Product details
SSR Institutional Series — Lab & Forensic configurations. Specified as the SSR Lab Series for hospital pathology, university anatomy and research labs, and as the SSR Forensic Series for medical examiner, coroner and forensic morgue facilities.
The SSR-TR is built for remains that have to move. It has the same full-conveyor stainless frame as our mobile racks, and adds quick-release tray locks and side rails so loaded trays stay put during transfer between rooms, vehicles and temporary storage.
Part of the MorgueGlide™ storage system: MorgueGlide™ rollers, link-together racks and paired SSR lifts.
11-gauge (0.120 in.) stainless steel is standard; other thicknesses and finishes are available. Institutional-grade construction, built in the USA. Custom widths, heights, tier counts and column counts are available. Where dimensions differ by configuration, final dimensions are confirmed at quote.
Key features
- Two quick-release locking pins per column, with side rails, stop trays shifting while the rack is moved
- Fabricated from 11-gauge (0.120 in.) stainless steel as standard; other thicknesses and finishes available
- Five black MorgueGlide™ full-width nylon conveyor roller assemblies per column
- Heavy-duty 6 in. casters, all with brakes
- For mobile morgue, vehicle, surge and mass-fatality response planning
- Pairs with a roller-top cadaver lift for one-person loading

Tier spacing and tray clearance
The standard clear opening between tiers is 16 in., measured from the top of one tier rail to the underside of the rail above. Custom spacing is available. With 1½ in. tier rails, tier pitch is 17½ in. and overall height is about 17½ in. per tier. The tray rim rides on the rollers, with the rim top 4⅜ in. above the rail top, so the floor of a 2¾ in. deep tray sits 1⅝ in. above the rail. That leaves 14⅜ in. of usable height above the tray floor (11⅝ in. above the rim). The 1¼ in. stainless drain stub sits below the tray floor and clears the tier rail by about ⅜ in. Trays transfer at the roller line, listed for each tier in the table below. All heights are nominal (standard foot setting on stationary systems, standard 6 in. casters on mobile racks) and are confirmed on the quote drawing.
Tier heights and capacity
| Tiers | Overall height | Top-tier roller line | Top-tier tray floor | Capacity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Tier | 17 in. nominal; engineered to spec, confirmed at quote | 14¾ in. | 14⅛ in. | 1 tray |
| 2 Tiers | 34½ in. nominal | 32¼ in. | 31⅝ in. | 2 trays |
| 3 Tiers | 52 in. nominal | 49¾ in. | 49⅛ in. | 3 trays |
| 4 Tiers | 69½ in. nominal | 67¼ in. | 66⅝ in. | 4 trays |
| 5 Tiers | 87 in. nominal | 84¾ in. | 84⅛ in. | 5 trays |
| 6 Tiers | 104½ in. nominal; engineered to spec, confirmed at quote | 102¼ in. | 101⅝ in. | 6 trays |
Capacity = columns × tiers. This rack is a single column (one bay), so capacity equals the tier count. Mount several racks together as a rack bank for more columns, for example a 7-column rack bank, 5 tiers = 35 trays.
Tray width options: Standard 23 in., Medium 27 in. and Bariatric 30 in. The rack's outside width follows the tray width. Heights marked "engineered to spec" are confirmed on the quote drawing.
Stainless body trays (sold separately)
Body trays are not included with the rack. Add them to the same quote in the quantity you need, and they are quoted with the rack.
| Tray | Gauge | Length | Depth |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard 23 in. | 18 ga stainless | 78 in. | 2¾ in. |
| Medium 27 in. | 16 ga stainless | 78 in. | 2¾ in. |
| Bariatric 30 in. | 14 ga stainless | 78 in. | 2¾ in. |
- A rolled rim runs around the full perimeter and rides on the black MorgueGlide™ nylon rollers, giving a rigid edge that slides from roller to roller.
- The walls taper and the corners are square and welded.
- A single drain is centered at one end. The floor is V-pressed so it pitches to the drain. The 1¼ in. stainless drain stub has a plug on a stainless bead chain.

