1. GENERAL: Shelving shall be of the type produced by
STORTEC SYSTEMS CO. It shall
carry
the approval of the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF)
2. MATERIAL: Shelves shall be bright basic carbon
steel wire. Posts shall be cold
rolled
carbon steel tubing, electric welded.
3. FINISH: Dark
green color. Surface preparation of steel to be zinc phosphate with epoxy
powder coating electrostatically applied and thermostatically cured to a
tough, hard
finish. Ten year warranty against rust and corrosion.
4.
SHELVES: Construction shall be of open wire design offering greater light
penetration
and visibility, lighter weight, air
circulation and minimal dust and dirt accumulation.
5.
FABRICATION; Face ribs shall run
front to back equally spaced on 13/16 centers
and to be
of 9 gauge (0.148)
wire. Each side (four) of
shelf shall consist of a corrugated, reinforcing
truss of 6 gauge (0.192)
wire. At the front and back of the shelf, this corrugated, reinforcing
shall be welded to Ό (0.250) rib wire running perpendicular and above the face ribs. A Ό
(0.250) rib shall be welded to the
bottom of the truss. At the ends of the shelf, the corrugated
reinforcing truss shall be welded to
parallel Ό (0.250) wire ribs. Depending upon the width
and length of the shelf, it shall have
three or five longitudinal ribs (0.192wire)
welded to the
face ribs. In addition, certain longer
lengths shall have one or two corrugated reinforcing
trusses (0.192) welded to the underside.
At each corner of the shelf there shall be a tapered,
conical fitting made of 12 gauge (0.104)
cold rolled steel to the parallel rib supports. The fitting
shall be designed to accommodate the
vertical supports. The corrugated truss shall be in the
shape of the letter W.
6. POSTS: Shall be of 1 O.D. . round steel tubing, 16 gauge
(0.062) thickness. They shall
have
rolled grooves spaced at 1 on
centers along their length. The top of the post shall have a
a finished plastic cap and the post
bottom shall have a die cast insert threaded with an
adjustable leveling foot. At each
rolled groove there shall be consecutive numbers starting at
the bottom of the post to facilitate
installation of shelf clips.
7. METHOD OF ASSEMBLY: Shall be of the Frustal-Conical design
incorporating a two part
tapered plastic clip. Engagement and
locking shall be accomplished with a protruding
bead on the inner circumference of
the plastic clip which will match the groove in the post. Two
plastic clips shall be attached to
each corner post for each shelf. Both the clips and the
corner fitting of the shelves shall
have the identical taper to create a wedge effect, thereby
locking the shelf securely in a rigid
position. No screws or other fittings shall be required to
effect this
assembly. Shelves shall be vertically adjustable on 1 increments.
8. LOAD CAPACITY; 600-800 lbs. Per shelf evenly distributed,
depending upon the size.
Maximum load per assembled unit not
to exceed 2000 lbs., without casters.
9. PACKING; Shelves are packed 4 to carton except 54,
60 and 72 lengths, which are packed
2 to a carton. Posts are packed 4 to
a carton.
