Dexion K40 Medium-Duty Cantilever Racking, Double-Sided

Dexion K40 cantilever racking for long and awkward items

Pallet racking is ideal for pallets, but long goods often create compromises: overhang, unstable stacks, and repeated re-handling just to reach the right length. Cantilever racking solves that by supporting the load on projecting arms. You keep the front clear, you can see what you have, and you can pick one bundle without dismantling the whole stack.

The K40 model sits in the medium-duty range. In simple terms, it is intended for loads that are heavier than light-duty workshop storage, while remaining practical for daily handling and mixed inventories. If you are unsure which duty class you need, start with the heaviest and most awkward bundle you handle today. That is usually the item that drives the specification.

What you can store on a medium-duty cantilever rack

This double-sided cantilever racking is commonly used for long goods such as:

• Steel bars and rod stock
• Pipes and tubes in different diameters
• Bundled profiles and long packaged items
• Long timber packs or similar length goods

Double-sided cantilever rack layout

A double-sided cantilever design stores material on both sides of each upright. That makes it a practical way to increase capacity without spreading long goods across the building. In a typical layout, one rack row can serve two aisles, and you can decide whether each side is dedicated to a material group or whether both sides carry similar stock.

For many warehouses, a double-sided run becomes the main long-goods zone. Inbound bundles can be placed directly onto the arms, and picking stays predictable because every length has a defined home. It also helps keep walkways clear, which matters when long goods are being moved by forklift.
