Structural Steel Pallet Racks — C-Channel Design

Structural pallet racking is a heavy-duty storage system built with hot-rolled structural steel C-Channel uprights and beams bolted together for maximum strength and durability. Designed to RMI ANSI MH16.1 specifications, structural racks withstand demanding warehouse environments, high forklift traffic, and heavy loads, making them ideal for distribution centers, manufacturing plants, and cold storage facilities.

Structural steel C-Channel pallet racks are engineered for heavy-duty applications and can support significantly higher loads than roll-formed alternatives. Specific capacity ratings depend on upright height, beam length, bay configuration, and floor anchoring. Storage Products Company provides engineered load capacity specifications for each configuration and can produce AutoCAD layout drawings to ensure your system is correctly rated for your application.
