The Vestil 1012-6 Laminated Rubber Dock Bumper is a durable, economical protection solution designed to shield loading docks and trailers from impact. Constructed from fabric-reinforced rubber sourced from recycled truck tires, the bumper is laminated between painted structural angles and secured with 3/4" steel tie rods to form a rigid, stable assembly. A 12" long center support bracket is included with the 96" wide units to add strength and maintain alignment during use.
Installation is straightforward, with options to bolt or weld the bumper to the dock. The bumper width is measured from bolt hole center to bolt hole center (with the noted exception for certain widths), and each unit features 13/16" or 7/8" diameter bolt holes depending on the type. The rubber height and width for this model are 10 inches high by 8-1/4 inches wide, and the package size is per unit, making it simple to estimate quantities for standard dock bays.
Common applications include protecting dock edges, ledges, and vehicle bumpers at industrial loading areas where frequent trailer contact occurs. When planning installation, consider the 96"-wide bumper's mounting footprint and the center brace, which contribute to load distribution and durability over time. This model is suitable for retrofit or new dock installations where laminated rubber bumpers are preferred for cost-effective protection paired with robust steel hardware.
