This is a pallet:



You have slats on top that the product sits on. You have slats on the bottom that sit on the floor.

Bolt the HL57s to the wall. The bottom slat is going to rest on the HL57. If you don't have anything to support the skid, it'll fall off, right? That's where the A23 comes in: get some bolts and nuts and bolt the A23 to the bottom of the top slat so that, when you put the skid on the HL57, the A23 will touch it. Then run a Tapcon screw (with a washer under it, 'kay?) through both the A23 and the HL57. This will tie the top slat to the wall.

This should hold it, if the weight you put on it isn't too major.

Simpson HL57 Heavy Angles and A23 Angles are your friends jmowreader May 2014 #1
