The Double Bar barrel rack offers strength and stability. It has a 7" opening, holds two barrels and is available powder coated mild steel in beige.
The Double Bar Rack with two pairs of connecting bars has replaced the single bar rack (with one pair of connecting bars) as the industry’s standard two-barrel topping rack. The double bar rack is stronger, not from the standpoint of compressive strength, but because it better resists “tweaking” when full barrels are inadvertently pushed along the floor with a forklift. Further, the double bar rack provides a safer situation when lifting barrels from the side, because the forks come in between the two sets of bars rather than simply under a single set. Thus, if the outside barrel is, for some reason, heavier than the barrel closer to the forklift, they might tilt but they shouldn’t fall. This rack has a 7” forklift opening which allows enough room to get your head between the barrels in a stack to see and smell.
