stops: Prevent round items (e.g., coils) from rolling off arms.
Forklift Compatibility: Wide-aisle designs accommodate sideloaders with extended forks.
* Durability & Compliance
Corrosion-resistant finishes suit harsh environments (e.g., unheated warehouses, coastal sites).
Certifications: CE, TUV, and ISO 9001 ensure structural integrity.
* Easy Installation & Maintenance
Boltless Assembly: Arms slot into perforated columns for tool-free setup.
Maintenance Tips:
Apply protective wax to joints biannually.
Inspect for impact damage (e.g., forklift collisions) using column-mounted reflectors.
* Industrial & Warehousing:
Stores pipes, rebar, sheet metal, and machinery parts.
Supports coil storage with specialized single-arm designs.
* Construction & Retail:
Lumber yards, building materials, supermarkets (e.g., long flooring, beams).
* Workshops & Garages:
Holds PVC tubes, moldings, and DIY materials.
Dimensions: Tailor height/width/depth to fit site constraints.
Color: Match warehouse aesthetics (blue, orange, white, or custom RAL shades).
Accessories:
Diagonal braces for stability.
Protective end-caps and column guards.
