Heavy Duty Storage Shelving Built with Steel Components for Superior Strength & Durability
Because tools and dies are vital components of your manufacturing process, we think it makes a lot of sense to carefully consider how they’re stored. Suitable storage of heavy or large forming dies, fixtures, jigs and molds requires more than standard pallet racks or spare floor space. Ross can design and manufacture an efficient, robust racking system to meet your unique needs. And like all of our racking solutions, Dexco® Tool and Die Rack Storage Racks are built with structural steel components for superior quality, strength and durability.
Tooling, dies and other manufacturing equipment can be tricky to store because of their size, weight and inability to be stacked. As a result, these indispensable tools are often stored on the manufacturing floor, where they take up space, are susceptible to damage and can endanger workers. Dexco Tool and Die Racks provide vertical storage capacity on high-strength shelves designed to accommodate the unique characteristics of manufacturing equipment. This type of storage system offers many advantages including:
Ross engineers racking systems to meet virtually any weight requirement. Typical systems support loads ranging from 2,000 pounds per tier up to 80,000 pounds per tier and higher.
Dexco industrial tool and die racks can hold items on removable deck plates, fork entry bars or open beams for easy location and access. By making organization more efficient, tool and die racks also streamline the setup process.
Tool and die racks increase floor space for manufacturing. Die storage racking systems free up walking space in facilities by keeping equipment off of the floor. Since these racking systems effectively use vertical space, you can clear more horizontal space in your facility.
Structural steel I-beams resist damage and keep your tooling secure as forklifts move through your die storage area. Each rack also has an optimized design for forklift access to reduce the risk of damage during loading and unloading.
Engineered racks enable safe tool storage. Manufacturers that store tool and die equipment on the floor put their staff at risk of strain and accidents. A racking system can lower this risk when implemented as part of a comprehensive safety plan.
We will enable you to change or add to your racking system during or after the initial concept design. Our custom design options and modular systems give you optimal control over the layout of your industrial die rack shelving.
Choose from standard designs or custom engineering. Standard designs offer the best value and shortest lead times, and custom orders provide tailored features with longer lead times.
While our tool and die storage racks are designed to safely store stamping tools, they also make retrieving and reloading die storage racks a seamless process. Aisles are designed with ample space for material handling equipment to store, control, and protect stamping materials.
Any business that uses or makes dies and tooling can benefit from a racking system. Customers that use our tool and die storage racks include:

Dexco Rack Systems are engineered using American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) standards, which were developed to guide the design of large steel structures such as bridges and buildings. The stringent nature of these standards, coupled with Ross Technology’s conservative approach to structural rack design, mean you can be confident that your people and products are safe and secure.
All vertical and horizontal members are manufactured using wide flange beams with a 50 KSI minimum yield, offering greater strength and durability compared to roll-formed steel. As a result, these racks better resist damage from material handling equipment and provide larger load capacity within a given space.
For the shortest lead time and most economical price, consider our standard industrial die rack shelving with the following features:
Our fabricators apply a powder coating in-house as the standard finish. Powder coating offers basic protection from rust and wear and provides a uniform look.
As your commercial die storage rack manufacturer, we provide custom options for your racking system, such as:
For added corrosion protection in harsh environments, you can request a hot-dip galvanized coating for your industrial tool and die racks. This treatment offers a high level of corrosion resistance and can be coupled with a durable powder paint top coat.
