A spacer for loading pallets comprises a tubular member having a number of pointed securing tabs (3a) adapted to penetrate into and connect the tubular member to a deck-forming member of the loading pallet, and a number of support members (3) extending at a right angle to the securing tabs and being formed, like the securing tabs, in one piece with the tubular member. The spacer is prepared from a thin-walled sheet metal portion, which has been given a polygonal tubular shape in cross section by axially extending bending zones (7) located in border areas between securing tabs (3a) and support member (3). Each tube wall portion (12) defined by two adjacent bending zones (7) and associated to a supporting member (3) extends at an angle to two other adjacent tube wall portions (12) located on opposite sides thereof.
