The storage of steel tubes, pipes, and bars requires a specialized approach. These materials are not only heavy but also prone to damage if stacked incorrectly. Using standard racking can lead to bending, scratching, and dangerous collapses. Herochu introduces a superior solution with our specialized Cantilever Racks for Steel Tubes, designed to protect your valuable inventory while optimizing retrieval speeds.
Specialized Design for Cylindrical and Long Loads
Steel tubes vary greatly in diameter and length. A generic storage solution cannot account for these variances efficiently. Herochu’s cantilever systems are engineered specifically to cradle these long goods. The arms act as a secure cradle, supporting the tube along its length or at balanced points to prevent sagging or deformation.
Our systems accommodate storage lengths ranging from 3000mm to over 12000mm. This versatility means that whether you are stocking standard 6-meter pipes or extra-long industrial conduits, a single Herochu system can handle the variety. This capability eliminates the “dead space” often found in warehouses trying to segregate different lengths of stock.
The Advantage of Telescopic and Roll-Out Designs
For facilities looking to maximize density, Herochu offers advanced configurations, including cantilever roll out racking for steel storage. This innovative design allows arms to telescope or pull out, enabling operators to access rear-loaded items without removing front loads.
This feature is particularly beneficial when used in conjunction with overhead cranes. An operator can extend the arm, lower the crane hook, secure the steel tube, and lift it away without the interference of the rack structure. This mechanized operation reduces manual handling risks and speeds up the loading cycle significantly.
Robust Construction for Heavy Tonnage
Steel is dense, and a small volume of it can weigh a tremendous amount. Herochu racks are fabricated using heavy-duty steel columns and reinforced bracing. We offer load capacities that can be personalized to your needs, with layers capable of holding up to 6 tons.
The structural integrity is further enhanced by a multi-layer design that utilizes vertical space efficiently. Instead of spreading steel tubes across a sprawling yard, you can stack them vertically on Herochu racks, potentially increasing your storage density by 200%. This consolidation frees up floor space for other value-added activities, such as fabrication or assembly.
Corrosion Protection and Longevity
Steel tubes are often stored in environments that can accelerate rust, both on the product and the rack itself. Herochu addresses this with superior surface treatments. Our racks feature a phosphorization finish followed by a high-quality powder coat. This dual-layer protection creates a barrier against moisture and chemical exposure, ensuring the rack remains structurally sound and aesthetically professional for years.
Choosing Herochu means choosing a partner dedicated to quality. Our products undergo strict quality control, adhering to ISO9001 standards. We understand that downtime is costly, which is why our racks are built to last, minimizing maintenance requirements and total cost of ownership (TCO).
