Storage Rack Protection  
 
 

Forklift damage is the core factor in about 90% of

 

rack failures. Get to the heart of the solution with Column Core® by Steel King.

Column Core® is exclusively available as a component to Steel King's SK2000® tubular racks, the benchmark system in the storage market. Column Core's unique C-shaped column reinforcement takes a rack that's already 2-1/2 times more impact resistant than open-back uprights and doubles it.

With Column Core, your SK2000 rack is a full five times more impact resistant at the front corners and sides where the upright is most vulnerable.

 

Column Core advantages:
  • Retain full beam adjustability
  • Reduce puncturing, buckling, and torsional twisting
  • Increase protection without additional
  • installation costs
  • Reinforce only as high as needed

Column Core provides:
  • Extra strength against impacts
  • Extra reinforcement

 

   

Industrial lift truck accidents are a common and costly occurrence. OSHA estimates that there are 68,400 accidents, each year, involving powered industrial trucks. Approximately 90,000 workers suffer some type of injuries in these accidents, resulting in lost work time, workers' compensation claims, and productivity losses - not to mention the damage inflicted upon equipment and facilities. About 100 people lose their lives each year in these accidents.

Steel King's "Steel Guard" protective railing system is a cost effective barrier against the effects of such accidents

Dock Barriers
The new Serco Dock Impact Barrier is a proven safety product that helps reduce the occurrence of dock accidents resulting from fork trucks, pallet jacks, and pedestrians falling off the dock when the overhead door is open. The Serco Dock
Barrier's lower impact barrier bar is constructed of 9/16"-thick steel cable inside a flexible fiberglass rail that is capable of stopping a 10,000 lb fork truck moving at 4 mph. The highly visible yellow nylon webbing provides an additional visual barrier at the dock.

The new Serco Dock Impact Barrier is a manually operated gate style barrier. When dock use is required, the Serco Dock Impact Barrier is opened by releasing the latch and lifting the gate into an upright position with very little effort.

This product can reduce the occurrence of:

  • Accidents due to fork lift, pallet jacks or pedestrians falling off dock when door is open
  • Damage to equipment, load, door panels and door track when door is closed

Manufacturer insures safety with customized Heavy Duty Ball Transfer Tables

Nelson Equipment Co., Inc. was called in to design a custom ball transfer solution for handling of heavy steel fabricated components.  Parts varied in weight from 5 pounds to over 1,400 pounds.  Safety was the utmost concern but also the durability of the solution was important.

Nelson worked with the customer to create a Heavy Duty Ball Transfer Table solution that fit the solution perfectly.  Ball transfers with a capacity of  250 pounds where mounted on heavy duty frames and adjustable supports on close 3” ball centers.  This allowed for both the heaviest products and smallest products to be handled with ease.
