Solid Steel Panels Of Industrial Pallet Racking Storage Systems
Accessories
Steel panels are engineered in storage racking systems for extra
rigidity and support having wide application cases. In selective
pallet racks, steel panels can be utilized to create a heavy-duty
shelf for both palletized and unpalletized cargo storage.
For mezzanine racking, solid steel panels are often used as the
second flooring material for walking and storing. The reasons that
solid steel panel is so popular due to their strength, fireproof,
cost-saving, and long-time-durability.

In mezzanine racking system, steel panels are often galvanized with
the required thickness and size. Compared to traditional plywood or
solid wood flooring, galvanized steel panels can endure more abuse
having longer life span. More importantly, steel materials have
better fireproof performance which is an important consideration
for many warehouse owners.
In standard pallet racking system, steel panels can be quickly and
easily added into storage levels matching beam length in width.
Several pieces of steel panels work together to complete one
storage level allowing flexible material handling by men or by
forklifts. Steel panels can be powder coated or galvanized as the
following pictures indicated. With flat level, small hand-picking
items can also be stored in the racking system that won't fall
down.
To choose the proper steel panels for your storage system, surface
treatment, material thickness and panel quantity for each level are
major considerations. Measure the length of the beams first, then
use the beam length to divide the panel width, you can easily get
the necessary amount of panels for each level.
The steel thickness will be determined by the load capacity of this
layer you can get advice from your supplier. Last but not least,
you may still wonder about powder-coated finishing and galvanized
surface treatment. Though both can provide smooth and strong
storage layer, they have some differences that may help you decide.
Obviously, powder-coated steel panels offer you more color options
that you can customize to your personal preferences like safety
eye-catching orange or dirt-hiding grey. Galvanized steel panels
are relatively expensive but have better corrosion resistance. The
spotless and sparkling surface is perfect for products that require
strict cleanliness and hygiene like food and medicine.
