Frequently asked questions
Common questions about ECONOCO from 3G Electric.
What slot spacing and slot length do ECONOCO slotted standards use?
ECONOCO single slotted standards have 1-inch slot spacing and 1/2-inch slot length. This is a common standard in the shelving industry, ensuring compatibility with most brackets, hangrails, and accessories designed for slotted upright systems. The slot dimensions are consistent across ECONOCO's product line, including surface-mount standards and tubing brackets.
Are ECONOCO brackets and hangrails rated for heavy-duty use?
Yes, ECONOCO brackets, waterfalls, and hangrails are rated heavy duty. The steel construction with gauges of 16 or 17 ga provides sufficient strength for retail shelving loads, such as packaged goods or light industrial items. However, ECONOCO does not publish specific load ratings per bracket; engineers should verify load capacity through physical testing or consult the manufacturer for application-specific limits.
What finishes are available for ECONOCO slotted standards and brackets?
ECONOCO slotted standards are available in a zinc-plated silver finish. Brackets, waterfalls, and tubing accessories are offered in either zinc-plated or chrome finishes. The chrome finish provides a brighter, more reflective surface, while zinc-plated offers a matte silver appearance. Both finishes are corrosion-resistant for indoor use but are not rated for outdoor or wet environments.
Can ECONOCO components be used with double slotted standards?
Some ECONOCO components, such as the left and right end shelf rests (SKUs 45KT56 and 45KT57), are specified for use with single or double slotted standards. However, most brackets and hangrails in the ECONOCO line are designed for single slotted standards. Check the product specifications for compatibility; double slotted standards require wider bracket tabs or adapters.
What mounting hardware is included with ECONOCO slotted standards?
ECONOCO slotted standards include countersunk mounting screws. The screws are designed to sit flush with the standard's surface, allowing brackets to slide freely without obstruction. The exact screw size and quantity vary by standard length; 3G Electric can provide details per SKU. For wall or post mounting, additional anchors or fasteners may be needed depending on the substrate.
