Vestil Laminated Rubber Dock Bumper provides economical, durable protection for loading docks and trailers. The bumper is constructed from fabric reinforced rubber derived from recycled truck tires, laminated between painted structural angles and anchored with 3/4" steel tie rods. A 12" center support bracket accompanies the 96" wide unit, enhancing rigidity for frequent impact areas. Installation is straightforward, with the option to bolt or weld the bumper to the dock, supporting versatile mounting in industrial environments.
This model features a 12" rubber height and a nominal 92" width of impact surface, designed to absorb and distribute energy from docked trailers while minimizing damage to dock edges and trailers. Bolt holes are provided and sized to accommodate standard hardware, with variations by bumper type that affect exact width measurements and bolt hole diameters. The laminated construction, using fabric reinforced rubber, offers a balance of resilience and economical pricing suitable for high-traffic loading zones.
Practical considerations include selecting the appropriate bumper type and ensuring mounting alignment to maintain the integrity of the impact surface. The 96" width requires compatibility with dock edge configurations and supports fast installation through bolting or welding. The center bracket and the laminated assembly contribute to overall stiffness, reducing flex during repeated drops and heavy impacts. For best results, verify the exact width (measured bolt hole center to bolt hole center) and hole size per the specific Type A, B, or C configuration before installation.
