Vestil 1224-6 Laminated Rubber Dock Bumper provides economical, durable protection for loading docks and trailers. The bumper is built from fabric-reinforced rubber sourced from recycled truck tires, laminated between painted structural angles, and held together with 3/4" steel tie rods. A 12" center support bracket is included with the 96" wide unit, contributing to structural stiffness and load transfer at the dock edge. Installation is straightforward, with options to bolt or weld the assembly to the dock, helping accommodate varying facility requirements.
This laminated design places the rubber between two steel angles to form a rigid, impact-absorbing bumper. Key dimensional notes include a 12" rubber height and a 20-1/2" width, with width measured by the bolt hole center to bolt hole center (except Type C, where width is measured differently). Bolt holes are 13/16" on Type A & C bumpers and 7/8" on Type B bumpers, which influences fastener selection and mounting compatibility. The 6" depth (thickness) along with the laminated construction helps distribute impact forces and protects dock edges, trailers, and equipment from incidental contact.
Ideal applications include loading docks and trailer bumpers where a cost-effective, rugged protection solution is needed. Ensure mounting hardware and dock structure can accommodate the bolt hole pattern and bumper width for a secure installation. The unit is sized as a single bumper per package, with a 12" height by approximately 20-1/2" width and 6" depth, designed for 96" wide installations and compatible with installations requiring bolting or welding to the dock surface.
