PLASTIC PALLET HAVING METAL DECK

摘要

A molded plastic pallet (320) has a base (330) comprised of steel beam-reinforced thermoplastic rails (331) reinforced with steel beams (374), vertical columns (328), a frame (324) on top of the columns, and a textured metal deck (322). The metal deck preferably comprises a flange, which is attached to the frame or to a subframe (66), which is within the opening of the frame. The edge of the deck is inset from the outer edge of the frame, and the periphery of the top of the frame is exposed. The frame preferably has one or more impact absorbing zones at the bridge portions (325) of the frame, which span the fork openings (334) between adjacent columns.
