Rubber HGV Wheel Stop
Verified by manufacturer 16 hours ago
Heavy-duty rubber wheel stops for HGV, commercial and domestic vehicles. Easy to install, corrosion resistant and highly visible, helping control vehicle positioning in car parks and loading bays.
Application
Rubber HGV Wheel Stops are designed to control vehicle parking positions within commercial, industrial and logistics environments where heavy goods vehicles and other commercial vehicles operate.
Installed at the head of parking bays, loading bays or vehicle staging areas, wheel stops provide a clear physical stopping point that helps prevent vehicles from overrunning designated parking positions and colliding with surrounding infrastructure such as walls, perimeter fencing or other parked vehicles.
Commercial Vehicle Parking Areas
The wheel stops are suitable for use with a wide range of commercial vehicles operating within industrial parking environments, including:
- Articulated lorries
- Double decker buses
- Combination vehicles
- HGVs and rigid trucks
- Delivery vans and light commercial vehicles
- Passenger vehicles and fleet cars
Their robust rubber construction provides an effective stopping guide while helping reduce the risk of damage to vehicles compared with rigid metal wheel stops.
Loading Bays and Distribution Facilities
Within warehouse yards and logistics centres, wheel stops are commonly installed to help control vehicle positioning at loading docks and service areas. Typical applications include:
- Loading bay parking control
- Trailer staging areas
- Warehouse yard parking bays
- Fleet vehicle parking areas
- Distribution centre vehicle zones
By ensuring vehicles stop in consistent positions, wheel stops help maintain safe clearances between vehicles, buildings and operational infrastructure.
Industrial and Commercial Car Parks
Rubber HGV Wheel Stops are also widely used in commercial and industrial car parks where vehicle positioning must be controlled to prevent contact with structures or adjacent vehicles.
Typical installations include:
- Back-to-back parking bays
- Parking adjacent to perimeter fencing
- Parking against building walls
- Vehicle parking within service yards
- Fleet car parks and staff parking areas
The best parking control is achieved when facilities adopt a reverse parking policy, allowing drivers to position vehicles accurately against the wheel stop.
Installation and Visibility
The wheel stops are supplied with fixings suitable for concrete and tarmac substrates, allowing installation across a wide range of industrial parking surfaces.
A moulded-in high visibility strip improves visibility for both pedestrians and drivers, helping to ensure the wheel stop remains clearly visible during both day and night operations.
Manufactured from polyurethane bonded recycled truck tyre rubber, the wheel stops eliminate the corrosion and repainting requirements commonly associated with traditional steel wheel stop systems, providing a durable and low-maintenance solution for long-term parking control.
Description
The Rubber HGV Wheel Stop is a heavy-duty vehicle parking control device designed to manage vehicle stopping positions within commercial, industrial and logistics environments.
Manufactured in the UK from polyurethane bonded recycled truck tyre rubber, the wheel stop provides a durable and sustainable solution for controlling the parking position of heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) and other commercial vehicles. The robust rubber construction provides high resistance to impact while protecting vehicles and infrastructure from damage caused by incorrect parking.
The wheel stop is designed to clearly define vehicle stopping limits, helping prevent collisions with walls, perimeter fencing, loading infrastructure and other parked vehicles. It is commonly installed in HGV yards, distribution centres, commercial car parks and industrial vehicle areas where controlled vehicle positioning is required.
A moulded-in high visibility reflective strip improves visibility for drivers and pedestrians, particularly in low-light or night-time operating conditions.
Material and Construction
- Manufactured from polyurethane bonded recycled truck tyre rubber
- Produced using crumbed recycled rubber materials
- Durable heavy-duty construction for commercial vehicle use
- Resistant to weathering and environmental exposure
- Sustainable product manufactured from 95% recycled truck tyres
The rubber construction provides natural shock absorption, helping to reduce potential damage to vehicles while maintaining reliable vehicle stopping control.
Dimensions and Configuration
The Rubber HGV Wheel Stop is designed to accommodate larger commercial vehicles operating within industrial parking environments.
Standard dimensions:
- Length: 1000 mm
- Width: 300 mm
- Height: 150 mm
These dimensions provide effective stopping control for HGVs, trailers and other large commercial vehicles.
Visibility and Identification
The wheel stop incorporates a 50 mm moulded-in reflective yellow strip, improving visibility for both drivers and pedestrians.
Visibility features include:
- High contrast black rubber body
- Moulded-in yellow reflective visibility strip
- Improved driver awareness during reversing manoeuvres
- Increased pedestrian visibility in parking environments
The reflective strip assists drivers when reversing vehicles into parking positions or loading areas.
Installation
The Rubber HGV Wheel Stop is designed for simple installation onto concrete or tarmac surfaces.
Installation features include:
- Suitable for concrete or tarmac installation
- Supplied with 5 x M14 x 135 concrete screws
- Secure fixing to prevent movement during vehicle contact
- Suitable for new construction or retrofit installations
The straightforward fixing system allows wheel stops to be installed quickly within operational parking areas.
Functional Benefits
- Controls vehicle parking positions in commercial environments
- Helps prevent collisions with walls, fencing and infrastructure
- Suitable for HGV yards and industrial vehicle areas
- Durable recycled rubber construction
- High visibility reflective strip improves safety awareness
- Manufactured from sustainable recycled materials
- Quick and simple installation
- Suitable for indoor and outdoor use
Typical Applications
Rubber HGV Wheel Stops are commonly specified for:
- HGV yards and logistics depots
- Distribution centre vehicle areas
- Commercial and industrial car parks
- Loading bay parking areas
- Warehouse vehicle zones
- Service yard parking areas
- Trailer parking locations
The wheel stops help ensure consistent parking positioning, particularly where vehicles reverse into fixed parking areas.
Operational Use
The wheel stop incorporates a design feature allowing a trailer to be pulled back over the stop in the unlikely event that a vehicle overrides the parking position.
This design helps prevent vehicle damage while still providing effective parking control within industrial environments.
The Rubber HGV Wheel Stop provides a durable, sustainable and highly visible vehicle parking control solution for commercial and industrial vehicle environments.
