All possible care should be used in handling the pallets to prevent damage to the Vical acrylic sheet. Fork lift trucks, where they are available, should be used to transport the pallets.

STORAGE OF  VICAL SHEETS

Pallets of Vical Acrylic sheet should be stored on edge at a 10 degree angle from the vertical. Two by three inch wood strips placed on the floor about 42 inches apart will keep package edges off the floor and make the pallets easier to lift with fork lifts or hand trucks.

The "A" frame is constructed of plywood and slotted angle iron. The supporting floor of each partition is i/2 inch thick plywood. The floor panel may be covered with galvanized sheet metal for increased wear resistance. The racks are built in the "A" shape to equalize the weight and eliminate stresses on building walls.
