RivetRite® - Boltless Steel Shelving

We call RivetRite® the “Universal Shelf Framing System” because it meets so many storage requirements using only a few simple components. Utilizing a boltless design, RivetRite is engineered to provide safe, economical storage of virtually any type of hand-loaded material.

RivetRite is easy to assemble, requiring only a rubber mallet to build most units. Structural integrity is ensured by boltless connections between beams and posts.
Units are accessible from all four sides with no braces to get in the way. Shelves are adjustable on 1-1/2” centers which allow for a custom designed unit to fit your load size. A variety of beams are available to accommodate a wide range of loads.

RivetRite shelving is comprised of 4 types of posts for the vertical members and various horizontal support members. With this boltless design, it is possible to order specific components to tailor the shelving to the items being stored.

SINGLE RIVET HIGH DENSITY UNITS

Single Rivet high density shelving uses single rivet beams on intermediate levels, and double rivet beams at the top and bottom for rigidity. For units up to 48 " wide.

  • High Density Shelf Beams provide maximum space between shelf levels 
  • Common tee posts between starter and add-on unit
  • Shelf levels adjust on 1-1/2" centers
  • Fast easy assembly
  • Optional heavy duty single rivet shelf beams available for added capacity

Penco Single Rivet beam High Density shelving is designed to provide for maximum vertical clearance between shelves.

Record Storage Units

RivetRite Record Storage Units aid in records management by providing an organized solution to high density archive storage. Two types of units are available; one that utilizes particle board decking to support the boxes, and an all steel unit with specially designed box supports. (Particle board must be ordered separately). Fire insurance premium savings may be realized by using units with steel box supports. Check with your insurance carrier. Add-on units utilize a common Tee Post between units to save time during assembly. All unit box capacities are based on a standard archive box size of approximately 12-1/2 " wide x 16-1/2" deep x 10-1/2" high.

HANGING TAILPIPE RACK: Designed specifically for the storage of automotive and light truck tailpipes. Assembles in minutes without special tools. Stored items are visible and easily accessible.

COMPONENTS

Choose from a wide selection of component sizes and capacities to fit the storage requirements.

ANGLE POST - 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" (Standard Duty): Used as upright post for standard RivetRite units.

ANGLE POST - 1-7/8" x 1-7/8" (Heavy Duty): When maximum capacity and stability are essential, the heavy duty angle post is the proper choice. Ideally suited for two level shelving, storage deck and high rise shelving applications.

TEE POST - 3" x 1-1/2" (Standard Duty): Included with standard duty add-on units to function as a common post between starter and adjoining units.

TEE POST - 3-3/4" x 1-7/8" (Heavy Duty): Used in the same way as the standard tee, when increased load capacities are required.

SINGLE RIVET SHELF BEAM (Standard Duty): Primarily used as an intermediate shelf support when maximum vertical space between levels is needed. Furnished as standard on High Density Shelving units.

SINGLE RIVET SHELF BEAM (Heavy Duty): Manufactured to provide maximum capacity with very little loss of usable vertical space between shelves.

DOUBLE RIVET ANGLE BEAM (Standard Duty): Used to establish unit stability and to provide shelf support on all four sides.

DOUBLE RIVET ANGLE BEAM (Heavy Duty): Provides stability and increased load capacity in the longer lengths.

DOUBLE RIVET CHANNEL BEAM: Designed to provide maximum left to right stability and higher capacity than standard or heavy duty beams. Cannot be used at floor level.

CENTER SUPPORT: Used with double rivet beams to provide front-to-rear support for shelf deck and provides added stability to beams.

DOUBLE RIVET ZEE STEP BEAMS: Reduced profile increases vertical clearance by 1-1/4" between shelf levels when used in place of Double Rivet Angle Beams. Protects decking edges. When used as the bottom shelf on Single Rivet Units clear space between the bottom and first shelf is increased by 1-1/4".

DECKING SUPPORT FOR ZEE STEP BEAM: Used with Zee Step Beams for front to back decking support.

RIVETRITE TWO-LEVEL STORAGE: The structural integrity of RivetRite lends itself to the construction of two-level storage facilities for applications where maximum utilization of overhead space is required. Expanding in an upward direction instead of outward keeps your personnel in closer proximity to each other and stored material, for more efficient operation. Using standard components for support, economical units may be constructed with an open deck-over upper level, or additional shelving. In either case, savings are realized because:

You virtually double the amount of storage space in a given floor area You utilize existing heat and air conditioning within the building Construction is as uncomplicated as standard single level shelving:

Beams and grating supports lock into strong one-piece posts without hardware. Penco Channel-Lock Safety Grating installs easily for a rigid walking surface. The utility of a RivetRite two-level installation has unlimited possibilities:

Shelf heights are adjustable on 1-1/2" centers Shelves can be accessed from all four sides RivetRite two level shelving systems are designed to meet your specifications. Contact your representative for assistance in reviewing your two-level shelving requirements.
