Aluminum Dockboards with Welded Curbs for Trucks - 5,000 lb. Capacity & 60 in. Wide
Strong welded curbs prevent flexing and are more durable than bolt-on curbs. The aluminum curbs are smooth and tapered, extending the length of the dockboard. Smooth edges make gripping easy and reduce wear and burring.
Aluminum curbs welded to aluminum plates react as a single unit to a load, unlike steel curbs bolted to aluminum plates which react individually, causing unusual stress at the fasteners. Welded curbs stay securely in place and do not require continual tightening as bolt-on curbing does.
- Ideal for pallet truck applications that requireer boards.
- 9" lips are standard.
- Side curbs take up 5 to 5 1/2" of usable width.
- Welded legs prevent movement while loading and unloading.
- Uneven legs allow the dockboard to sit canted for easy pickup with a fork truck.
- Special non-slip diamond tread surface for all boards.
- All welded aluminum construction ensures lightweight and-term durability.
- Beveled edges allow for smooth entry and exit.
- Treadplate design ensures positive traction.
- Bend is 11° and 9" from the beveled edge.
- Legs are 12" from the beveled edge.
- Manufactured to comply with OSHA standards.
Capacities are based on the heaviest type of equipment used plus the maximum load carried, multiplied by the single axle rating of the total load. Dynamic loading, driver tendencies, speed, and frequency of dockboard use must be considered. If you are using your dockboard frequently over three shifts, we recommend the Steel (TS-series) dockboards.
