Cantilever Retrofit Kit for Existing Cantilever Racks | Carack
Carack
Carack cantilever retrofit kit converts an existing cantilever rack into a cable drum rack with a 500 mm arm extension, a Ø60 mm support tube, and support for reels up to Ø1000 mm.
Turn an existing cantilever rack into a cable drum rack
This retrofit kit extends the cantilever arm by 500 mm and adds a Ø60 mm cable reel support tube so your existing rack can carry reels up to Ø1000 mm.
It is built for owners who already have a cantilever rack and only need the arm function converted for cable drums. A single set weighs about 32 kg. The connection point to your current rack must be confirmed from photos or on site; we do not treat every cantilever rack as universally compatible.
- 500 mm arm extension
- Ø60 mm cable reel support tube
- Fits reels up to Ø1000 mm
- Single set weight about 32 kg
- Retrofit only, not a new rack purchase
Send your rack photos for a retrofit check
If your reel is larger than Ø1000 mm, the standard Carack main + auxiliary frame route is the safer option.
Choose retrofit only when the existing rack can be confirmed
Retrofit option
Use the retrofit kit on an existing cantilever bay
Keep the rack you already own, extend the arm by 500 mm, and add a Ø60 mm support tube for cable drums.
500 mm extension
Ø60 mm support tube
Reels up to Ø1000 mm
Connection check
Confirm the connection before production
The mount point, bolt pattern, and rack condition must be verified from your current rack photos or a site check.
Photo review first
Connection method confirmed
No universal fit promise
Standard rack route
Use the standard Carack main + auxiliary frame when the reel is too large
If the reel exceeds Ø1000 mm, or the existing cantilever structure cannot be safely adapted, move to the standard rack route instead of forcing a retrofit.
Oversize reels
New rack layout
Site-confirmed decision
Keep the existing frame, change only the function
Keep the rack you already own
This is a low-cost retrofit kit for customers who do not want to buy a full new rack system.
Extend the working arm by 500 mm
The added extension creates the overhang needed to carry cable reels while keeping the retrofit compact.
Support reels with a Ø60 mm tube
The support tube is sized for reel handling, rotation support, and stable placement during storage or dispensing.
Know the limits before you order
Use this retrofit only when the existing rack can be confirmed and the reel diameter stays within Ø1000 mm.
Photo first, dimensions second, packaging last
Send your current cantilever rack photos
Front view, side view, and the mounting area are enough for an initial retrofit check.
Confirm the connection method
The red-marked connection area in the quote must be checked before we treat the kit as a fit.
Confirm reel size and quantity
The kit is designed for reels up to Ø1000 mm and is supplied as a retrofit part set, not a full rack.
Choose the packaging plan
20 sets are packed in one wooden crate, about 1900 × 800 × 1100 mm and roughly 720 kg total. 100 sets are packed in five identical wooden crates.
The four questions buyers ask first
Can my cantilever rack be modified?
Yes, if your current rack structure and mounting point pass the photo check or an on-site confirmation. We do not promise universal compatibility for every cantilever rack.
How much does the arm extend?
The retrofit kit extends the cantilever arm by 500 mm.
What support tube size is used?
The reel support tube is Ø60 mm.
What reel diameter is suitable?
The retrofit kit is intended for cable reels up to Ø1000 mm. If the reel is larger, the standard Carack main + auxiliary frame route is the safer choice.
How are 20 sets and 100 sets packed?
20 sets are packed in one wooden crate, about 1900 × 800 × 1100 mm and roughly 720 kg total. 100 sets are packed in five identical wooden crates.
