About ECONOCO

ECONOCO is a manufacturer of display and storage hardware, with a product line centered on slotted standards, brackets, hangrails, and glass shelving components. The brand's catalog is built around modular systems that allow for adjustable shelving and display configurations in retail, industrial, and commercial environments. ECONOCO products are commonly specified by plant engineers, maintenance managers, and procurement specialists who require durable, standardized components for shelving and storage infrastructure.

The core of ECONOCO's offering includes slotted standards, which are vertical metal channels with evenly spaced slots that accept brackets and other attachments. These standards are typically available in single and double slot configurations, with slot spacing and dimensions standardized to ensure compatibility across the system. Brackets are designed to engage these slots, providing support for shelves, hangrails, and tubing. The brackets are often constructed from steel and are available in finishes such as chrome, satin-chrome, and matte black, which offer varying degrees of corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal. Many brackets include locking screws to secure the attachment and prevent accidental dislodgement.

ECONOCO also supplies tubing brackets, which are used to support round or rectangular tubing. These brackets are available for both single and double slotted standards and are often used in applications where tubing serves as a hangrail for garments or as a structural element for displays. The tubing brackets are designed with specific dimensions, such as 1/8 inch thickness and 3-inch or 12-inch lengths, to accommodate different load requirements and tubing sizes. The slot length of 1/2 inch and slot spacing of 1 inch are consistent across many ECONOCO brackets, ensuring interchangeability with ECONOCO standards and potentially with other standardized slotted systems.

In addition to brackets, ECONOCO's product range includes glass shelving hardware, such as shelf supports and brackets designed specifically for glass shelves. These components are engineered to hold glass panels securely while maintaining a clean, minimal appearance. The hardware is often used in retail displays where visibility and aesthetics are important, as well as in commercial settings where glass shelving is preferred for its cleanliness and light transmission.

ECONOCO products are typically used in applications such as retail store fixtures, warehouse shelving, industrial storage racks, and commercial display systems. The components are designed for ease of installation and adjustability, allowing users to reconfigure shelving layouts without specialized tools. The steel construction and finishes are selected to withstand regular use in demanding environments, though specific load ratings and environmental tolerances should be verified with the manufacturer's specifications.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about ECONOCO from 3G Electric.

What slot spacing do ECONOCO slotted standards and brackets use?

ECONOCO slotted standards and compatible brackets typically feature a 1-inch slot spacing and a 1/2-inch slot length. This standardized spacing allows brackets to be adjusted vertically in 1-inch increments, providing flexibility in shelf positioning. The 1/2-inch slot length is designed to accommodate the bracket's engagement tab, ensuring a secure fit. When specifying ECONOCO components, verify that the bracket and standard share the same slot spacing and length to ensure compatibility. Many ECONOCO brackets, such as the rectangular and round tubing brackets, are designed for this standard, making them interchangeable within the ECONOCO system.

What is the difference between single and double slotted standards in ECONOCO shelving?

Single slotted standards have one column of slots, while double slotted standards have two parallel columns of slots. ECONOCO offers brackets for both types. Single slotted standards are often used in lighter-duty applications where a single bracket per shelf end is sufficient. Double slotted standards provide additional strength and stability, as they allow two brackets to be mounted side by side or a single wider bracket to engage both columns. This can be beneficial for supporting heavier loads or wider shelves. ECONOCO tubing brackets are available in both single and double configurations, such as the Round Tubing Bracket: Double (SKU B112) and the Round Tubing Bracket: Single (MPN BS/10). Selection depends on load requirements and the desired level of support.

Are ECONOCO tubing brackets compatible with both round and rectangular tubing?

ECONOCO manufactures specific brackets for round tubing and for rectangular tubing. For example, the Round Tubing Bracket: Single (MPN BS/10) is designed to hold round tubing, while the Rectangular Tubing Bracket: Single (SKU CR3-SC) is designed for rectangular tubing. The bracket's cradle or clamp is shaped to match the tubing profile, ensuring a secure fit. Using the correct bracket type for the tubing shape is important for stability and load-bearing capacity. ECONOCO brackets are available in various sizes, such as 3-inch and 12-inch lengths, to accommodate different tubing diameters and wall thicknesses. Always match the bracket to the tubing specification for proper installation.

What finishes are available for ECONOCO tubing brackets?

ECONOCO tubing brackets are available in several finishes, including chrome, satin-chrome, and matte black. Chrome and satin-chrome finishes provide a bright, reflective appearance and offer some corrosion resistance, making them suitable for retail and commercial environments where aesthetics matter. Matte black offers a subdued, non-reflective finish that can blend into darker backgrounds or industrial settings. The finish does not typically affect the bracket's load capacity, but it may influence durability and maintenance requirements. For example, the Rectangular Tubing Bracket: Single (SKU 45KU56) has a matte black finish, while the Round Tubing Bracket: Single (MPN BS/10) has a chrome finish. Selection should consider the operating environment and visual requirements.

Do ECONOCO brackets include locking screws?

Some ECONOCO brackets include locking screws to secure the bracket to the slotted standard. For instance, the Round Tubing Bracket: Single (MPN BS/10) and the Round Tubing Bracket: Single (SKU BS/20) both include locking screws. These screws prevent the bracket from being accidentally dislodged from the slot, which is important in applications where vibration or movement could occur. Brackets without locking screws rely on the weight of the shelf or tubing to keep them engaged. When specifying brackets, check the product details for the inclusion of locking screws if security is a concern. Locking screws are typically installed after the bracket is seated in the slot.

What are the typical applications for ECONOCO glass shelving hardware?

ECONOCO glass shelving hardware is used to support glass shelves in retail displays, showrooms, and commercial interiors. The hardware includes brackets and supports designed to hold glass panels securely without obscuring the view. Common applications include retail clothing stores, where glass shelves display folded garments or accessories; department stores for cosmetics and small items; and office environments for decorative shelving. The hardware is often specified when a clean, modern look is desired, as glass and minimal metal supports create an open, uncluttered appearance. ECONOCO glass shelving hardware is compatible with their slotted standards, allowing for adjustable shelf heights. Load capacity depends on the glass thickness and the number of supports used.
