ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a dunnage rack including a molded pallet having a plurality of legs with caster supports integrally secured thereto, and to a method of forming such a dunnage rack. The dunnage rack is formed by first providing a mold for the pallet. A lower end of each leg portion of the mold is then blanked off with a caster support. The caster supports include a base plate arranged to support a caster and a plurality of flanges which extend upwardly from the edge, of the base plate into the mold. The flanges have an irregular surface. In a preferred embodiment, the irregular surface is formed by a plurality of openings or apertures. A molding material introduced into the mold engages the flange irregular surface to secure the caster support to the pallet legs.
