Abstract
A device for centering a coil of heavy material onto a transporting skid or pallet having intersecting supports, said device comprising a body with top and base portions, the top portion having downwardly diverging sides and a lower section adapted for seating in the core of a coil loaded onto said device. The base portion has a first pair of diametrically opposed notches for receiving a first skid support while a second pair of diametrically opposed notches receives a second skid support angularly disposed from the first support. In one embodiment, the first notch pairs protrude from outwardly extending flanges and more deeply into the base portion than the second notch pair to accommodate platforms having first skid supports which extend over their second skid supports.
