The HD-301 is the top of the 51×43 range and the **only reversible pallet**
in the catalogue. Two identical grid faces are **welded together into one
part**, so there is no top and no bottom: either face carries the load.

### What reversible is worth
A conventional pallet wears on one deck and gets scrapped with the other
still good. This one is **turned over and put back into service**, which is
the whole argument for it in a closed-loop or multi-use operation. It also
removes an orientation error from automated handling, because there is no
wrong way up.

### The strongest build in the range
- **Static load 13,228 lb (6,000 kg)**, the only 51×43 build above 5,000 kg
- **Dynamic load 3,968 lb (1,800 kg)**
- **Racking load 2,646 lb (1,200 kg)**, four times the HD-361 and double
  the HD-363
- Net weight **60.63 lb**, close to twice the HD-361

Racking is where the gap really opens. **1,200 kg on beams** is a working
rating for full pallet loads, where the lighter builds in this family are
limited to 300 kg. Every figure still assumes an **evenly distributed load**
and falls with a concentrated or point load.

### Two pieces, welded
It is moulded as two pieces welded together, which is the reason for
both the strength and the weight.

### Fork entry
Four-way, two openings a side, through the perimeter frame:

- **Long side** 257 mm wide × 86.5 mm high
- **Short side** 256 mm wide × 86.5 mm high

Dimensions carry a **±5 mm production tolerance**.

### Material and service conditions
High-density polyethylene, resistant to humidity, airborne environmental
pollutants, and chemical acids and corrosives. Serviceable from
**−4 °F to +104 °F** (−20 to +40 °C). Supplied in **grey, white, navy or
blue**, with other colours to order. It carries **anti-slip plugs**, and
it handles with a hand pallet truck, forklift or reach truck.

### Identification
Logo printed or embossed, at one position only, and **RFID transponders can
be integrated** for pool tracking.

- **Long side, corner blocks** 135 × 55 mm

No insert is offered on the short side or the centre, and this build
carries no safety rim option.

### Freight
**374 per jumbo trailer** and **320 per 40 ft high-cube container**, the
same as every other build in the family despite the extra mass, because
the envelope is unchanged.
