MECO SU12 Single Sided Cantilever Starter Rack Unit

The MECO Single Sided Cantilever Starter Unit, Model SU12, is a Series 4000 heavy-duty cantilever rack system designed to provide a complete storage bay for long, bulky, or irregular materials. This starter unit includes the key components needed to create a functional cantilever rack section and is well-suited for placement against a wall or along the perimeter of a storage area. The arms adjust on 3 in centers and use a hairpin keeper for fast, simple height changes. Straight arms are available with or without a lip and include a minimum pitch of 3/8 in per foot to help compensate for deflection under evenly distributed loads.

Why Use This Product:
Use the Single-Sided Cantilever Starter Unit when you need a strong, organized, and flexible storage solution for standard heavy-duty industrial storage requirements. A cantilever rack is ideal for materials that are difficult to store on standard pallet racks or shelving, including pipe, tubing, conduit, lumber, bar stock, trim, panels, steel, and other long or awkward inventory. The open-front design makes loading and unloading easier, while the adjustable arms allow you to reposition your storage levels as product sizes change. With its single-sided layout, this rack helps make efficient use of wall space while keeping materials accessible and properly supported.

How It Helps Your Operation:
The MECO SU8 helps your operation improve material flow, reduce floor clutter, and create a safer, more efficient storage area. By keeping long and bulky items stored off the floor and organized by size, type, or usage, your team can find materials faster and reduce product damage caused by poor stacking or overcrowded storage areas. The adjustable arm design makes it easier to adapt the rack as your inventory changes, while the starter unit format gives you a complete first bay that can be expanded with compatible add-on units. Always load arms evenly and do not exceed upright capacity when configuring the system.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What are MECO Series 4000 Cantilever Rack Systems used for?
MECO Series 4000 Cantilever Rack Systems are used to store long, bulky, or irregular materials such as pipe, tubing, lumber, bar stock, conduit, panels, and structural steel. They are commonly used in warehouses, fabrication shops, lumber yards, and industrial storage areas to keep oversized materials organized and off the floor.
How do heavy-duty cantilever racks improve facility organization?
Heavy-duty cantilever racks improve facility organization by providing a defined storage location for long materials, reducing floor clutter, and helping workers find materials faster. They support items horizontally, making products easier to identify and access, and reducing damage from stacking materials on the floor.
What is the difference between a starter unit and an add-on unit?
A starter unit creates the first complete cantilever rack bay with two uprights, straight arms, and brace sets. An add-on unit connects to an existing starter unit to extend the rack row, allowing facilities to expand storage without buying another complete standalone bay.
What key features should buyers know about MECO Series 4000 racks?
MECO Series 4000 racks feature upright height options of 8 ft, 10 ft, and 12 ft, an open-front design for easy access, and straight arms for supporting long materials in organized horizontal rows. They are built for normal heavy-duty industrial storage needs.
What should a facility consider before ordering a cantilever rack system?
Before ordering a cantilever rack system, facilities should consider material length, load weight, ceiling height, aisle space, forklift access, and potential future expansion to ensure a safer and more efficient storage layout.
