Conveyor Support Stand, H-Stand, Light- to Medium-Duty, 1,800 lb Stand Load Capacity

Mobile caster-mount conveyor support stands are H-style stands with casters that allow the stands to roll so they can be moved between different locations in a facility. The casters have brakes that can be engaged to prevent the stand from rolling once it is in place. These stands are ideal for conveying applications such as loading docks, portable assembly lines, temporary extensions to stationary conveyors, and inflow or outflow zones for fabrication processes. H-stands bolt to sections of unpowered (gravity-flow) or powered conveyors to support the conveyor, and the height of the stands can be adjusted to create a level or sloped conveying surface. The stands must have a load capacity that exceeds the combined weight of the conveyor section and the items being moved on the conveyor.

Conveyor support stands hold up the sections of a conveyor, and the height of each conveyor stand can be adjusted to create a level or sloped conveying surface. The load capacity of the stands must be greater than the weight of the conveyor sections the stands are supporting and the items being moved on the conveyor. Increasing the number of stands under a conveyor section will increase the maximum load capacity of the conveyor section. A minimum of two stands is required for a conveyor with one section, and a minimum of three stands is required for every two conveyor sections in conveyors with more than one section. They are commonly used on conveying systems in warehouses, package handling areas, manufacturing and assembly facilities, and distribution centers.
