B636-11-SF Steel Faced Dock Bumpers
B636-11-SF – 36″ High x 11″ Long x 6″ Thick
The B636-11-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? Steel-faced dock bumpers like the B636-11-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 and typical setups.
Unlike most steel-faced models the B636-11-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 B636-11-SF is a high-quality Durable dock bumper and is made proudly in the USA.
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:
