Rubber wheel stops provide a highly durable means of stopping vehicles within a parking space. Wheel stops help to prevent damage to nearby assets and deter vehicles from moving beyond a designated area.
Why use rubber wheel stops?
Rubber wheel stops are used for sustainable parking management and help to prevent damage to buildings or assets. They are also hard wearing and much more cost-effective when compared to concrete wheel stops. Because they are made from rubber they are less likely to rot or crack and are easier to replace.
A popular wheel stop option among Pittman customers is the XPT Wheel Stop 1800mm Yellow. This excellent rubber wheel stop is made from recycled rubber for long-lasting protection. Unlike cheaper options the highly visible yellow markings are moulded into the stop instead of using an adhesive that is likely to come off over time.
How to install rubber wheel stops?
To install rubber wheel stops simply drill the pilot holes, put the stops in place and then tighten into position.
With the XPT Wheel Stop 1800mm White the fixings will allow for fixing into concrete or tarmac.
Rubber Wheel Stops for HGVs?
Truck wheel stops are made from extremely tough rubber that can accommodate the larger vehicle wheels. A single wheel stop will be required for each vehicle wheel. Having them in place will significantly reduce the risk of vehicle collisions in loading bays.
The MKII HGV Wheel Stop provides an excellent means for trucks to come to a stop safely within a confined space. HGV rubber wheel stops are popular in the likes of freight depots and loading bays.
