No bracing to add, No hardware required. Our Wide Span is furnished in bakery enamel finish. Not recommended for fork truck loading. Components
Upright frames: Our Wide Span Upright Frames are made from 16 to 14 gauge steel, MIG welded into one rigid assembly containing posts, diagonal and horizontal braces and foot plates. There is no assembly required. Many sizes are available. Posts are punched on the face to provide positive independent beam placement on 1-1/2" vertical centers. The posts are marked on 12"centers to facilitate placement of shelf levels. A slot on each side of the post accepts a nib on the end of each beam, to lock it in place. Frames have a capacity of 10,000 pounds with a 1.92 safety factor where vertical beam spacing does not exceed 60". Rigidity beams
Rigidity beams provide lateral stability for the shelving ;a minimum of two pairs of beams is required per unit. They are constructed of 2" or 3" high steel tube with 1/2" step designed to support 1/2"thick plywood deck material flush with top of beam and a beam end connector welded to each end. Beams are supplied in even foot lengths from 4' through 8'. If the beams are being used as load bearing members, then Beam Braces are required. All Wide Span Beams have a patented Beam safety clip that secures the beam end to the upright post to retard accidental beam dislodging. Standard plywood crossing support tube
Standard Plywood crossing Support tubes fit on the beam step of Standard Plywood Beams. Order separately from beams. Order two per pair of 48" & 60" beams; three for 72 & 84 "beams; four for 96"beams.
