Closed Column? Tubular Upright? How many times have you heard this and wondered what the difference is between an open and a closed column?

Wholesale Pallet Rack Products offers both, and its important to know what each is when replacing your customers frames as they are far from alike. Our goal is to help you the dealer become more knowledgeable when it comes to choosing the right product for your customer.

Tubular Column Uprights: Are constructed of closed column material. This means that the entire column is tubular and makes a solid piece construction. Many applications exist and are created with this design.

Open Back Uprights: Are constructed with an open back giving additional access to bolting hardware and the inside of the upright post. Paint coverage is more easily applied with the back being exposed.
