Rack Armour introduction Rack Armour - different sizes available

Have you ever thought about just how much time, effort and money you it costs to replace damaged pallet racking?
Rack Armour is an innovative rack protection device which signifies a departure from old methods of upright protection.

Rack Armour - available in different sizes (small, medium or large). Made from Ballistics Grade Plastic - No rust or dents (withstands heavy impacts).

Have you ever thought about just how much time, effort and money you it costs to replace damaged pallet racking?

Rack Armour is an innovative rack protection device which signifies a departure from old methods of upright protection.

Rack Armour - so strong, so simpleRack Armours strength is in it's simplicity - it simply clips onto your existing or new racking without the need for further fixings and quite simply, it works!

We know you're busy, we know you're budgets are tight and we know Rack Armour can work for you too. Rack Armour Benefits

Benefits of installing Rack Armour:

• Made from Ballistics Grade Plastic - No rust, no dents and has the ability to reform after impacts
• No fixings required - no drilling in to your floor, faster, easier and simple to install
• High visibility colour as standard - is easier to see thus reducing the likelihood of impacts occurring
• Available in Red and Green colours - for fire exits, safety equipment or traffic management systems/one way routes
• Fits all types and makes of racking - no special profiles required and can be transferred between different types of racking. Only Small, medium or large are required
• The guard has a rounded shape with a high density polyethylene outer deflector and a tough foam inner diffuser - impacts are more likely to be deflected and any forces are diffused throughout its length
• The guard is only 100mm wide when installed to standard racking - absolute minimum bay and aisle intrusion so as not to reduce your safe operating clearances
• The guard can operate down to - 40C - Extremely tough materials where you need to get in and out fast

Rack Armour Features 1 DETECTION:

Rack Armour aims in the first instance to avoid impact from occurring. Its conspicuous colouring and shape provides a clear indictor to Mechanical Handling Equipment operators for their safe operating boundaries. In particular, whilst MHE operators' central vision is concentrating on loads at height, the Rack Armour enhances its position in the peripheral vision, thus reducing the major cause of chronic damage to Racking Uprights.

2 DEFLECTION:

The external 'deflector' component is made from ballistics grade High Density Polyethylene. The curved shape gives this component a low friction coefficient with high deflecting properties. The same design principles used in sloped armour on Battle tank turrets together with load distributing abilities of an arch bridge make this component the key element in its strength. Unlike some other rack protection products Polyethylene has 'persistence of shape' which means when Rack Armour receives an impact, it has the ability to return to its original shape. The simultaneous deflecting and diffusing action of the deflector will greatly reduce the impact forces from being transmitted to the vulnerable front and lateral faces of your racking uprights.

3 DIFFUSION:

The internal 'shock diffuser' component is of such a shape and form so as to provide a flush interface between the internal profile of the 'shock isolator' component and the various types of external profiles of different manufacturing types of racking uprights. The 'shock isolator' component encapsulates the front face and portions of the lateral sides of the upright. This component is manufactured from closed cell polyethylene foam, a very tough and durable material. The shape, mass, density and internal structure of the shock isolator has such properties so as to induce inertia and an exaggerated path to shock forces. Rack Armour Testing

Independent testing of Rack ArmourRack Armour has undergone independent testing by Cardno (NSW) Pty Ltd, one of Australia's leading consulting engineering companies.

David Beneke, Principal at Cardno supervised the testing and has confirmed that Rack Armour meets the standards set down for racking protection devices in FEM 10.2.02. Rack Armour - exceeding safety standardsFEM 10.2.02 is the European testing standard upon which AS 4084 is based. FEM is the most internationally recognised and one of the most up to date (having been updated in 2001) of all testing standards. Rack Armour has met and exceeded the requirements of this standard for both front and side impacts, as certified by an expert, independent source.