Mortuary rack storage, arranged around your loading route
Build cadaver storage capacity around the usable height, aisle and transfer route. Side-, end- and multi-directional loading solve different access problems; tier count alone does not establish tray fit or lift access. A portable mortuary rack needs the specified caster base, while stationary configurations use their stated feet or supports.
Compare 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-tier rack layouts
Side-loading racks: compare the 2-tier, 3-tier, 4-tier 4TSL and 5-tier side-loading models.
End-loading racks: review the 2-tier end-load configuration, 3-tier, 4-tier 4TEL and 5-tier end-loading racks.
For access from more than one direction, compare 2-tier, 3-tier, 4-tier and 5-tier multi-directional racks.
Review 2-tier side-or-end loading, the USPE 2–5 tier side-load range and USPE end-load range for another layout. Cantilever racks offer support-arm storage rather than rolling tiers.
Choose stainless trays or the correct storage board
Compare the 23-inch stainless tray, 27-inch tray and 30-inch tray by overall size, gauge and rated load. Check support spacing, underside clearance, handholds and retaining arrangements against the rack. A wider tray is not automatically approved for the same tier.
For board storage, review the HD plastic body board, HDPE rack storage board and 29-inch oversized board. The rubber-edge laminated board and 78 × 24-inch laminated board provide other storage-surface choices. Select the board for the documented support arrangement, not simply its width.
Board packs and additional stainless tray choices
HD board packs: 5 boards, 6 boards, 48 boards or 74 boards. Oversized board packs are listed as 12 boards and 24 boards. Laminated boards are also available in sets of 3 and sets of 5.
Compare the stainless storage tray, stainless body tray range, low-profile tray pair and 3-pack. Additional package listings include five 23-inch trays and six stainless trays. Confirm each listing's included quantity and dimensions.
Compare the lift models before pairing equipment
Start with the H1000 manual hydraulic lift, G1 powered multi-directional lift or 1030-LPL low-profile powered lift. Compare the lowest and highest transfer surfaces with every intended tier; the low-profile name does not establish bottom-tier access.
Other platform choices include the aluminum-alloy powered lift, stainless mortuary lift trolley, USPE cadaver lift trolley, USPE cadaver transport scissor lift, covered cadaver lift and LowLoad powered lift listing. Each has its own deck, load and height requirements.
Body and casket handling equipment
Review the heavy-duty body and casket lifter, TITAN Power Body & Casket Lift XL, casket jack set and lift straps for their intended handling tasks. These are not automatic substitutes for a tray-supporting rack lift.
Frame finish, wheels and the written equipment scope
Powder-coated rack frames and their trays, rollers or boards have separate material specifications. A stainless tray does not make a steel rack frame stainless. Coating colors and cosmetic details can change as products are improved; use the selected model's stated construction and accepted order for the required finish.
For a new facility or phased replacement, list the tier count, side or end access, stationary or caster base, tray or board quantities, cooler opening and intended lift. Identify existing equipment so support surfaces and transfer heights can be checked together. Request country-of-origin documents and the applicable written warranty for the models being ordered.

Roller-equipped cadaver handling and storage
Plan the route from mortuary lift to roller storage rack and cooler as a coordinated equipment selection. Compatible rolling surfaces can let a supported tray move between components without being lifted clear of its support. That benefit depends on the selected equipment, not simply on both products having rollers.
Compare the actual rolling-surface heights, tray underside, usable width, roller or ball-transfer spacing, loading direction and retaining stops at both ends of the transfer. Positioning, brake use and the release or engagement of stops must follow each model's instructions. Keep the load supported throughout the transfer, and determine staffing from the task, load and facility procedure rather than assume one-person operation.
Choose a low-profile powered lift for the required lower transfer points, or review the G1 multi-directional lift and stainless medical lift trolley for other loading requirements. Match trays and boards individually; a board that fits one platform is not automatically approved for a rolling tray system.
Request a coordinated lift, roller-rack and tray quote with the lowest and highest transfer points, tray dimensions, loads and existing equipment drawings. This roller-transfer guidance does not describe a cantilever support-arm rack.
