The NP-133 is the **closed-deck** member of the same nestable tool as the
NP-132: a 48×40 footprint, nine legs, and three runners that snap on and
off. Where that pallet has a ventilated lattice, this one has a **solid
deck** broken only by the nine nesting cups.

### What the solid deck buys, and what it costs
Everything under the deck is the same part. Exactly three specifications
change, and this pallet is on the losing side of two of them:

- **Deck**: solid, against the ventilated lattice on the NP-132
- **Net weight**: **22.49 lb**, against **20.28 lb**
- **Static load**: **4,409 lb**, against **5,512 lb**

Dynamic load, racking load, height, runners, safety rims, fork entry and
loading quantities are **identical**.

Buy the closed deck when the load is small, loose or would fall through a
lattice, when the deck has to be **wiped down** rather than washed out,
or when a bagged or shrink-wrapped load needs continuous support. Buy the
open deck when you want the drainage, the lighter pallet and the higher
static rating.

On the static figure we would rather be plain than tidy: **the closed deck
is rated lower than the open one**, by 1,100 lb, despite carrying more
material. Both numbers are stated twice, on each product's specification
table and on its datasheet, so neither is a slip. We publish them as
stated and are confirming the reason.

### Ratings
- **Static load 4,409 lb (2,000 kg)**
- **Dynamic load 3,307 lb (1,500 kg)**
- **Racking load 882 lb (400 kg)**

Not a beam-racking pallet: 882 lb is a limit, not a working figure. All
three assume an **evenly distributed load** and fall with a concentrated
or point load.

### Freight, with the condition stated
We publish **1,470 per jumbo trailer and 1,260 per 40 ft high-cube**,
and both carry a condition: those counts are for the pallet **with
the runners not fitted**. Decks travel nested, runners travel loose, and
someone clips them on at the far end.

If empties come back to you that is worth a great deal. If they do not, a
detachable runner earns you nothing over a fixed one.

### Construction
A **one-shot moulded deck** in high-density polyethylene and polypropylene,
single-faced. Entry is **four-way**. **Safety rims, 5 mm**, to stop a load
creeping on the deck.

It is also **maintenance free** and **hygienic and
clean**. A flat deck earns the second of those more easily than a lattice
does: it **wipes clean in one pass**, where an open deck has cells to
clear out.

Overall height is **5.71 in (145 mm)**, of which the drawing gives deck 35
mm, leg 90 mm and runner 20 mm. Serviceable from **−4 °F to +104 °F**
(−20 to +40 °C). Supplied in **grey, white, navy or blue**, with other
colours to order. Dimensions carry a **±5 mm production tolerance**.

Handled by forklift or hand pallet jack, and it is **stackable**.

### Identification
Logo **embossed**, at **two positions**, and **RFID transponders can be
integrated** for pool tracking.

- **Long side, corner blocks** 75 × 25 mm
- **Short side, corner blocks** 75 × 25 mm

No insert is offered on the centre leg. Printing is sometimes listed as an
option for this pallet, but the labelling table marks only embossing, so
embossing is what we publish. **If you need a printed mark, ask us** and
we will confirm rather than assume.
