ABSTRACT:
A pallet for absorbing fork lifting force. The pallet includes lengthwise extending stringers having opposite ends connected to end members. Cross members extend across the width of the pallet providing a supporting surface. Pin shaped fasteners extend horizontally through downwardly extending walls of the end members and into the opposite ends of the stringers. Lifting force applied to the end members is directed via the downwardly extending walls and across the horizontally extending fasteners in a vertical direction and then to the stringers eliminating any withdrawal force applied to the fasteners. The preferred embodiment includes outwardly bowed cross members to maximize pallet supporting surface in contact with coils supported thereatop.
