Axle racks.
Returnable steel racks that carry axles, half-shafts and driveline securely — heavy, greasy, precision parts cradled and protected, trip after trip.
Axles and half-shafts are heavy, often greasy, and carry precision splines, bearings, and sealing surfaces. They need dedicated cradles that locate each unit, contain any grease, and protect the machined ends. A returnable steel rack built to the axle carries them cleanly through the loop. (For transmissions and transaxles, see our transmission racks.)
Why returnable for these parts
Expendable packaging is a cost you pay every shipment, and loose dunnage lets parts move. A returnable steel rack built to the part protects it and amortizes over hundreds of trips — run your numbers in the ROI calculator.
- Dedicated cradles locate heavy axles so they can't roll or shift
- Protects splines, bearings and sealing surfaces
- Contains grease so it doesn't foul the load or dock
- Returnable and repairable for low cost per trip
How we protect the part
We design the pocket around your part. Steel structure carries the load; custom foam and dunnage cushion and locate it, with orientation fixed for fast, damage-free handling.
- Cradles sized to your axle or half-shaft
- Protection for machined ends and splines
- Containment for greased parts
- Secure seating through rough lanes
Built to your part, under one roof
Every rack is engineered and built in-house — laser, forming, welding, powder coat — to your print and your loop, and we repair and refurbish fleets to keep cost per trip low.

FAQ
Axle Racks — answered.
Do you build racks for axles and half-shafts?
Yes. We design cradles and dunnage to your specific part — solid axles, half-shafts, or driveline assemblies.
How are heavy axles kept from rolling?
Dedicated cradles seat each axle and retention holds it in place, so heavy round parts can't roll or shift.
How do you handle greasy parts?
We can design containment into the rack so grease doesn't foul the load or your dock.
Are machined ends and splines protected?
Yes — dunnage at the contact points protects the machined ends, splines, and sealing surfaces.
Can you match our existing axle racks?
Yes. We build to print, can improve a design, and repair and refurbish fleets.
