Serious consideration should always be given to fitting the appropriate type of dock buffers.
Standard dock buffers
These are robust, good quality and cost effective. They are constructed of composite reinforced rubber and available in both rectangular and L-shaped versions of varying sizes to suit your requirements.
Sliding buffer system
The increasing use of air suspension vehicles has resulted in many dock buffers being damaged. This happens when the vehicle backs onto the buffers, then as it is unloaded or loaded the suspension rises and falls resulting in the buffers being damaged at the top or bottom, and in some cases being ripped from the wall. Our sliding buffer system allows the buffers in contact with the vehicle to travel up and down with the vehicle suspension. This is an efficient and valuable solution which will ultimately prove very cost effective.
Polyethylene fronted buffers
These buffers offer a long life, high damage resistance and ensure the dock area remains safe and functional. They are also aesthetically pleasing, and designed to reduce wear on vehicle bumpers. These buffers have a high molecular weight polyethylene front to withstand daily punishment, and the low friction means increased life, with their high visibility also helping drivers align trailers more accurately.
