Bay Loading Capacities
For maximum stability we recommend shelving runs consisting of a minimum 3 beam levels per bay and 3 bays in length.
Fixing to the floor is also recommended, especially for taller frames or in areas of high traffic.
Load capacities will vary according to the clear height between each beam level as shown in the table below:
Clear height between beams (mm)
250 500 750 1000 1250 1500 1750 2000 2250 2500
Load capacity per frame (kg)
4340 4060 3850 3600 3240 2800 2300 1920 1560 1320
Load capacity per bay (kg)
2170 2030 1925 1800 1620 1400 1150 960 780 660
For configurations outside of these specifications the load capacity may be reduced.
