Description
LVB636-11-SF Steel-Faced Bumper
LVB636-11-SF – Thickness: 6”  Height: 36”  Length: 11”Â
The LVB636-11-SF 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 LVB636-11-SF 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 LVB636-11-SF 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. The LVB636-11-SF 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:
Standard – Steel Angles on Both Sides (bolted Installation)
P1- Plate on one side / angle on the other (welded and bolted installation)
P2- Plates on both sides (welded Installation)
