Extra long cargo? Cantilever shelving: It can fit and hold more securely!

FAQ

2025-08-18
In modern warehousing and logistics systems, efficiently and safely storing irregular or oversized materials has always been a challenge. Cantilever shelves, with their unique design concept, have become the preferred solution for solving such storage problems.
1. Core structure: Simple but not simplistic
The core of cantilever shelves lies in the clever combination of "columns+cantilevers":
● Column: As the load-bearing skeleton of the entire system, it is usually made of heavy-duty steel to ensure stable support in the vertical direction.
● Cantilever: a key component that extends horizontally and is securely fixed to a column using high-strength connectors such as bolts or clamps. Its length, quantity, and layer height can be flexibly adjusted according to actual storage needs.
● Single/double-sided design: The cantilever can be installed only on one side of the column (single-sided), suitable for areas near walls; Or symmetrically installed on both sides of the column (double-sided) to form a central storage channel and improve warehouse space utilization.
2. Classified by "power": matching different carrying requirements
Cantilever shelves are not uniform, and their load-bearing capacity is an important distinguishing dimension:
● Lightweight type: Single arm load-bearing capacity is usually below 300kg, suitable for storing lightweight long boards and decorative materials in building materials markets, home furnishing stores, etc.
● Medium weight type: A single arm can carry about 300kg to 800kg, commonly used in pipe factories and profile processing workshops to store medium-sized metal pipes and plastic profiles.
● Weight type: A single arm can carry over 800kg or even several tons, designed specifically for industrial heavy materials such as heavy steel beams and large robotic arms.
3. Core Advantage: Why is it highly favored?
● Excellent load stability: The cantilever structure combined with heavy-duty columns forms a stable triangular mechanical support, especially adept at dealing with the leverage force generated by long materials, avoiding front-end sagging deformation.
● Efficient space utilization: The cantilever front end has no vertical obstacles, and materials can be directly accessed from the side (such as using a forklift), especially suitable for warehouses with limited floor height. The double-sided design maximizes the utilization of central space.
● Excellent material adaptability: Whether it's pipes over ten meters long, irregularly shaped profiles, large boards, or bundled textiles, the open space between the cantilevers can easily accommodate them without the need for additional shelf boards.
● Flexible scalability: The cantilever length, floor height, and quantity can be customized and adjusted as needed to adapt to business growth or changes in storage items.
4. Typical application scenarios
Cantilever shelves are widely used in industries that require storage of long, irregular, or bulky items:
● Building materials and profiles industry: wood, aluminum profiles, PVC pipes, steel bars, stone slabs.
● Metal processing and manufacturing industry: metal pipes, bars, steel coils, and large mechanical components.
● Furniture and Home Furnishing Industry: Panels, Carpet Rolls, Large Furniture Components.
● Warehousing and logistics: plastic pipes, rolled textiles, and ultra long packaging materials.
5. Key points of design and selection
●Accurate load assessment: Clarifying the individual weight, length, and distribution of stored items is the basis for selecting light, medium, and heavy loads and determining cantilever specifications.
● Reasonable space planning: Combine warehouse clearance height, column spacing, and channel width (to ensure forklift operation space) for layout design.
● Pay attention to safety details: consider adding diagonal braces and rear braces to enhance overall stability; Install baffles or protective covers at the end of the cantilever to prevent goods from slipping and protect the shelves.
● Professional installation and maintenance: Installation and debugging must be carried out by professional personnel, and bolt tightness, cantilever levelness, and structural integrity must be checked regularly. Overloading is strictly prohibited.
Conclusion
Cantilever shelves, with their simple yet powerful mechanical structure, provide a safe and efficient storage solution for long, irregular, and heavy materials. Its excellent carrying capacity, spatial adaptability, and convenient access make it an indispensable infrastructure in many industrial and commercial warehousing scenarios. Scientific selection and standardized use can maximize its efficiency and provide solid support for logistics operations.
