ADJUSTABLE-HEIGHT DOCK BUMPERS FROM STERTIL ENSURE VERSATILITY AND QUADRUPLE WORKING LIFE
D
esigned to provide unrivalled protection for vehicles, loading bays and buildings, the proven range of PE Dock Bumpers from Stertil Dock Products has been boosted with the introduction of adjustable-height versions. Stertil PE dock bumpers are renowned for their innovative design which allows left and right bumpers to be simply interchanged and rotated to enable users to achieve four times the working life of traditional dock bumpers.
Now, following the introduction of the latest generation of adjustable-height bumpers, the range offers a host of features, advantages and benefits. For example, the latest adjustable-height PE dock bumpers are adaptable for all vehicles and trailer types and are especially suitable for cold stores and sea containers. The bumpers are self-releasing while a truck is docked and are of particular benefit when used in conjunction with ‘step frame levellers’ by allowing vehicle doors to be opened after docking, thereby maintaining the chill environment and reducing possible contamination.
Stertil PE dock bumpers combine a unique robust construction and patented materials to provide superior performance and longevity. Each bumper is housed within a solid galvanised steel frame mounted directly to the dock face using concealed fixings. This ensures that fixing bolts are completely covered, yet easily accessible, to prevent them being damaged by or causing damage to reversing lorries. During use, the greatest wear is caused by reversing lorries and most often occurs on the top corner of the inside of a bumper. It’s not unusual for traditional dock bumpers needing to be replaced because of excessive damage in just this one area. However, without the need to undo fixing bolts, left and right PE bumper pads may be rapidly swapped to present an undamaged face to reversing vehicles. These ingenious design features therefore double the life of the bumper. Furthermore, the PE bumper pads may also be simply rotated, top to bottom, to double their working lives once again. In this way, the effective working life of the bumper is quadrupled whilst even
greater life expectancy can be achieved as a result of the polyethylene pad face being generally more resilient than conventional rubber.
