What is a cantilever rack?

A cantilever rack is a storage system used in warehouses for products that are long, bulky, or have awkward shape or size. These types of products are difficult to store in normal pallets. The rack has 4 main parts, comprising base, arms, uprights, and supports. 

 

The rack has horizontal arms to carry and store heavy and long goods in a warehouse. Some of the examples of products that can be stored on it include boats, plumbing pipes, wood, steel pipe, and many more.
