How strong is the Freedom Rail System?
Freedom Rail is designed for a lifetime of rugged use. All components are made of from heavy-duty steel which is coated with a non-stick epoxy coating. When uprights are spaced 36 inches apart, the Profile shelf supports 50 pounds per lineal foot, or 150 pounds on a 3 foot shelf. For extra heavy applications, place uprights 24 inches apart to support 100 pounds per lineal foot, 300 pounds on a 3 foot shelf. In addition, the superior spiraling design of the Freedom Rail anchors means that you do not need to mount the system into studs to achieve maximum system strength.
