PALLET RACK REPAIR ENGINEERING

Beam Fastener Testing Data

Packer Engineering Group (PEG)  

Two separate types of proprietary fasteners were tested for use in securing either roll form or structural pallet racking beams to Mac Rak Elite series repair kits. (Elite Vertical, Elite Cantilever, Elite Slope Leg) 

The following four types of tests were conducted to determine key mechanical properties of these fasteners with interaction with Mac Rak Elite repair kits 

1. Pull out test. 

2. Drive in torque test (run only on the self-drilling Tek Screw style bolts). 

3. Torque failure test. 

4. Shear test. 

Test conclusion: these two separate types of proprietary fasteners are stronger than original OEM fasteners.
