Heavy-Duty Gravity Flow Rack

Description

Lyon’s heavy-duty gravity flow racks are a warehouse inventory flow solution for a variety of storage needs. We offer this gravity racking system with a durable powder coat finish available in Dove Gray. This will help protect your flow storage systems from everyday use. Use these order picking racks for storing items with quick turnover rates. This rack is also ideal for pharmaceuticals and healthcare facilities that need to store medical supplies and inventory rotation for time-sensitive products. These FIFO racking solutions help maintain inventory rotation for perishable goods, reducing waste. Our carton flow racks work great for automotive parts by enhancing picking accuracy and speed for spare parts and batteries, facilitating smooth operations.

WHAT ARE GRAVITY FLOW RACKS?

A gravity flow racking system has levels that are offset so that the back of a level is higher than the front. When someone takes the item in the front, the rest of the items will slide forward. This will allow items always be at the front. You can use industrial flow racks in a warehouse to make picking items easier. Workers won’t have to strain and reach for items on the back side of a rack level. Built from our bulk storage racks, these heavy-duty gravity flow racks are easy to assemble and support 3,000 lbs per level.

WELDED UPRIGHTS

Our heavy-duty gravity flow racks include two fully welded uprights made of 14-gauge steel. These storage rack uprights feature tubular bracing that is MIG welded to the post for added stability. The slots of the uprights provide a quick and easy vertical adjustment of beams to create optimal storage solutions. There are also no “dead spots” in the upright posts to disrupt your placement of beams along the entire height of the post. One pair of bulk storage rack uprights can hold up to 10,000 lbs. Uprights are available in either 72″h or 84″h sizes.

HEAVY-DUTY BEAMS

These heavy-duty gravity flow racks includes eight beams so you can create four levels. Lyon makes the heavy-duty beams of 14-gauge steel. Our unique “Z” beam design increases the strength and load capacity of the the steel beams while also resisting tipping and eliminating wasted space. The MIG welded beam clips give added strength. Each end of the beam has three studs to engage the heavy-duty metal rack upright slots. Easily adjust the beams on 1-1/2-inch vertical centers. Since the beams install without tools it’s easy to adjust your level spacing when your storage needs change. A fold in lock tab easily engages with the post to prevent accidental displacement. Each pair of 48-inch-wide heavy-duty beams can hold up to 3,000 lbs.

WIRE DECKING

The Lyon heavy-duty gravity flow racks also include wire decking. Our wire decking on these gravity-fed storage racks feature waterfall edges. The back edge sits on the beam and helps keep the decking from shifting down. The front edge is curled up so it prevents items from sliding off the rack. The wire decking sits in the lip of the beam to keep it in place. This strong decking can handle heavy items. The galvanized finish is resistant to corrosion.

ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION

While our heavy-duty gravity flow racks ship unassembled, you can put them together with ease. Lyon strongly recommends that you properly anchor all gravity fed racking systems. Make sure your metal storage racks are installed plumb and level before anchoring them to the floor and/or wall. We also include bulk storage rack anchor feet with this rack. Use Wedge Anchors to anchor your uprights to the floor.
