What Are Coil Racks?

A coil rack is a specialized industrial storage system designed to safely store and handle heavy metal coils (steel, aluminium, copper). It features curved cradles and reinforced steel construction that prevents cylindrical coils from rolling while supporting thousands of pounds.
Key features include vertical stacking capability for space efficiency, forklift compatibility, and modular design for different coil sizes. Industries like steel manufacturing, automotive, and metalworking use coil racks to prevent roll-away hazards, protect materials from damage, and comply with OSHA safety standards.
The specialized curved design distributes weight evenly and eliminates the safety risks associated with floor storage of heavy cylindrical materials.
