Ideal Warehouse Column Guard Safety Yellow 60-5720 60-5720-A GLO-B2216746

THE COLUMNS OF A FACILITY ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE BUILDING AND SUPPORT THE WEIGHT OF THE ROOF/STRUCTURE KNOWN AS A VERTICAL LOAD. IMPACTS AT THE LOWER PARTS OF COLUMNS REDUCE THE CAPACITY OF THE COLUMN TO CONTINUE TO SUPPORT VERTICAL LOADS THUS AN IMPACT TO A COLUMN KNOWN AS A HORIZONTAL LOAD COULD CREATE EXPENSIVE REPAIR WORK DOWN TIME AND IN THE WORST CASE A ROOF/BUILDING COLLAPSE. UNLIKE CONVENTIONAL COLUMN GUARDING METHODS IDEAL WAREHOUSE'S COLUMN GUARD STOPS THE FORKLIFT PALLET TRUCK AND OTHER WAREHOUSE VEHICLES FROM IMPACTING THE COLUMN OR TRANSFERRING THE IMPACT LOAD. WHILE MOST OTHER COLUMN PROTECTION METHODS EMPLOY A CUSHIONING DEVICE THAT ABSORBS SOME OF THE IMPACT SHOCK THEY DO NOT PREVENT THE IMPACT.
