The Vestil RR-78-50 is a pit-mounted mechanical dock leveler designed to facilitate efficient truck loading and unloading at standard loading docks. With a uniform 50,000-lb capacity, this leveler provides robust support for heavy palletized loads, while the heavy-duty diamond-plate deck offers durable surface contact and reliable footing for operators and equipment. The unit is operated by a smooth pull-chain mechanism, which supports extended service life with simple maintenance requirements. The lip extends 16 inches to bridge the dock edge and the trailer bed, helping to create a stable transition between dock and trailer throughout its service range.
Construction emphasizes rugged understructure and controlled operation: the leveler features a steel channel understructure paired with a 3/8-inch-thick steel checkered plate deck to withstand repeated use in busy loading environments. Telescopic side-mounted toe guards span the full service range, guarding the opening while allowing full access across the dock face. The design is intended to operate within a 12-inch vertical range above and below the dock, enabling use with a variety of trailer heights and minimizing the need for frequent adjustments. This model includes (2) 1014-4.5 laminated bumpers to aid docking alignment and impact absorption.
Ideal for facilities requiring a high-capacity, low-maintenance solution, the RR-78-50 supports heavy freight handling at busy docks, while remaining compliant with relevant standards applicable to dock equipment such as CS 202-56, OSHA, and ANSI MH14.5. When selecting this leveler, ensure compatibility with your pit dimensions and trailer profiles, verify the service range meets your dock height needs, and plan for routine inspection of the pull-chain operation and guarding components to maintain reliable performance.
