Backing Plates
Backing Plates Freight
About this Product
Backing plates should be shipped in dry, well-ventilated conditions to prevent material degradation. Proper packaging with cardboard or foam padding is essential to prevent scratches and dings during transit. Stacking on sturdy pallets with 48" height is recommended, ensuring adequate clearance for forklifts. Secure labeling and clear identification are crucial for accurate order fulfillment. The robust nature of backing plates requires attention to storage conditions and handling procedures to maintain product integrity during transportation.
