Herochu Heavy-Duty Warehouse Storage Cantilever Pipe Rack for Steel
Starting at USD 3,890 — Built for the Long, the Strong and the Unapologetically Awkward
Steel tube doesn’t politely arrive in cube-shaped cartons.
It shows up in 12 m sticks, oily, heavy, and in a mood to bend anything that underestimates it.
That “anything” used to be your floor space, your forklift tyres, and occasionally your Friday afternoon safety record.
Herochu’s heavy-duty cantilever pipe rack ends the argument: one operator, one lever, one clean pull-out, and the exact length you need is hovering at knee height—no timber dunnage, no Jenga stack, no overtime.
Why Cantilever Still Wins the Long-Load War
Pallet racks are brilliant—until the load outruns the pallet.
Vertical pipe towers save aisle room—until you need the middle bundle and the top tier decides to weld itself together with rust.
Floor stacking is free—until you price the square metres it swallows and the hernia claims it generates.
Cantilever is the only geometry that removes the front column entirely, turning every arm into a crane boom that admits defeat to nothing longer than the building itself.
Four Pre-Engineered Giants, One Custom Button

Need 15 m arms? 7 t per shelf? A hot-dip coat for coastal humidity?
Hit the “custom” button—same price algorithm, 18-day lead time, full FEM 10.2.08 calculation included.
Steel That Forgives Bad Days
Columns: Q235B hot-rolled, 450 mm deep “I” profile, 6 mm web, 18 mm return lip.
Arms: 300 mm taper, 8 mm root thickness, welded both sides then 100 % mag-particle inspected.
Base weldments: closed-box design, moment-resisting, absorbs 4 t fork impact at –20 °C without cracking.
Safety factor: 1.8 on yield, 2.2 on buckling—because pipe schedules swell, coatings thicken, and nobody ever complains that a rack was “too strong”.
Load Accessibility That Makes Forklifts Polite
100 % extendable arms on sealed polymer bearings—pull 5 t like opening a desk drawer.
Auto-lock at 85 % extension prevents roll-out accidents; release pedal unlocks in 0.8 s for fast stow.
Clear under-arm height 650 mm—enough for a 4 t Telehandler with 600 mm forks plus safety clearance.
Colour-coded arm stops: yellow for 3 t, red for 5 t—visual overload prevention when the Monday-morning rush hits.
Space Efficiency That Pays Rent
A 12 m bilateral bay stores 40 t of steel pipe in 4.2 m² floor space—equivalent density 9.5 t/m².
Compare to traditional floor stacking: same 40 t needs 28 m² and a 4 m working aisle on both sides.
Translation: every Herochu bay returns 23 m² of productive floor. At $18/m² industrial rent that is $414/month saved per bay—$49 680 over ten years, enough to buy the rack twice over.
Outdoor Toughness Without the Tarps
Optional roof canopy: 0.7 mm corrugated sheet, 2 % pitch, integrated gutter, lightning tab.
Zinc coating 85 µm (EN ISO 1461) plus UV-stable polyester top-coat—25-year corrosion warranty.
Wind bracing calculated to EN 1991-1-4 for 120 km/h gusts—keep the rack, lose the anxiety.
Drains pre-punched in base plates—no standing water, no ice jacking, no rust blooms.
Safety That Shows Up on the Insurance Ledger
Fork impact guard: 6 mm wrap-around steel, bolt-on replaceable, absorbs 4 000 J.
Arm safety pin: forged 1045 steel, 1 500 kg shear, single-motion release.
Column protectors: polymer/steel hybrid, yellow reflective tape, snap-fit in 30 s.
Annual inspection tag holder baked into every column—your maintenance team can’t lose it if it’s welded.
ROI Faster Than You Can Say “Schedule-40”
Scenario: 50 t daily throughput, two operators, $30/hour all-in.
Before: floor stacking, 25 min per pick, 200 picks/month = 83 labour-hours.
After: cantilever drawer, 4 min per pick = 13 labour-hours.
Monthly saving: 70 h × $30 = $2 100.
Payback on HC-G9055D ($4 890) = 2.3 months.
Over 10 years: $252 000 labour saved, 1 260 m² floor freed, zero lost-time injuries.
Show those numbers to your CFO and watch the purchase order appear faster than a mag-drill through 6 mm wall.
