New Products – Crank-Out Cantilever & Sheet Metal Rack
SJF is proud to announce two brand new up-and-coming products to our eStore:
Crank-Out Cantilever Racking
Crank-Out Cantilever allows for easy overhead accessibility when storing and retrieving heavy bar stock, tube, pipe and more. With just a turn of a crank, the fully loaded arms extend all the way into the aisle for maximum loading and unloading ease of use.
Reduce:
- Machine down time by placing a crank-out cantilever next to a saw, laser or other fabrication machinery
- Man hours by eliminating a forklift driver when material change over is necessary
- Aisle way space by being able to load and unload a crank-out cantilever with an overhead crane
- Manufacturing floor space by utilizing vertical space and still gain access to multiple types of stock material
- Potential injuries caused by man handling heavy stock material
Sheet Metal Storage Racking
The Sheetmaster 100 is perfect for fixture and sheet metal storage. Ideal for use with vacuum lifts, hoists, sheet lifts, magnets and forklifts.
Reduce…
- Machine down time by placing a sheetmaster next to a sheer, laser, turret punch or other fabrication machinery
- Man hours by eliminating a forklift driver when material change over is necessary
- Aisle way space by being able to load and unload a sheetmaster with an overhead crane
- Manufacturing floor space by utilizing vertical space and still gain access to multiple types of sheet material
- Potential injuries caused by man handling heavy sheet products
Heavy Duty Shelves
With a standard rack height of 7 ft., units with 4 – 8 shelves have clearances ranging from 5 15/16″ – 15″
- Shelves are of all-welded construction
- Steel decking is optional
- Shelves extend a full 100% with a 5,500 lb. load capacity, on 4 roller bearings

SJF Honored at Minnesota’s Top 100 Companies Celebration
Earlier this year, SJF Material Handling received notice that it had been named one of the “100 Best Companies to Work For” in 2018 by Minnesota Business Magazine. The awards program and dinner honoring this year’s award recipients took place on Thursday, June 28 at the JW Marriott Minneapolis Mall of America.
Qualifications for the “100 Best” Award
To be awarded this honor, the following excerpt from Minnesota Business Magazine states:
Minnesota is known for being a great place to live and work, with top-notch companies in many industries headquartered here. Each year, these companies submit nominations for the 100 Best Companies to Work For Awards by Minnesota Business magazine. This award recognizes Minnesota’s top companies and, time after time, helps the winners attract key employees who make all the difference.
The “100 Best” were determined by the resulting scores of an anonymous online questionnaire filled out by the employees of each participating company — to determine which companies in Minnesota excel in the areas of work environment, employee benefits, and overall employee happiness, making them the 100 Best Companies to Work For.
This is the 4th time SJF has been named to this prestigious list and we are very proud of the accomplishment!
