Vestil V-1130-4.5 Rubber Laminated Dock Bumper provides durable impact protection for loading docks and trailer profiles. This laminated unit combines fabric reinforced rubber sourced from recycled truck tires, sandwiched between painted structural angles and secured with 3/4" steel tie rods. The design includes a 12" center support bracket for the 96" wide configuration, and mounting is straightforward by bolting or welding to the dock surface. Width measurements follow bolt-hole centers, with specific exceptions noted for Type C configurations. The rubber panel is 30" tall and 7-1/4" wide, yielding a robust bumper face that helps absorb contact force during dock interactions while maintaining a slim profile for compatible dock setups. The unit comes as a single bumper (per package size) and is designed for easy field installation, enabling quick service restoration after impact events.
Practically, laminated bumpers like this are chosen for economical protection with replaceable face components when impact occurs. The construction using fabric reinforced rubber from recycled tires supports a balance of resilience and cost, while the laminated assembly—consisting of rubber faces, structural angles, and tie rods—helps maintain alignment and rigidity under load. Installation methods are flexible, allowing either bolting or welding to the dock, depending on site preferences and structural capability. This bumper is specified with a 30" rubber height and 7-1/4" rubber width, and is typically used in dock and trailer contact zones where normal loading dock equipment interactions occur.
