Compatible Applications

These pallet rack beams are commonly used in:

  • Selective pallet racking systems
  • Warehouse storage systems
  • Distribution centers
  • Manufacturing storage areas
  • 3PL warehouse operations
  • Ecommerce fulfillment facilities
  • Bulk pallet storage applications

Do not use these beams with incompatible upright perforations, damaged rack components, or unsupported beam spans.

Capacity & Configuration Notice

Beam capacities are rated per pair under uniformly distributed static loads. Capacity assumes properly installed compatible uprights, correct beam engagement, undamaged rack components, and appropriate rack configuration.

Seismic conditions, impact damage, improper installation, concentrated loads, or incompatible components reduce allowable rack capacity. Consult a qualified rack professional before modifying existing pallet rack systems.

Installation & Configuration Notes

These beams feature a teardrop-style connector for tool-free installation into compatible upright frames. Beam elevations can be adjusted without bolted hardware.

Two beams are required for each pallet rack shelf level. Decking, uprights, pallet supports, anchors, and additional rack accessories are sold separately.

Custom beam lengths may be available for specific warehouse layouts or non-standard pallet configurations.

Need Help Verifying Beam Capacity or Upright Compatibility?

Talk with a warehouse racking specialist before ordering. Incorrect beam sizing, incompatible uprights, or improper rack configuration can reduce system capacity and create safety risks.

📚 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Are pallet rack beam capacities rated per beam or per pair?

Pallet rack beam capacities are rated per pair. Do not calculate rack capacity using a single beam.

Are these pallet rack beams compatible with all pallet rack uprights?

No. These beams are designed for teardrop and Interlake New Style uprights only.

Can wire decking be installed on these beams?

Yes. The standard 1 5/8" step design supports wire decking, pallet supports, and wood decking systems.

How many beams are required for one pallet rack level?

Two beams are required for each storage level. A single beam does not create a complete shelf level.

Can these beams be used in seismic zones?

Standard beam capacities do not account for seismic requirements. Facilities in seismic regions require rack configuration review before installation.
