ABSTRACT:
A loading member with a substantially L-shaped cross section and which jointly with a corresponding loading member may be arranged at the bottom of a box, each member being provided at one of two respective parallel lower edges of the box. The loading members are retained in close abutment with the box by means of circumferential straps or packaging film, whereby the members form feet for the box. A first web of the L-section is provided with at least two pressed hollow projections on the surface intended to face a supporting surface of the loading member. Two of these projections have an interspacing of at least half the length of the member. The width of the projections is less than or equal to half the width of the first web. The projections substantially abut an edge at which the webs of the L-section converge. As a result, a comparatively light loading member is obtained and it is further ensured that the forks of a fork-lift truck can be inserted beneath a loading member when two identical loading members are mounted on two parallel lower edges of the box without causing significant damage to or wear of the loading member.
