ABSTRACT:
A pallet or skid is disclosed for use in material handling. The pallet, preferably formed of metal, may be rigidly assembled or disassembled without the use of welding or fasteners, or the like. The pallet has a plurality of longitudinal deck panels for horizontal parallel location to form a load bearing surface. The deck panels have longitudinal resilient edge portions defining a plurality of spaced-apart slots. A plurality of spaced-apart stringer members are provided for transversely engaging the deck members, with the deck members passing through openings in the stringer members. The stringer member openings are dimensioned to provide retaining portions, so that upon transverse deflection of the deck member edge portions, the deck members may slide through the stringer member openings until the slots register with the retaining portions causing the deck members to snap and lock into position in the stringer members.
