At MyGlassTruck, we recognize that transporting glass requires more than just strength; it demands superior safety. Our commitment to safeguarding your cargo starts with a robust design and ends with the assurance that your deliveries and workforce are protected against the unpredictable conditions of the road. Here’s a deeper look into the safety features of our glass racks that make them a cut above the rest.

Every component is cut, bent, and assembled to the highest standard at our in-house fabrication shop.

Built to Last with High-Quality Materials

Safety begins with construction. Our glass racks are built with strong, custom extruded aluminum posts and slats. This choice of material not only ensures durability but also offers significant weight savings without compromising the structural integrity of the rack. Aluminum, known for its resistance to corrosion, extends the lifespan of our racks under various environmental conditions. Each component is designed and assembled to meet the highest standards in our state-of-the-art in-house fabrication shop

Advanced Fastening Technology

We use Huck® aircraft-grade fasteners in the construction of our racks. These fasteners are superior to traditional welds, which can crack over time. These fasteners also provide exceptional clamping power, dramatically reducing the risk of loosening under vibration during transport. This means your glass remains secure, no matter how many bumps you encounter on your trip.

Huck bolts offer distinct advantages that increase the strength, integrity and consistency of the glass carriers that we manufacture

Comprehensive Padding and Support

Each rack features full-length horizontal and vertical glass protection padding. This isn’t just a buffer—this padding absorbs shocks and helps distribute pressure evenly, significantly minimizing the risk of glass breakage during transit. Additionally, our glass support ledges are equipped with thick rubber pads, enhancing stability and further protecting your glass from the stress of travel.

Adjustability for Ultimate Flexibility

The versatility of our Adjust-A-Poles, with fully adjustable cleats, is a key safety feature. This adjustability allows for the secure accommodation of various sizes and types of glass, ensuring a snug fit for each unique load. Proper cargo securement is crucial for preventing movement that could lead to damage or safety hazards during transport.

Designed for Ease of Use and Efficiency

The ease of use of our glass racks is directly tied to safety. Each design considers the end-user, aiming to make installation, loading, and unloading as straightforward as possible. This user-friendly approach reduces the likelihood of mishandling, which can be a common source of accidents and breakage.

Small details like our high visibility front stops make a big difference when it comes to safety.

Tailored to Your Needs

Recognizing that no two businesses are the same, we offer customization options to meet specific needs and challenges. This tailored approach ensures that each client receives a racking solution that not only meets but exceeds their safety and operational requirements.

Conclusion

At MyGlassTruck, our glass racks are more than just transportation equipment; they are a pivotal part of your business’s operation and safety-first mindset. Engineered with precision, constructed with the finest materials, and designed with your cargo’s security in mind, our racks are built to deliver not just glass but also peace of mind.
