The most troublesome thing for warehouse managers in the warehouse is not standard pallet goods, but those long, heavy, and irregularly shaped things - pipes, profiles, wooden blocks, aluminum plates, carpet rolls, plastic pipes... that are forcefully stuffed into ordinary crossbeam shelves, resulting in blocked passages, bent goods, and a large number of safety hazards. Shibang cantilever shelves are specifically designed for goods that cannot fit into square boxes.

1、 Why can't ordinary shelves handle 'long materials'?

The depth of the layer board of the crossbeam shelf is usually only 0.8-1.2 meters, and a steel pipe may be 6 meters long, with both ends suspended and impossible to store. Hard placement can only be done diagonally, occupying two or three cargo spaces, and forklifts are also prone to collisions when turning. The overhanging shelves of Shibang have removed the front column obstruction, with single-sided or double-sided overhanging arms. Pipes and profiles are placed flat on them, and the length direction extends freely. A 6-meter material only occupies one storage space width - the space utilization rate immediately returns.

2、 The three "hard core" values of Shibang cantilever shelves

① Fast storage and retrieval, no flipping of stacks

Traditional ground stacking requires moving all the materials on top before taking the bottom one. Cantilever shelves can be accessed from the side, allowing for easy picking and retrieval without the need for stacking. With hooks or forklift attachments, they are much more efficient and avoid surface scratches caused by frequent movement.

② Clear classification, no mixing of materials

Each cantilever can be labeled with material/specification, and different models can be stored separately. Cooperate with the optional end stop/pipe clamp of Shibang to prevent the round pipe from rolling and falling off; Carpet rolls and rolls can be prevented from rolling off with angled cantilevers, making it easy to see on site.

③ Stable and adjustable, following the business

The spacing standard for the column holes of the Shi Bang cantilever shelf (usually based on a 100mm module), the cantilever height, arm length, and single-sided and double-sided configurations can be adjusted as needed. Today we will store fine copper pipes (with tight arm spacing and multiple layers), and tomorrow we will store large-diameter steel pipes (with thin arm spacing and fewer layers). Simply hang the arms again without the need to replace the frame.

3、 Suggestions for practical selection (key points to avoid pitfalls)

Arm length matching cargo width: The cantilever extension length should be slightly greater than half of the cargo width to ensure that the center of gravity falls on the arm and there is no excessive bending moment.

Consider single/double cantilever: use single-sided cantilever against the wall to save passage; Double sided cantilever is used for the middle layout, and both sides can be stocked for higher storage density.

Load capacity margin: It is planned to carry 500kg per arm, and it is recommended to choose a configuration with a nominal load capacity of 600-700kg, which will not deform under long-term full load.

Collision prevention first: The long material area is usually equipped with off-road forklifts or forward moving forklifts, and solid anti-collision corner protectors are installed at the base of the cantilever to reduce the risk of column collision.

4、 Quick overview of applicable industries

Shibang cantilever shelves are widely used in the building materials market (steel, aluminum profiles), wood processing plants (storage of wooden blocks and board edges), mechanical manufacturing (long axis parts), carpet/curtain wholesale (coil) and other industries. Any goods that are "long," "irregular," or "difficult to classify" can basically be sorted out by it.

To be honest, Shibang:

Irregular goods are disorderly, it's not that you can't manage them well, it's because you didn't choose the right tools. Liberate the long materials from the ground piles and crossbeam shelves, and give them a "separate" home with solid cantilever shelves - the warehouse immediately reduces visual chaos by half and has 30% more usable channels. If needed, please let me know your most commonly stored material length, individual weight, and available net height. Shibang can help you roughly determine the arm length and layout plan.
