What is a continued seat track?
Pallets have a seat track in the aluminium edge extrusions. In this seat track circular pieces are milled out which allow studs or locks to be installed into the seat track which then allow a container to be fitted on the pallet or a net to be fastened. If the millings are present over the entire length of the pallet extrusions it is called a continuous seat track. If there are only several millings over the entire length of the pallet extrusions it is called a non-continuous seat track. The configuration of the millings can be found in the NAS3610. To which part of the NAS3610 the pallet should comply can be found in the IATA manual if the IATA code is known. The customer should supply the IATA code of the ULD they require.
