Abstract: A pallet having a top deck (1) and a frame (2) including one or more bottom slats (3) which extend, at a distance below the top deck (1), in which the bottom slat (3) is connected to the top deck (1) via an assembly of a wire-shaped connecting element (4) and a holder (5), (50) which are releasably connected to each other, and in which the connection between the connecting element (4) and the holder (5), (50) is designed to automatically come apart on account of a pulling force in order to prevent damage. The width of the wire-shaped connecting elements (4) is limited, as a result of which the pallet can be designed to have relatively short sides provided with lifting openings (6).
