The storage of piping—whether for plumbing, oil & gas, construction, or industrial machinery—presents unique challenges. Pipes are long, cylindrical, heavy, and often come in a dizzying array of diameters, lengths, and materials. Stacking them on the ground is unsafe and disorganized. Using standard shelving leads to instability and difficult retrieval. The Telescopic Cantilever Pipe Rack is a purpose-built answer, a specialized system designed from the ground up to handle the specific demands of pipe storage with unparalleled efficiency, safety, and space economy.
Design Tailored for Cylindrical Loads
The Telescopic Cantilever Pipe Rack leverages the fundamental strengths of cantilever design—open front access without vertical obstructions—and enhances it with telescopic functionality. The upright columns are strategically placed, and the high-tensile cantilevers are engineered to support the unique weight distribution of cylindrical loads. The telescopic cantilever arms allow operators to adjust the support points or create access gaps for different pipe bundles or crane slings.
This system is mainly used for storage of long, circular or irregular shaped goods, with specific advantages for storage of strip type cargoes, such as tubing and plate. The arms prevent rolling and provide stable, evenly distributed support along the pipe’s length, minimizing sagging and deformation.
Robust Construction and High-Capacity Performance
Pipes are heavy, and their storage system must be stronger. This rack is constructed from high quality steel, ensuring structural integrity under significant stress. The plastic sprayed surface offers corrosion resistance, crucial in environments where metal pipes might transfer moisture or in outdoor applications.
It truly shines as a High-Capacity Telescopic Cantilever Shelves for Storing Steel Pipe. Configurations can be tailored to staggering capacities. For instance, a double-sided unit like the HC-G9055D model can handle loading per layer of up to 6 tons and a total loading per rack of 42 tons, while accommodating pipes up to 12,000mm in length. Whether you need a single side cantilever rack for against-the-wall storage or a double-sided island unit, customized designs for sizes and loading capacity available make it a perfect fit.
Transforming Pipe Yard and Warehouse Operations
The operational benefits are profound. First, safety is drastically improved. Pipes are stored securely off the ground, reducing trip hazards and the risk of rolls or collapses. Organized, tiered storage allows for clear labeling and inventory management by diameter, schedule, length, or material grade.
Second, efficiency soars. The telescopic function means a crane operator can quickly retract an arm to create a direct vertical lift path. There’s no more dragging pipes out from the middle of a pile. This direct access, combined with the ability to store by categories, turns hours of searching and handling into minutes. The space savings are equally dramatic, with the potential to save 60% space compared to floor stacking, effectively doubled efficiency&reduced costs.
Conclusion
For any business whose livelihood involves pipes, the Telescopic Cantilever Pipe Rack is not an optional accessory but an essential piece of core infrastructure. It replaces chaos with order, hazard with safety, and inefficiency with streamlined productivity. By providing a stable, accessible, and high-capacity home for valuable piping inventory, this specialized telescopic cantilever storage system safeguards your assets, empowers your workforce, and optimizes your most valuable real estate—your warehouse or storage yard. It is the definitive solution for professional pipe management.
