V-nose pallet rack post protectors – 4 in low-profile column guards for reach-truck aisles
Column protection that fits under the lowest beam. When the first beam level sits too low for a 12 in guard, these 4 in V-nose post protectors still put 5/16 in steel in front of the upright. The V faces the aisle and deflects a glancing hit from a forklift or a reach truck away from the column. They fit the 3 in wide uprights used by most rack brands. Pick the Standard with one anchor, or the Pro with a longer base and two anchors for heavier traffic; the ¾ in concrete wedge anchors are included.
Also called: V-nose post protector, low-profile column guard, 4 in column protector, reach truck post protector, pallet rack post guard, V guard for pallet rack. If you have been searching under any of those names, this is the product.

Standard: one anchor

Pro: longer base, two anchors

Fits 3 in uprights

Below the lowest beam
How it works
- 4 in tall, so it fits under low first-beam levels
- 5/16 in thick steel, V-shaped to deflect impacts from the aisle, safety-yellow powder coat
- Fits 3 in wide pallet rack uprights; other widths available on request
- Standard: one ¾ in wedge anchor, included
- Pro: 14⅝ in long anchored base with two ¾ in wedge anchors, included, for heavier traffic
Standard or Pro
| Model | Height | Steel | Base length | Anchors included | Weight | Use it for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | 4 in | 5/16 in | 5½ in | 1 x ¾ in | 5.1 lb | narrow aisles, moderate traffic |
| Pro | 4 in | 5/16 in | 14⅝ in | 2 x ¾ in | 14.1 lb | heavier traffic; two anchors hold it square |
Which column guard
If the first beam level clears 12 in or more, the taller pallet rack column protectors give more coverage. Rack with enlarged seismic footplates takes the seismic column guard, and the exposed ends of rows take the end of aisle rack protectors. Browse the full rack accessories range.
Frequently asked questions
When do I use a V-nose instead of a standard column protector?
When the lowest beam sits too close to the floor for a 12 in guard, which is common in narrow-aisle and reach-truck layouts. The V-nose is 4 in tall and fits under it.
Standard or Pro?
Standard has a short base and one anchor and suits aisles with moderate traffic. Pro has a 14⅝ in base with two anchors, which holds it square under heavier traffic.
Are the anchors included?
Yes. The Standard ships with one ¾ in concrete wedge anchor and the Pro with two.
Will it fit my rack?
It fits 3 in wide uprights, which covers most teardrop and structural rack. Measure the upright width before ordering; other widths are available on request.
Does it protect the whole upright?
It protects the base of the upright, which is where a truck or a reach-truck leg hits. For full-height protection at row ends, pair it with end of aisle rack protectors.
