The HD-361 is the largest footprint DR Polysystems stocks, **1300 × 1100 mm**,
and the only 51×43 pallet in the range. It was built for **petrochemical and
chemical plant duty**: drums, bagged resin and lined IBCs moving between
filling lines, warehouse and container without a change of pallet.

### The base is the design decision
Nine blocks joined by a **connected six-runner grid**, three runners in each
direction rather than three bars in one. That gives a continuous bearing
surface across the underside both ways, which is what lets it **run on a
conveyor** in either orientation instead of only along its stringers.

It takes **11,023 lb static** and **2,756 lb dynamic** at a net weight of
**31.97 lb**, so it holds five tonnes standing while staying light enough
for one person to move by hand.

### It racks, but it racks lightly
The connected base is **rack-compatible**: six joined runners give the
continuous bearing surface a beam needs, which is exactly why the base is
built this way. What it does not give is capacity. Racking load is
**661 lb (300 kg)**, against 11,023 lb standing on the floor.

So use it in racking with a light load, and if a full pallet has to sit
unsupported on beams, specify from the rackable range instead, where the
same 11,023 lb static rating comes with **1,323 lb** of racking capacity.

Every load rating here assumes an **evenly distributed load**, and falls
with a concentrated or point load.

### Fork entry
The engineering drawing dimensions openings on both elevations, so forks
enter from **all four sides**, two openings a side:

- **Long side** 280 mm wide × 90 mm high
- **Short side** 250 mm wide × 90 mm high

Dimensions carry a **±5 mm production tolerance**, as moulded parts of this
size do.

### Material and service conditions
High-density polyethylene, resistant to humidity, airborne environmental
pollutants, and **chemical acids and corrosives**, which is the property
that earns it a place on a petrochemical site. Serviceable from
**−4 °F to +104 °F** (−20 to +40 °C). Supplied in **grey, white, navy or
blue**, with other colours to order, so a pallet pool can be colour-coded by
site, customer or line. Anti-slip rubber, and handled by hand pallet truck,
forklift or reach truck.

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

- **Short side, corner blocks** 150 × 120 mm
- **Centre leg** 150 × 80 mm

No insert is offered on the long-side corner blocks, and this build carries
no safety rim option.

### Freight
**374 per jumbo trailer** and **320 per 40 ft high-cube container**.
