Handling & Use Requirements

Equipment must be used within rated load capacities and installed on suitable warehouse flooring. Improper loading, uneven distribution, or use outside intended applications can result in structural failure.

Inspect all shipments upon delivery and note any freight damage before signing. Installation and final configuration should be verified by qualified personnel to ensure safe operation.

Delivery & Freight Shipping

All equipment ships via LTL or dedicated freight carriers and is delivered curbside or dock-high depending on facility setup. Liftgate service is not included unless specifically requested at the time of quote.

You are responsible for unloading the shipment and must have appropriate equipment (forklift or dock access) available at delivery. Failure to meet delivery requirements may result in re-delivery fees.

Inspect all items upon arrival before signing the Bill of Lading. Any visible damage must be noted at delivery—claims cannot be processed after acceptance without documentation.

Operational Fit

These pallet rack beams are commonly used in selective pallet racking systems handling standard pallet storage in warehouse, fulfillment, distribution, and light manufacturing operations.

The 72" span is typically used where shorter beam lengths are required for tighter layouts, smaller pallet configurations, or lower-capacity rack sections. This beam size is not intended for high-density storage systems or heavy pallet loads requiring larger face sizes or higher-capacity structural beams.

Important Capacity & Safety Information

Beam capacities are rated per pair, not per individual beam. Two beams are required for each pallet rack level.

Capacities apply only to evenly distributed static pallet loads. Point-loaded pallets, uneven loading, impact loading, or damaged rack components will reduce system performance and can create unsafe storage conditions.

Rack configurations installed in seismic zones or high-traffic forklift environments should be reviewed before installation. Final rack system design and load verification should be confirmed prior to use.

Need Help Confirming Beam Capacity?

Provide your pallet dimensions, pallet weights, upright depth, and desired beam spacing for assistance reviewing rack compatibility and beam sizing requirements.

📚 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

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

Capacities are rated per pair. Do not calculate pallet rack load capacity using a single beam.

Can these pallet rack beams be used with structural uprights?

No. These beams are designed for teardrop and Interlake-style roll-formed pallet rack frames.

Can wire decking be installed on these beams?

Yes. The standard 1 5/8" step supports standard wire decking and pallet support accessories.

Are these beams suitable for heavy-duty high-density pallet storage?

No. A 3" face beam with a 3,500 lb capacity is intended for medium-duty selective pallet racking applications. Higher-capacity systems typically require larger beam profiles or structural rack components.

Are beams sold individually or in pairs?

Beams are sold individually. Two beams are required to create one pallet rack storage level.
