Abstract

Abstract A material transporting arrangement characterized by a base member presenting a core having integral or separable outwardly extending arms, where the upper surface of the core and the arms are coplaner and serve to receive material, such as rolled metal stock. The aforesaid arms include inverted T-shaped slots which are adapted to receive and retain the free ends (because of configuration) of tie straps which overlay the material. In one form, separable arms are provided, such being slidable into the form cutouts or recesses in the core to accommodate differences in rolled coil diameter size. With an integral core and arm arrangement, the unit is designed for a particular size rolled coil diameter. Coil edge protectors may be provided and, for durability, the base and the arms are made from a high density plastic resin.
