The Vestil V-1124-4.5 Rubber Laminated Dock Bumper is a durable protection solution designed for loading docks and trailers. It uses a laminated construction with fabric reinforced rubber sourced from recycled truck tires, a practical choice for economical protection that still resists impact and wear. The bumper assembly is sandwiched between painted structural angles and held together with 3/4-inch steel tie rods, creating a robust unit suitable for mounting to dock edges. A 12-inch long center support bracket is included with the 96-inch wide bumper configuration to enhance rigidity and load transfer at the dock interface. Installation is straightforward, with bolting or welding options available to secure the bumper to the dock face. Width measurements are defined as bolt hole center to bolt hole center, with minor dimensional considerations noted for certain widths and bolt hole diameters across different Type designs.
This bumper is identified by its 24-inch height and 7-1/4-inch width (rubber face dimensions), with a 4-1/2-inch height for the laminated rubber profile, yielding a compact yet substantial protective zone where a dock edge or trailer bounces back during docking. The packaging is listed as each, indicating individual units are sold individually, which allows for modular protection sizing to match varying dock configurations. When choosing this bumper, consider standard dock edge alignment, required mounting method (bolting or welding), and the need for center support relative to bumper width to ensure proper load distribution and performance at the dock interface.
