Abstract
Abstract An industrial pallet having a plurality of parallel spaced channel members which transversely mount a number of parallel hollow spaced slats between respective upper and lower sides of the channel members. The channel members include plates at spaced intervals therein for rigidifying the channels. The slats are corrugated for increasing the structural strength of the pallet. A second embodiment provides overhanging slats including rigidifying bars therein for permitting straddle lifting of the pallet.
