Pallet Rack Beam capacity and load rating chart

Pallet Rack Upright-Beam Weight & Load Rating Capacity Chart

We frequently receive requests for weight and capacity charts for both NEW and USED Pallet Rack Uprights and Beams. Understanding Pallet Racking Load capacity is crucial for ensuring safe and efficient use of these storage systems. For all NEW equipment we sell, weight ratings are always provided, both during the quoting phase and on the final invoice. Access to a pallet racking load capacity chart can clarify these ratings.

While we cannot supply weight and capacity ratings for USED or existing racking, we have included a general capacity chart to assist with weight and capacity estimations. This pallet racking load capacity chart, created by Husky Rack & Wire, is available on their website and can serve as a useful reference. *Unless your Pallet Rack is manufactured by Husky Rack & Wire, this chart is for estimating purposes only.

Another question we get frequently… “CAN WE CERTIFY USED OR EXISTING PALLET RACK?” Unfortunately, we cannot certify used or existing pallet rack systems (no one can!). We understand this may be frustrating, but without knowing the original manufacturer, date of manufacture or the specific gauge and type of steel used in production, certification is simply not possible.
