Reinforcing applications –<br />
Diagonal bracing<br />
168<br />
Reinforcement becomes a necessity in applications<br />
subject to significant levels of impact and loading.<br />
LeanTek ® offers a range of products specially<br />
designed to perform under severe loading<br />
conditions, including 2 mm tubes, Metal-Base ®<br />
bases and roller tracks on reinforced profiles.<br />
There are 2 main ways of reinforcing an<br />
application:<br />
• In terms of the structure: by increasing the<br />
number of diagonal braces (components F-F,<br />
F-G, F-K, F-L, F-L30 and F-L60)<br />
• In terms of the roller tracks: by increasing the<br />
number of tracks or using reinforced tracks<br />
(RT-400 and LW-400).<br />

Using the F-T and F-G joints<br />
Special shapes<br />
Using F-G connector joints in conjunction with F-T connectors<br />
allows tubes to be connected end-to-end to create any angle.<br />
This makes it possible to create work surfaces in special shapes<br />
and corner racks.<br />
Tube doubling<br />
Where load strength is required, the<br />
F-I component allows tube doubling<br />
to take the strain.<br />
