This heavier duty HGV Wheel Stop is a premium and harder wearing alternative to the budget models.

HGV Wheel Stops provide essential protection to buildings, walls, perimeter fencing and shrubbery around warehouse and industrial facilities.

The TRAFFIC-LINE Heavy Duty Wheel Stop is a crucial component for managing the parking of heavy goods vehicles, trucks, coaches, and similar vehicles. These stops provide essential protection against potential damage to buildings and other vehicles. Constructed from recycled rubber, they are robust and designed for long-lasting performance.

Installation is straightforward, requiring five bolts (included) for secure placement. The design features drainage holes and a cable channel accommodating up to 25mm in diameter. A prominent yellow band along the top edge enhances visibility.

These wheel stops are particularly suitable for use in warehouses, distribution centers, ferry terminals, and coach parking areas. All necessary fixtures for securing them to concrete or tarmac surfaces are included. Additionally, they can be adhered using glue; please inquire for further details.

Traditional specifications for heights of Parking Bay WheelStops for HGV Artic Trailers is typically 150mm high.
We have seen across the UK a lowering of trailer mudguards, bodywork skirtings and suspension gear heights above road/service yard slab level. This has promoted the higher risk of the trailer equipment clashing with vehicle WheelStops.
We also see Shunter practices (tipping trailer up to clear lowered landing legs causing the same clash issues. This will typically manifest in the following operation issues and damage to vehicle trailer equipment;

  • Mudflap ‘Pinch’ - some vehicles will trap mudguard between tyre and WheelStop often resulting in ripping off or damaging mudguards / fixing to vehicles - this is a costly repair and takes vehicles out of commission with high operational cost and service impact
  • Suspension Gear - typically gets lower as the vehicle is laden and or the air is released from system - typically with 2 WheelStops the suspension gear should not reach the WheelStops but if parking is skewed / acutely angled clash can happen with damage to wheelstops and likely replacement costs incurred
  • Streamlined vehicle skirtings can also chew the top of WheelStops and or damage the bodywork of the vehicle trailer with damage to WheelStops and likely replacement costs incurred and costs of bodywork repairs
  • Shunters often tip trailers up to increase the risk of all the above situations and will be more aggressive should you opt for a steel WheelStop solution!

Consideration must be given to the reversing speeds of articulated trailers. Feedback from our customers indicates that there have been no issues with ride-over when transitioning to the lower WheelStop specification over a three-year period. Regarding the 'Security of fix' to the substrates, the entire range of recycled rubber WheelStops is exceptionally durable. The design incorporates a cushioning effect between the rubber tire and the rubber WheelStop, which alleviates stress on the fixings, unlike steel WheelStops. In terms of their ability to endure the substantial weight associated with trailer parking activities common in warehouse and logistics environments, testing conducted over the past four years has shown that these WheelStops can accommodate trailers and tractor units weighing up to 44 tonnes, with frequent daily movements, without any reported failures of the WheelStops or their fixings. This assessment excludes issues related to vehicle equipment colliding with WheelStops, which are specific incidents that have necessitated re-education of the HGV client base regarding the appropriate 'NEXT GENERATION' WheelStop height specifications outlined in this document. The only instances of WheelStop failures in the last three years have occurred exclusively in forklift loading environments, where there is a significant risk of forklifts dislodging the WheelStops from their fixings. If management practices are effective in these areas and forklift operators are diligent in avoiding collisions, the product can be safely utilized for this application. However, in high-risk situations, we can offer a suitable alternative solution specifically for these environments.
