Vestil VESD-350-12 Nylon (Vinyl) Dock Seal is designed to create an airtight, energy-saving seal between a loading dock and the back of a trailer. This three-piece unit features 12-inch-high facings with beveled sides (9-1/2 inches at the wall, 12 inches at the face) and nylon-reinforced vinyl facings weighing 36 oz. to provide enhanced tear resistance. The seals are bonded to a durable wolmanized wood backing and include a full-height air escape tunnel to direct air through the unit as a trailer compresses against it, helping to minimize moisture and wind intrusion. A 5-inch maximum compression tolerance guides installation and performance, and the kit includes through-the-wall installation hardware. The design environment accommodates a 12-inch projection and is intended for use in conjunction with flush-dock-to-building configurations that pair with an Edge-O-Dock setup; for proper sizing, a survey should be completed and submitted. Units are non-returnable per the manufacturer.
This dock seal is built to accommodate typical dock profiles where a secure, energy-efficient seal is required at the dock face. The construction emphasizes three foam-filled pads to cushion contact and a built-in air tunnel to manage air escape during trailer entry, reducing the potential for leaks and weather intrusion around the seal perimeter. The 12-inch projection specifies how far the unit extends into the opening to align with the trailer’s bumper and dock face. While the product page does not list all compliance standards or country of origin, the description highlights a robust, factory-bonded assembly that simplifies installation with included mounting hardware and instructions. The package size is described as Each, reflecting individual unit availability for matching dock depths and trailer openings.
