Abstract
The new adaptable bracket enables a pallet rack stopper assembly for facilitating the positioning of a pallet onto or under a pallet rack to prevent damage to a facility caused by the pallet, itself, or by material handling equipment during the pallet positioning process, as well as to prevent general displacement of the pallet while preserving necessary space between the pallet and the facility wall, piping, doors, electrical conduit, or other items adjacent to the pallet rack. The new bracket assembly is a compact, highly adaptable, and inexpensively elegant solution to these common problems arising in storage facilities using pallet rack storage systems.
