Upright 
frames are 44 times more resistant to torsional fork truck impacts than open back 
designs
 Many 
new rack buyers opt for the SK2000-style tubular design, and users of existing 
open back (roll formed) boltless rack replace damaged upright frames 
with new SK2000 frames to lessen impact dangers and eliminate maintenance costs. Because SK2000 uses "tear drop" connections, these users 
are able to upgrade while reusing their existing load beams. Frame has full 
diagonal-and horizontal bracing throughout the upright frame height.

 - A formed ridge on the column's face provides additional steel surface 
 area, increasing cross-section strength and rigidity
- Closed, seamless tubing used for all components - columns, 
 braces, and beams
- High-strength closed tubular design has 250% more frontal impact 
 strength than a comparable open back column 
- Welds between braces and column are full fillet welds, providing more 
 strength than spot-welds on other rack systems. 
- Frames feature a tapered keyhole connection slot, interchangeable 
 with many other rack systems
- Holes are placed on the column's face, not the corners, minimizing 
 strength loss
- Allows 2" vertical beam adjustments 
- Heavy 10-gauge footpads are flush with the column's sides, allowing for full seating of 
 floor level load beams
- Footpads are welded directly to the uprights, dispersing the column load 
 more efficiently than conventional lighter footpads
- A formed ridge on the footpad allows for easy nesting of shim plates
- Multiple offset anchor holes on footpad allow for re-anchoring in cases where rebar interferes with anchoring. 
 
RMI Certified
All SK2000 storage rack products are certified RMI 1997; confirming that it 
abides by the most stringent safety procedures. This means that the rack meets 
or exceeds industry safety standards; that it met an independent review and 
certification of manufacturer load tables; is compliant to a Global standard, 
and complies to the default standard for 2000 IBC.
 Powder Coat Finishing
Powder Coat Finishing
SK2000 is painted with a high-durability powder coat paint 
finish. Powder coated products offer better resistance to water and corrosion, 
better gloss, hardness, and adhesion. In fact, Steel King powder coated products 
give you:
 
 - 
 
60% greater resistance to solvents 
 
- 
 
74% greater resistance to salt sprays 
 
- 
 
94% greater resistance to impact 
 
This means your rack looks better, requires less maintenance, 
and lasts longer. Buying powder-coated products is better for the environment 
too. Unlike liquid paints, powder coat paints do not emit fumes into the air.
