Is It better for manufacturing storage rack steel thicker

We all know that materials are one of the most important factors in product manufacturing, and only the right materials can make good products. Especially for storage devices like storage shelves, it is more important. Some people will ask if the better for steel thicker ?

Under certain circumstances, the thicker the material, the better its load-bearing performance, but this is not universal. For products such as storage shelves, the steels used are also graded. Different types of steel are suitable for different shelf manufacturing. It is not that the thicker the materials used in all warehouse shelves are, the better.

Customized storage shelves are commonly used Q235 steel, but there are many steel models, such as Q345, Q195 and so on. If the Q235 is compared with the Q195, the actual thickness of the former 1.5mm can achieve the same effect as the latter 2.0 thickness. And in general, Q235 material toughness and strength are also relatively good.

Customized shelves involve many real-world problems in the operation process. Such as the load bearing required by the shelf, the overall and partial structure of the shelf, how to design and calculate the cargo space, and the influence of the ground in the shelf installation and commissioning. These factors directly affect the choice of steel for storage shelves. Inappropriate choices not only increase their procurement costs, but also cause changes in production for shelf suppliers.

Do you think that the thicker the material, the stronger the shelf? We can provide the details to the manufacturer according to their needs when customizing the storage shelves. The manufacturer will give you the solution that suits you.
