Used Cantilever Rack Styles & Applications

Cantilever rack with out decking

Cantilever is a popular style of racking for storing long, bulky, bundled or loose tubes, cylinders, and piping, including flat stock such as lumber, metal or plastic. Other applications for retail businesses include a style of cantilever for storing furniture, appliances, cartons, motorcycles, boats, jet skis and many other types of products.

Cantilever rack upright

An upright bolted or welded to a base works together with connecting braces to stabilize the racking structure. The base is lagged to the flooring. Two variations of cantilever are available for your application – single and double sided. The double-sided unit allows for storage on both sides, while the single sided unit has storage arms on one side, generally for use against a wall or at the end of the cantilever storage area.

Cantilever rack arm

Arms in varying length and gauge make up the storage levels. Arms can be straight or inclined. Straight arms are used primarily for storage of products that will not roll off while an inclined arm with a lip as shown will assist in protecting items from falling.

Cantilever rack brace

To complete the cantilever structure, connecting braces are used to set the distance between uprights and stabilize the rack structure laterally.
