TVB636-11SF Steel-Faced Bumper
TVB636-11SF – Thickness: 6”  Height: 36”  Length: 11”  SN#: 22-2106, 22-2107, 22-2108 – see mounting
The TVB636-11SF is a quality laminated rubber bumper but incased with an even tougher steel plate face. Importantly, steel-faced dock bumpers reduce friction while absorbing impact force by up to 70%. This means they can handle your deliveries and heavy loads.
Do you have trucks with air-ride trailers and loading dock equipment like dock levelers? Do you notice pitting or tearing in your existing rubber bumpers?  Steel-faced dock bumpers like the TVB636-11SF will not break down under everyday contact and stressors. They are designed to absorb impact while reducing and handling friction too. This makes them perfect for docks that have up and down movement from common equipment.
Unlike most steel-faced models the TVB636-11SF is a vertical dock bumper with 36″ of vertical coverage. This model uniquely spans the gap for docks, like many around the country, with varying truck height. TheTVB636-11SF is a high-quality Ideal Warehouse (IWI) dock bumper.
Mounting and Installation
Three mounting options are available: steel angles for most applications, equipped with 1/4″ steel angles on both sides, bumpers with flat plates (welded installations) or a combination of a steel angle on one side and flat plate on the other. See below:
