Frequently asked questions
Common questions about HUSKY RACK from 3G Electric.
What sizes of Husky Rack & Wire teardrop step beams are available?
Husky Rack & Wire teardrop step beams are available in multiple lengths, including 48, 96, 108, and 144 inches. Depths range from 3 to 6 inches, and all beams have a height of 2-1/2 inches. For example, model IBX30048 is 48 inches long by 3 inches deep, while IBH60144 is 144 inches long by 6 inches deep. These beams are roll-formed from steel and finished in orange. The specific model number indicates the dimensions, so buyers should verify the required size against their rack system specifications.
What is the purpose of Husky Rack & Wire crossbars in a pallet rack system?
Husky Rack & Wire crossbars are horizontal steel members that span between beams to support wire decking or shelves. They provide lateral stability and help distribute loads. The crossbars are galvanized for corrosion resistance and are available in lengths of 36, 42, and 48 inches, with a profile of 3 inches by 1-5/8 inches. They are used in teardrop-style rack systems and are compatible with standard uprights. Crossbars are typically used when additional support is needed for smaller items or to create a flat surface for storage.
Are Husky Rack & Wire pallet rack components compatible with other brands?
Husky Rack & Wire teardrop step beams and crossbars are designed for use with teardrop-style uprights, which are a common industry standard. This means they may be compatible with uprights from other manufacturers that use the same teardrop connection pattern. However, compatibility should be verified by comparing the upright slot dimensions and beam connector design. For critical applications, consult the rack manufacturer or a qualified engineer to ensure proper fit and load capacity. 3G Electric provides part numbers and specifications to assist with cross-referencing.
What material and finish are Husky Rack & Wire crossbars made of?
Husky Rack & Wire crossbars are made of steel and have a galvanized finish. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance, making them suitable for environments where moisture or humidity may be present. The crossbars are roll-formed and measure 3 inches in height by 1-5/8 inches in depth, with lengths of 36, 42, or 48 inches. The galvanized finish is standard for these components, and they are designed to support wire decking or shelves in pallet rack systems.
How do I select the right Husky Rack & Wire step beam for my rack system?
To select the correct Husky Rack & Wire step beam, first determine the required beam length based on the distance between upright frames. Then, choose the beam depth that corresponds to the load capacity needed; deeper beams generally provide higher capacity. The beam height is consistently 2-1/2 inches for the step beams listed. Model numbers encode these dimensions: for example, IBX35096 is 96 inches long and 3-1/2 inches deep, while IBN55108 is 108 inches long and 5-1/2 inches deep. Verify that the beam connector matches your upright style, typically teardrop. Always adhere to the manufacturer's load capacity charts.
Does 3G Electric supply Husky Rack & Wire wire partitions?
Yes, 3G Electric supplies Husky Rack & Wire wire partitions as part of its catalog. Wire partitions are used to create secure enclosures within warehouses or plants, such as tool cribs, inventory cages, or machine guarding. The partitions are typically made of welded wire mesh panels with framing. Specific part numbers and sizes vary, so it is recommended to check the product listing or contact 3G Electric for available options.
