Plastic & Aluminum Extrusion Storage
Straight-Line Storage That Protects Every Profile
Dexco® racks give straight-line support that holds each profile true and protects the finish, with open access for fast, damage-free picking. Every system is engineered to your profiles, lengths, and weights.
Hold Profiles Straight
Long extrusions bow under uneven or light support. Wide-flange I-beam arms give straight-line support that keeps profiles true.
Protect Delicate Finishes
Scratches and dents scrap finished extrusions. Separated storage and open access prevent the handling damage that ruins product.
Keep Production Fed
Buried profiles stall the line. Open cantilever racks keep every extrusion visible and reachable for smooth material flow.
Fit Every Profile & Length
Extrusions come in many shapes. Vertically adjustable arms are engineered to hold your varied profiles and lengths in one system.

Cantilever Racking Systems
Provide direct access to flooring with an open-front design. Ideal for operations that prioritize fast loading and unloading.
Floor Racking Systems
A practical solution for heavy materials that don’t require elevated storage.
How the racking system is built
Standard construction
- Structural hot-rolled wide-flange I-beam steel (ASTM A572 Grade 50, 50 KSI)
- Even, distributed arm support for heavy finished-goods loads
- Bolted construction for strength and impact performance
- Cantilever arms up to 20,000 lbs each; floor and shelf configurations up to 80,000 lbs
Customizable options
- Cantilever and stanchion configurations match how you store and pick
- Arm spacing tailored to varied profiles, lengths, and bundle sizes
- Divided lanes for mixed diameters, grades, and materials
- Powder-coat finish for rust and wear protection; galvanized for corrosive settings
- PE-stamped engineering drawings available for an additional fee
Plastic & Aluminum Extrusion Storage FAQs
How do the racks keep extrusions from bowing?
Full-length cantilever arms and stanchion bays support each profile along its length, so long extrusions stay straight instead of sagging over gaps. Arm and bay spacing is engineered to your profiles so support matches the material.
How are delicate extrusion finishes protected?
Separated storage keeps profiles from rubbing, and the open-face design lets forklifts load and pull extrusions without dragging them across each other, avoiding the scratches and dents that scrap finished product.
Can one system store different extrusion profiles and lengths?
Yes. Vertically adjustable arms hold varied profiles, lengths, and bundle sizes in the same system, and reposition as your product mix changes. Stanchion layouts are available for bundled or floor-level storage.
How much weight can an extrusion rack hold?
Arms are engineered to your load, up to 20,000+ lbs each, with higher capacities available. Structural wide-flange I-beams carry heavy bundled extrusions with safety factors built in.
