Sturdy Basic A -Frame Rack -Y

Product Description – Basic A-Frame Rack (Model AJ-Y)

The AJ-Y Basic A-Frame Rack is a robust, welded steel storage stand purpose-built for the vertical or near-vertical holding of heavy, flat materials such as granite, marble, quartz, glass, and large-format tile. Finished in a durable industrial red/orange coating, this rack combines a space-saving A-frame geometry with heavy-duty channel-steel feet to deliver reliable support in demanding fabrication shops, stone yards, warehouses, and job-site laydown areas. Supplied as a matched pair (2 pieces per set), the AJ-Y offers a load capacity of 10 tonnes (22,046 lbs) and a net weight of approximately 38 kg (83–127 lbs per set / 38 kg as rated) with overall dimensions of 1500 × 800 × 1400 mm (59" × 3-1/8" × 55-1/8") and a pack/footprint width of 500 + 500 mm (19-5/8" + 19-5/8").

Primary Uses / Applications

• Vertical storage and organization of stone slabs (granite, marble, engineered stone), glass panels, acrylic sheets, and ceramic slabs.
• Supporting countertop blanks, facade panels, and architectural cladding during fabrication, edge polishing, or prior to installation.
• Display and inventory management in stone showrooms, building-material warehouses, and glass processing facilities.
• Temporary on-site storage where materials must be kept upright, accessible, and protected from surface damage.
• Yard and container storage (as shown in application photo) for bundled or individual slabs.

Key Features

• Heavy-Duty 10T Rating:​ Rated load capacity of 10 tonnes (22,046 lbs) per set to handle dense stone and industrial panels with confidence.
• Classic A-Frame Design:​ The ladder-style triangular frames provide excellent rigidity and a low center of gravity, resisting lateral movement and tipping.
• Channel-Steel Base (Conventional Style):​ The U-channel / lipped feet help cradle slab edges, reduce direct contact, and minimize chipping or scratching of fragile materials.
• Compact yet Functional Footprint:​ With a put-width of 500 + 500 mm and a put-height of 2200 mm (86-5/8"), it accommodates standard slab dimensions while conserving floor space.
• Cross-Braced Stability:​ Integrated horizontal and diagonal bracing between frames enhances structural integrity under load.
• Industrial Protective Finish:​ Anti-corrosion paint coating improves visibility in busy work zones and withstands daily workshop wear.
• 2-Piece Set (2PC):​ Supplied as a pair to ensure balanced, symmetrical support for long or wide panels.
• Easy to Position:​ Relatively light net weight (~38 kg) allows for manual positioning or fork/frame handling into place.

Typical Usage Scenarios

• Stone Fabrication Workshops:​ Holding slabs during cutting, polishing, or edge profiling operations.
• Stone & Glass Warehouses:​ Organizing inventory vertically to maximize floor space and keep materials readily accessible.
• Container / Tent Storage:​ As illustrated, ideal for indoor or sheltered yard storage, keeping materials secure and off the ground.
• Construction & Renovation Sites:​ Temporary staging of facade stone, wall cladding, or large tile panels.
• Retail / Showroom Display:​ Presenting slab options to contractors and customers in an upright, browse-friendly manner.

Safety Precautions & Handling Guidelines

1. Observe Load Limits:​ Never exceed the rated capacity of 10T (22,046 lbs) per set. Distribute weight evenly across both A-frames.
2. Stable Footing:​ Place on a firm, level, and non-slip surface. Avoid soft, uneven, or inclined ground unless properly blocked or shimmed.
3. Proper Loading:​ Load materials vertically or at the designed angle within the frame; ensure the center of gravity remains inside the base footprint to prevent overturning.
4. Secure the Load:​ Always use straps, chains, or appropriate restraints to stabilize slabs during storage, especially in windy conditions or when in a temporary structure/container.
5. Lifting & Handling:​ When using cranes or forklifts, lift slabs clear of the rack—do not drag or slide materials across the channel bases, as this can damage both the load and the rack.
6. PPE:​ Personnel should wear safety boots, gloves, helmets, and eye protection when working near stacked or suspended slabs.
7. Routine Inspection:​ Regularly check welds, bolts, base channels, and the paint/frame for cracks, corrosion, or deformation. Remove from service if compromised.
8. No Improvised Use:​ Do not use the frame as a ladder, platform, or for any purpose other than material support. Do not overload or stack materials beyond the designed height/weight.
9. Aisle Clearance:​ Maintain adequate space around the rack for safe access, lifting equipment maneuvering, and emergency egress.
