The Vestil SDSP-4048 steel solid-deck pallet has fork openings on two sides and two open ends, can be used to support and transport goods, and can be lifted using a pallet truck or forklift truck (sold separately). The pallet is made of galvanized steel, which is resistant to wear, rust, and corrosion. This pallet has a static load capacity of 4,000 lb., a dynamic load capacity of 3,500 lb., and an unsupported pallet rack load capacity of 2,500 lb. It weighs 63 lb. and measures approximately 6 x 40 x 48 inches (H x W x D). (H is height, the vertical distance from lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back.) Each fork opening measures approximately 2 x 8 inches (H x W). The opening on each end measures approximately 3 x 35 inches. This product is intended for use in professional and industrial environments.
Pallets are low platforms that can support heavy loads, and that can be lifted and transported using a pallet truck or forklift truck. Pallets can be made of wood, polyethylene, steel, aluminum, cardboard, or other materials. Loads may be bundled and secured to the pallet using straps or stretch wrap. Four-way pallets can be lifted and moved with a pallet truck or forklift truck from any side. Pallets may be color-coded for identifying and segregating different types of loads, or to indicate load capacity. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) recognizes six standard pallet sizes, with the most common size in North America being 48 x 40 inches (W x D). Pallets without a bottom deck are called skids. Pallets can be used in warehouses, stockrooms, manufacturing and shipping facilities, and other industrial environments.
Vestil manufactures materials handling equipment, including hoists and trolleys, jib and gantry cranes, loading dock equipment, and storage solutions. The company, founded in 1968, is headquartered in Angola, IN.
