ABSTRACT:
A pallet comprises a plurality of stringers extending longitudinally and a plurality of decking members extending transversely. As folded from corrugated paperboard, each stringer has an upper panel and six panels on each side of a generally vertical plane intersecting the upper panel. The panels on each side include an outer panel extending downwardly and outwardly from the upper panel, an outer panel extending inwardly from the downwardly and outwardly extending outer panel, an inner panel extending upwardly from the inwardly extending outer panel and secured to the like panel on the other side, an inner panel extending outwardly from the upwardly extending inner panel and secured adhesively to the upper panel, an inner panel extending downwardly and inwardly from the outwardly extending inner panel, and an inner panel extending outwardly from the downwardly and inwardly extending inner panel and secured adhesively to the inwardly extending outer panel. As folded from corrugated paperboard, each decking member has a generally planar upper edge and extends through aligned apertures in the downwardly and outwardly extending outer panels, the downwardly and inwardly extending inner panels, and the upwardly extending inner panels. The upper edges of the decking members are secured adhesively to the outwardly extending inner panels. Two longitudinally spaced sets of aligned slots in the downwardly and outwardly extending outer panels, in the downwardly and inwardly extending inner panels, and in the upwardly extending inner panels accommodate a lift fork.
