Product Details
The Bluff® steel dock board with steel curbs measures 72 x 36 inches and has a 10,000 lb. capacity, designed to speed up loading operations while enhancing safety and reducing labor costs. It features an anti-skid diamond tread surface and high-visibility beveled steel curbs for maximum safety, constructed from heavy-duty all-welded steel suitable for frequent motorized traffic, providing maximum impact resistance, strength, and safety. The kit includes lifting chains and a full-length handgrip curb for ease and safety in handling. A safety stop on the underside fits snugly between the truck and dock to prevent board movement under load. The board is supplied with an 11° operating angle unless a different angle is specified, and it has an 11-inch entry lip with a rounded nose to protect tires. It meets OSHA requirements 1910.30(a) and can be reversed if the truck is lower than dock level. The capacity rating is based on the combined weight of the maximum pallet load and lift truck for a single shift with equipment speeds up to 3 mph. For multi-shift operations, 3-wheeled forklifts, or trucks using paper roll clamps, an additional 5,000 lbs. should be added to the capacity. The board width should be 12 inches greater than the lift truck or load, with a most popular overall width of 60 inches and a usable width 4 inches less than the overall width. Stackers, 3-wheeled forklifts, and other narrow aisle loaders should not be used with this dock board, and refrigerated trucks require special dock boards. Warranty terms are included as per manufacturer guidelines.
