Heavy-Duty Cantilever Racking For Any Facility Pipe Racks and Storage Systems

Herochu Heavy-Duty Cantilever Racking For Any Facility Pipe Racks and Storage Systems – engineered to shoulder the heaviest loads, adapt to the tightest footprints, and outlast the busiest shifts. Built from certified structural steel, CE-, UE-, and ISO 9001-approved, this range begins at $10,100 and scales precisely to the dimensions, weight profile, and workflow of your plant, yard, or warehouse.

Every upright, arm, and brace is cut from hot-rolled, anti-twist steel and welded to a continuous seam for maximum torsional rigidity. Bolt-together assembly eliminates on-site welding while preserving the strength of a monolithic frame. Pre-drilled uprights accept key-lock arms at 3-inch pitch increments, giving millimetre-level adjustability without disassembly. Whether you store 12-metre structural pipe, 5-ton steel billets, or mixed pallets of aluminum extrusion, the rack stands ready.

Space efficiency drives the design. A single HC-G12055D bay rises 17.5 ft high yet occupies only 3.3 m of floor width, freeing forklift lanes and production cells. Cantilever arms project up to 6 m on bilateral models, suspending inventory safely above the deck and turning vertical air into premium storage volume. Medium-duty and heavy-duty classifications allow the same frame to serve both light tubing and full-scale oil-country tubular goods without overbuilding or under-specifying.

Load security is engineered, not improvised. Arms are punched for bolt-on lips that prevent pipe roll-off and boxed edges that protect painted finishes. Optional 10-degree inclined arms cradle round stock, eliminating the need for chocks or straps. Each arm is proof-loaded to 150 % of rated capacity before shipment, ensuring that the published 3 t, 5 t, or custom rating is a working figure, not a theoretical limit.

Configuration flexibility matches the product range. Uprights, arms, and braces ship separately, so you purchase only what the application demands. Add a second tier next month, swap medium arms for extra-heavy units, or extend bays lengthwise with splice kits—all without dismantling the existing structure. Manual, semi-electric, and fully automated retrieval modules bolt directly to the frame, future-proofing the investment as throughput grows.

Assembly is deliberate and swift. All hardware—grade 8.8 bolts, flange nuts, and seismic anchors—is included. A two-person crew can erect a 9 m double-sided bay in under three hours using basic hand tools. Pre-galvanized or powder-coated finishes withstand outdoor exposure and caustic wash-down cycles common in pipe-coating facilities. Detailed load plaques and inspection checklists guide periodic safety audits, keeping compliance officers satisfied and operators protected.

Herochu’s cantilever line addresses the real pain points of long-stock storage: tangled floor piles, double handling, and lost inventory. One Gulf Coast fabricator replaced scattered timber bunks with HC-G9055D bays and recovered 2,500 sq ft of shop floor—enough space for a new CNC beam line. A Scandinavian pipe distributor cut picking time by 38 % after labeling each arm with bar-coded locations visible from the forklift cab. ROI arrived in seven months through labor savings alone.

Specifications span four core models. HC-G6053D delivers 3 t per arm across 6 m of projection with four load levels plus a bilateral assistance tier. HC-G9055S offers 5 t arms extending 9 m on a single-sided frame ideal against walls or fencing. HC-G9055D mirrors the load and reach but on a double-sided core for aisle access on both faces. HC-G12055D stretches to 12 m—perfect for casing, drill pipe, or long-reach structural beams—while retaining the same 5 t rating and 4 + 1 layer count. Overall widths remain a constant 3.34 m, maintaining forklift aisle standards regardless of bay length.

Customization is limited only by crane height and slab capacity. Specify arm lengths in half-metre increments, choose galvanized or epoxy finish, add mesh decking for loose boxes, or integrate powered shuttle carts for lights-out retrieval. Engineering drawings and static calculations are supplied within 48 hours, ensuring seismic, fire-code, and insurance compliance before the first anchor is drilled.
