RS PRO Steel Grey Open Starter Bay, 2100 mm x 500 mm x 500 mm

The basic unit required to construct the first bay. Dimensions : 2.1m x 1m

The RS modular shelving system has been designed as an integrated system in which each part slots together into standard modules. The shelf design incorporates a built-in box beam concept which creates inherent strength and rigidity as well as simplifying installation. A versatile system which is quick, easy and simple to erect or modify, with no nut and bolt assembly of the shelving. The uprights are perforated at 50 mm intervals to accept shelves that clip lock together with special shelf locking clips which have a wedging action when loaded, the greater the load, the stronger the structure. All major components are manufactured from steel with ’graphite’ grey uprights and light (RAL7035) grey shelves and cladding paint finish. Available in open bay or clad bay versions, height 2.1 m, width 1 m, with a selection of shelf depths and accessories.

Open starter bay units include one rear cross-brace.

The maximum safe working load per shelf is 160kg, to be uniformly distributed in both directions, maximum load per bay 1200kg.
Also: All runs of shelving require bracing. This must be in the form of a rear cross-brace assembly or a rear cladding kit and must be fitted at least one bay in six.
