When it comes to storing long metal bars, rods, or pipes, traditional static shelving often leads to inefficiencies: blocked aisles, double-handling, and underutilized cubic space. Enter the Efficient Metal Cantilever Roll for Stacking Shelf—a dynamic storage innovation from Herochu that transforms passive racks into active workflow assets.
Unlike fixed cantilever systems, this roll-out shelf integrates a smooth-gliding carriage mechanism beneath each storage level, allowing entire trays of pipes to be rolled forward for immediate access. This “roll-for-access” principle eliminates the need to unload upper layers to reach lower ones—a common bottleneck in conventional warehouses. With just one operator and minimal effort, materials can be retrieved or replenished in seconds.
The core structure uses heavy-duty steel beams with a powder-coated finish for anti-rust protection, supporting loads up to 5 tons per layer. Available in lengths of 6m, 9m, and 12m, the system accommodates standard industrial pipe dimensions while maintaining structural integrity. The model HC-G9055S, for example, offers unilateral assistance in a compact 9435x3340x1550mm footprint—perfect for narrow-aisle facilities.
What truly sets this system apart is its space optimization. By enabling full aisle utilization on both sides, it increases storage density by up to 45% compared to standard cantilever racks. This is achieved through precise alignment of roll-out trays that nest seamlessly when retracted, minimizing dead zones. The result? More inventory in less floor space—without compromising safety or accessibility.
Safety is engineered into every component. Each rolling tray includes integrated stoppers and side guards to prevent lateral shifting during movement. Optional forklift-compatible legs allow safe relocation of fully loaded units during facility reconfigurations. For environments requiring electrostatic discharge (ESD) control—such as electronics manufacturing or precision machining—the racks can be fitted with conductive coatings upon request.
Herochu’s dual role as manufacturer and trader ensures quality control from raw material sourcing to final assembly. Every unit undergoes load-testing and dimensional verification before shipment. Clients can request custom colors, layer configurations, or electric assist motors for heavier applications. Technical engineers are available for virtual site assessments to recommend optimal layouts based on your pipe inventory profile.
Real-world applications span multiple sectors. In a steel fabrication plant in Germany, switching to Herochu’s roll-out cantilever shelves reduced material handling labor by 35% and cut retrieval errors by half. Similarly, a renewable energy contractor in Texas reported a 22% increase in usable warehouse space after retrofitting their pipe yard with this system.
Certified under CE and ISO standards, the Efficient Metal Cantilever Roll for Stacking Shelf meets international safety and performance benchmarks. It’s not just a storage rack—it’s a productivity multiplier.
For businesses aiming to modernize their long-material logistics, this solution offers a compelling blend of mechanical simplicity, industrial robustness, and operational intelligence. When paired with Herochu’s responsive after-sales service—including on-site training and spare parts availability—it becomes a long-term asset rather than a short-term fix.
In an era where warehouse efficiency directly impacts supply chain resilience, the Efficient Metal Cantilever Roll for Stacking Shelf stands as a benchmark in smart industrial storage.
