Built for demanding service environments, this post offers essential structural support where mobility and hygiene are crucial. Designed specifically for use with stem casters, it features durable epoxy-coated steel combined with integrated Microban antimicrobial protection to minimize microbial growth on contact surfaces. Since 1998, manufacturers have engineered this component to align with high-turnover shelving systems that require dependable weight support and simplified maintenance.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug and clear the area. Remove the post and inspect for grease and debris. Mix a mild detergent with warm water (use gallons or liters as needed) and scrub steel surfaces with a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean cloth to prevent corrosion. Clean vents and caster stems to stop grease buildup that can cause fires. Schedule routine cleaning to reduce bacteria, lower energy use, extend equipment life, and ensure CSA inspection readiness.#@@#Additional Info#@#Metro MQ72CUPE Metromax QPost, 71-3/16" H epoxy-coated steel post with Microban protection, supports mobile shelving and mounts to Metro systems; weight 5.28 pounds, capacity 0.09 pounds for foodservice and institutional use.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Built for demanding service environments, this post offers essential structural support where mobility and hygiene are crucial. Designed specifically for use with stem casters, it features durable epoxy-coated steel combined with integrated Microban antimicrobial protection to minimize microbial growth on contact surfaces. Since 1998, manufacturers have engineered this component to align with high-turnover shelving systems that require dependable weight support and simplified maintenance.
#@@# Post Compatibility#@#
Engineers have sized this post at 71-3/16 inches nominal height to fit precisely with stem caster configurations used in mobile shelving. Technicians will find alignment and fit straightforward for both retrofit and new installations, minimizing downtime during reconfiguration. Designers can depend on consistent dimensions to maintain system geometry across aisles.
#@@# Coating Protection#@#
The epoxy coating provides corrosion resistance suitable for frequent cleaning cycles in wet environments. Maintenance crews can use standard sanitizing agents without damaging the finish, thereby prolonging service life. Facility managers benefit from predictable appearance retention and reduced surface pitting over time.
#@@# Antimicrobial Integration#@#
Microban antimicrobial protection is embedded into the coating to inhibit microbial proliferation between cleanings. Infection control teams observe a lower risk of microbial transfer from high-touch posts in patient care, education, or food service areas. Safety officers gain an additional layer of control against contamination vectors.
#@@# Load Capacity#@#
Engineers specify a rated capacity of 0.09 pounds per indicated data point for component-level calculations within modular shelving assemblies. Project managers should incorporate this value into distributed load analyses when configuring multiple posts and shelves.
