Vestil D-350-16 Nylon (Vinyl) Dock Seal is designed to create an airtight barrier between the loading dock and the back of a trailer, helping to conserve energy and protect freight from weather exposure. This unit features 36 oz. nylon-reinforced vinyl facings, which provides durability and tear resistance suitable for frequent dock activity. The ends are chemically sealed to resist moisture intrusion, and the seal incorporates a full-height air escape tunnel to vent air as trailers contact the face, reducing pressure buildup during loading and unloading. The dock seal is a three-piece construction with a 12-inch high face, beveled sides that measure 9.5 inches at the wall and 12 inches at the face, and is designed for through-the-wall installation using the included kit. The product is intended for 5-inch maximum compression and is supplied with mounting hardware and installation instructions to facilitate a straightforward retrofit or new-installation on compatible dock setups.
In practice, the D-350-16 fits a 16 inch projection with a 16-inch face offset, and it is paired with a flush-dock configuration in conjunction with an Edge-O-Dock system when guidance on projection is needed. The design supports efficient energy conservation by minimizing gaps between the trailer and dock, which also helps protect payloads from weather elements during transit. Units are non-returnable, so precise sizing and installation follow the supplied survey and instructions to ensure proper fit and performance.
For best results, confirm compatibility with your existing dock opening, wall structure, and projection requirements before ordering. The combination of reinforced vinyl facings and a supportive three-piece assembly provides the structure needed for regular dock activity, while the built-in air tunnels help manage pressure changes when a trailer is in contact with the seal.
