The RP-132 is the configurable pallet in the rackable range. One moulding
on the 48×40 footprint, offered in **six builds**: three or five runners,
each available plain, with three parallel profiles, or with H-type
profiles.

Reinforcement is what moves the racking figure, and it moves it a long
way. The plain three-runner build is rated **1,323 lb** on beams; three
parallel profiles take that to **3,307 lb**, a **×2.5 gain** for about
14 lb of added weight. The five-runner builds start higher still, at
**13,228 lb static** against 11,023 lb.

### Six builds
- **RP-132** 3-runner, plain. 31.97 lb, 11,023 lb static, 2,646 lb dynamic, 1,323 lb racking.
- **RP-132-3P** 3-runner, three parallel profiles. 46.30 lb, 3,307 lb dynamic, 3,307 lb racking.
- **RP-132-HP** 3-runner, H-type profiles. 44.09 lb, 3,858 lb dynamic, 2,205 lb racking.
- **RP-132-5R** 5-runner, plain. 34.17 lb, 13,228 lb static, 2,976 lb dynamic, 1,543 lb racking.
- **RP-132-5R-3P** 5-runner, three parallel profiles. 48.50 lb, 3,858 lb dynamic, 3,307 lb racking.
- **RP-132-5R-HP** 5-runner, H-type profiles. 46.30 lb, 4,409 lb dynamic, 2,205 lb racking.

The two profile types are not a better-and-worse pair. **Three parallel
profiles give the higher racking figure**; **H-type gives the higher
dynamic rating** on both runner counts. Which matters depends on
whether the pallet spends its life sitting on beams or moving under load.
