What Is Drum Racking?

Drum racking, or coil racking, is a pallet-racking-derived system used to store industrial drums, metal coils, and other large cylindrical items. Unlike standard pallet racking, drum racking has the addition of cradles on the beams. Drums or coils are stored in these cradles to prevent them from moving or rolling, creating a safe work environment for your staff.

Steel coil racking can be used to store a range of products including:

• Steel coil
• Steel drums
• 44 gallon drums
• Bluescope coil
• Wire

Cradles

These coil cradles are made from thick steel and designed to withstand large weight loads. After welding, they are then electrostatically painted in order to prevent rust and visually stand out, creating an easy pick face for warehouse staff and allowing bulk storage of coil or drums. The product on the cradles is designed to be held in with angled steel, almost like a wedge or chock. Even if you accidentally bump the product or the cradle, you can be sure it won’t budge!

Floor-Mounted Coil Racking Systems

BGW INDIA also offers floor-mounted coil cradles. These are extremely robust and can withstand a great deal of weight, which is exactly what you need from ground-level storage. To prevent movement of the cradles, we dyna-bolt them to the ground, preventing them from being nudged or bumped by a forklift and causing damage to the rest of the racking system. If you are storing steel coil, metal coil, industrial drums or other cylindrical items, let the experts at BGW INDIA create and manufacture a steel coil storage system that works with you and your stock.
