Weight Capacity Ratings
Shelves are manufactured in many different weight limits from 300 to 1,200 pounds. It is important to note that most shelving is rated per shelf level for evenly distributed loads. The definition of a capacity rating may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and should be confirmed before shelving is used at or near its listed capacity.
