Things To Note When Using Plastic Pallets

1. When using pallets with hydraulic trucks and forklifts, the distance between the outer edges of the forks should be as wide as possible to the outer edge of the pallet's fork entry, and the fork entry depth should be greater than 2/3 of the entire pallet depth.
2. Hydraulic trucks and forklifts should maintain a uniform speed when moving the pallet forward, backward, and up and down to avoid sudden braking and turning, which may cause damage to the pallet and collapse of the goods.
3. When placing the pallet on the shelf, the pallet should be placed stably on the shelf beam, and the length of the pallet should be at least 50 mm greater than the outer diameter of the shelf beam. Which plastic pallet is suitable for use in cold storage or high-intensity use environments? At plus or minus 40°C, polypropylene cannot be used. Polypropylene is not resistant to low temperatures. If you need to put pallets on shelves in cold storage, it is best to use double-sided pallets. If the goods are not so heavy, you can choose Tian-shaped or Sichuan-shaped pallets. Another: When used in low-temperature environments, practice has proven that modified polypropylene can be fully qualified. Modified polypropylene is a high-temperature incomplete polymerization product of polyethylene and polypropylene. It combines the toughness of polypropylene with the low temperature resistance of polyethylene, stable physical properties, wear resistance and fall resistance. It is generally recommended to use this material in large chemical companies, low-temperature cold storage and other environments.
4. Plastic pallets produced from low-pressure high-density polyethylene can be used. Plastic pallets produced from pure raw materials can withstand low temperatures of minus 30°C. High-strength blow molded pallets that are extruded and blow molded in one step are generally blow molded using HMWHDPE plastic, with a weight average molecular weight of about 350,000 to 400,000; this plastic raw material has strong adaptability to ambient temperature Ability to be used stably in an environment of -40~40℃, it is the first choice plastic pallet for high-intensity use environments. Due to the high cost of plastic raw materials selected for this high-strength blow molding pallet, the technical difficulty of the processing process is high, and the use of the product The life span is particularly long, which can reach 5 to 10 years. Although the one-time purchase price will be higher, the comprehensive use cost is indeed lower. When high-strength use is required, you can choose this high-strength blow molding tray.
