This Standard specifies dimensional and performance requirements of flat pallets for materials handling, the pallets being of nominal sizes 1165 mm x 1165 mm and 1100 mm x 1100 mm, and having a load capacity of 2 t during handling operations (e.g. when in slings, when on fork lifts, and during load assembly) or where used for storage in a drive-through system of pallet racking. The Standard applies to pallets as manufactured.NOTES:For long-term storage on pallets, lesser load capacities may apply, except in 'block stacking' storage situations.Although timber is the material most commonly used for pallets, this Standard has been prepared on a performance basis to allow for the use of other materials.Appendix A provides examples of typical two-way timber pallets that have been designed so as to enable their compliance with the requirements of this Standard.
