Found me some blue today too! Finally. Had to find a different driver. Been looking for orange to match my regular set but love the blue too. Good thing my alma mater is blue and orange

Also got a Mother's Day gift with it.

He had a few other blue items but my wallet had issues. Hammers. Adjustable wrenches, regular blue driver set. Wire striper and a few pliers. Hopefully be some left next week. Hoping he gets a blue ratcheting driver as well.
Where did you get that from ? I want one![]()
If your into 4x4, I could see that being a really kick *** stick shift knob.
If you're talking about that massive 1.5" impact swivel...no way! It's way too heavy. It would pop out of gear with every bump you hit, and play hell with your syncro's!

How much does each tote weigh when it's full?Well I apologize for only adding comments to this thread instead of pictures, but. I didn't know those racks could handle THAT much weightHow much does each tote weigh when it's full?
Pallet racking can hold insane amounts of weight when spec'd right, look at how much is stacked on the stuff in warehouses.
Oil is not super heavy but washer fluid and antifreeze both are as is DEF even though it is on the floor.
Even so there is no more than 3000lbs on each shelf. Each side column is rated for 18,000lbs in the configuration we have it set at which put the first beam high off the ground. If we put a beam at 36" off the ground they would each be rated for over 38,000lbs. Each beam is rated for 12,000lbs each. That would mean 24,000lbs per shelf or 48,000lbs total.
Needless to say I am not worried, but years back before I knew anything about pallet racking I had the same doubts as you.
Correct. Oil is less dense than water. That's why oil sits on top when placed in water.Oil is not super heavy but washer fluid and antifreeze both are as is DEF even though it is on the floor.

You talk about the ratings of the actual steel I assume but what can those pins that lock it in place hold? You know those bolts/pins whatever you call them that stick out and slide into the holes on the columns. I would be concerned about them not the actual steel columns and beams themselves. All the weight is resting on those pins.
In our warehouse, ours are put together with standard 1/2" Grade 5 bolts. The stickers on them say they are good for 8800lbs per shelf. The pallets of drinks you see are 2100lbs each.
A typical Grade 5 bolt is rated for just under 15,000lbs shear strength. I'm fine with that. 4 bolts can lift your typical tractor-trailer![]()
The silver pin on the shelf in the picture above only prevent the shelf from lifting up, the shelf itself has fingers built in that grab the upright columns.
The shelf in question is not even close to being stressed.
