East Windsor, NJ -- (SBWire) -- 02/04/2016 --One of the most basic fundamentals of a functioning warehouse, a pallet rack is a system where materials are stored on pallets. It exists in a wide variety of different solutions, but the basic principle of a pallet rack system is always that the storage consists of palletized materials that have been placed in horizontal rows, usually in multiple levels. This basic system is what most facilities, warehouses, retails centers and other locations storing goods have been using for almost a hundred years, and the essentials of it have changed very little during that time. The mere existence of pallets in this storage system as well as the piling of pallets on multiple levels also means that a storage system like this requires the use of a forklift truck or, in the cases of warehouses where the pallet levels reach high, machinery like narrow isle trucks to move and replace the pallets.

The most common type of pallet racking being used in contemporary warehousing is selective pallet racking, which can be either roll formed or structural depending on the weight-bearing capacity. Used for storing heavier items, structural pallet rack systems have load beams that have been attached with bolts whereas roll formed pallet racking has load beams held in place with mounting clips. Despite their simple appearance, pallet racks consist of a wide variety of components like load beams, upright frames, diagonal braces, pallet supports, timber decking, wire decking, footplates, shims, row spacers, wall ties, column protectors and guard rails.

Due to their versatility and universality, many business owners face the situation of needing to buy pallet racking at one point or another.
