Coil Racks

Coil Racks for Cargo Hauling

For businesses and operators who frequently haul heavy or coiled materials, a reliable coil rack is essential for keeping loads secure and organized. At Zips.com, we offer high-quality metal coil racks designed to handle a wide range of materials, from steel coils and wire spools to other rolled cargo. Proper coil rack usage improves safety, reduces load shifting, and protects both the cargo and the transport vehicle.

Why Choose a Coil Rack?

A coil rack is more than just a storage solution—it’s a critical piece of cargo equipment for transporting heavy, rolled materials. Key benefits include:

• Securing coiled cargo to prevent movement during transport.
• Reducing the risk of damage to both cargo and flatbed trailers.
• Simplifying loading and unloading with structured storage.
• Maximizing trailer space while maintaining safety compliance.

Whether you haul steel, wire, or other rolled materials, using a durable coil rack ensures stability and efficiency on every load.

Shopping Guide: How to Select a Coil Rack

When choosing a coil rack, consider the following factors to ensure safe and efficient cargo handling:

1. Material Strength – Steel racks with ASTM-rated construction provide maximum durability for heavy-duty loads.
2. Load Capacity – Match the rack to the weight and size of the coils you transport. Overloading can compromise safety.
3. Rack Size and Fit – Ensure the rack fits your trailer and accommodates the diameter of your coiled materials.
4. Ease of Installation – Look for coil racks that attach securely to flatbed trailers or cargo decks without complicated setups.

Selecting the right coil rack improves cargo stability, reduces handling risks, and ensures compliance with industry hauling standards.
