⚡ At a Glance
- • Impact Absorption: Industrial-grade recycled rubber with a 400mm x 200mm x 100mm profile that soaks up collision forces
- • Best for: Warehouses and commercial loading bays that need robust, repeatable protection
- • Not ideal for: Light domestic uses or locations where heavy-duty protection is unnecessary
Rectangular dock bumper made from 100% recycled rubber, sized 400mm x 200mm x 100mm. Weighs 12kg and is optimised to absorb vehicle contact while reducing structural damage.
Effective impact protection - thanks to industrial-grade recycled rubber
Recycled rubber construction uses dense, heavy compound shaped to a 400mm x 200mm x 100mm profile that disperses kinetic energy on contact. The rectangular form spreads force over a wider area to reduce peak loads.
Absorbs vehicle impacts to protect building edges and trailer undersides, cutting the frequency of repair work. The robust composition handles repeated collisions typical of busy loading bays.
Long-lasting performance - with UV-resistant, corrosion-proof construction
Material is treated for UV resistance and formulated to resist corrosion from typical outdoor exposure in commercial settings. The finish prevents rapid degradation from sunlight and weather.
Maintains shape and protective qualities in sun-exposed docks, reducing maintenance and replacement cycles. Useful for external loading bays and sites with regular outdoor vehicle movements.
Fast, secure mounting - thanks to pre-drilled countersunk holes for M16 bolts
Factory-prepared countersunk holes accept M16 bolts for flush fixing, allowing secure mechanical attachment to dock walls or frames. Units can be mounted individually or in series to cover longer bay lengths.
Speeds installation and ensures consistent, reliable fixing with commonly used M16 hardware. Modular mounting makes it simple to scale protection along the full length of a loading bay.
✨ The 4 Key Reasons for Vigil Loading Dock Bumpers
