Teardrop Pallet Racking

Product Introduction

Teardrop Pallet Racking is one of the commonly used racking in warehouses and logistics centers in the American market. Its name comes from its punching shape similar to teardrops. It is mainly composed of uprights, beams, horizontal braces, diagonal braces and footplates. The distance between the teardrop-shaped continuous punching holes on the upright is 2 inches. Therefore, the installation height of the beam can be adjusted freely. Also, it can be used with different accessories to achieve a variety of functions.

Advantages

Teardrop Pallet Racking can store different kinds of goods more securely and stably and prevent goods from falling off with mesh deck or support bar. In the case of back-to-back racking installation, the two groups of racking can be connected by row spacers, which can effectively prevent racking toppling. It can be combined with upright protector, barrier and other protective devices to avoid forklift truck collision caused by safety accidents.

Our advices

All types of pallet shelves can increase the storage density of stored goods. Racking-related costs wil increase as storage density increases.

However, in large warehouses, the handling of cargos is usually carried out by forklifts, stackers, etc., which will inevitably collide with the racking of the warehouse. In particular, some less experienced forklift operators were restricted in their operations, causing damage to fences, brackets and pallets.

We advise you choose professional forklift truck drivers and train them regularly. On the one hand, forklift truck drivers should strengthen pre-job training to improve their safety awareness. On the other hand, the assessment of forklift drivers should be strengthened after the entry.

In order to reduce the collision between the truck and the racking, we should not only choose the perfect scheme to give the racking manufacturer's specialty, but also let the warehouse personnel be more attentive and careful, and constantly improve their professional skills.
