A twin sheet plastic pallet comprising an upper plastic sheet and a lower plastic sheet selectively fused to the upper sheet. The lower sheet has a generally rectangular configuration, including sidewalls and end walls, and includes a plurality of separate parallel upwardly opening longitudinally extending U-shaped grooves extending from end to end of the sheet and a plurality of downwardly opening U-shaped grooves interspersed between the upwardly opening grooves and opening in the end walls of the sheet. The upper sheet defines a top wall, defining the platform surface of the pallet, and a plurality of upwardly opening U-shaped protrusions extending downwardly from the top wall and sized to nest within the upwardly opening grooves of the lower sheet, whereby with the upper sheet positioned over the lower sheet and the protrusions positioned in the upwardly opening grooves, the sheets may be fused together to form double thickness U-shaped wall structures at the interfaces of the protrusions and the upwardly opening grooves. The pallet further includes a pair of longitudinally extending metallic beams positioned between the upper and lower sheets, and laterally aligned slots are formed in the U-shaped wall structures to allow passage of the forks of a forklift truck. |
