Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the AS A37009 outboard can weld assembly do?
A: The AS A37009 is a welded structural section assembly that forms the outboard (outer edge) support structure of a gravity conveyor frame. It provides lateral rigidity and prevents frame racking during product transport.
Q: Is the AS A37009 welded or bolted?
A: This is a welded assembly. The can section is permanently welded during manufacturing. It arrives as a complete subassembly ready for frame integration, requiring no in-field welding.
Q: What material is the AS A37009 made from?
A: The AS A37009 is constructed from cold-rolled steel tube and can material, selected for strength and corrosion resistance in warehouse environments. All welds are reinforced for load-bearing applications.
Q: Can the AS A37009 be repaired or re-welded if damaged?
A: Field repair is not recommended. Welded assemblies should be replaced as a unit to maintain structural integrity and warranty coverage. Contact us with your frame model if a replacement is needed.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of the AS A37009 assembly?
A: With proper maintenance and normal conveyor operation, welded can assemblies typically last 10-15 years. Lifespan depends on load volume, product type, and environmental conditions such as humidity and temperature extremes.
Q: How do I know if the AS A37009 needs replacement?
A: Replace the assembly if you observe visible cracks in the welds, frame racking or lateral flex during loaded operation, or rust perforation through the tube material. These signs indicate structural failure risk.
