Product Details
The Bluff® Steel Red Pin Heavy Duty Dock Board features dual positioning pins on each side for added flexibility and safety, making it ideal for difficult angled parking situations where trailers cannot align directly with the dock (park-out). It is designed to be flexible enough to accommodate refrigerated trailers and overseas containers. The board includes full-length side pockets and four 1" diameter high-strength locking pins spaced on 2" centers for increased adjustability and safety. It can be used by trucks below dock level without needing to be reversed. Fold-down lifting loops measuring 11"W by 4"H on 27" centers enable easy forklift transport and positioning. Contoured curbs prevent runoffs and forklift tire damage. Constructed entirely of welded steel for durability in high-traffic, multiple-shift docks, the dock board includes one 7° bend 17" from the dock end and one 9° bend 8" from the truck end and complies with OSHA Spec. 1910.30(a) and ANSI Spec. MH30.2. The capacity rating is based on the combined weight of the maximum pallet load and lift truck, with equipment speeds limited to 3 mph maximum; stackers and narrow aisle loaders are not suitable for use on this dock board. The board’s width should be 12" greater than the lift truck or load, with a usable width 6" less than the overall width. The height difference above the dock (ht") is noted, with a 14% grade for pallet trucks and electric forklifts and a 19% grade for gas-powered forklifts. The application height accommodates up to 7" above dock or 3" below dock with propane or gas forklifts, and up to 5" above dock or 3" below dock with electric forklifts or pallet jacks.
