Black Rubber Aircraft Wheel Chock with Blue Rope - 170 x 155 x 250 mm, 6.5 kg

A short, easy-to-handle chock for smaller aircraft wheels. At 250mm long and about 6.5kg, this is the shortest and lightest chock in our blue-rope range, and it is simple for one person to carry out to the aircraft. It is a solid triangular length of SBR rubber with a blue rope loop running through the centre, so you can carry it to the wheel and pull it clear by hand. Your airline or operator's guidelines set the chock size for each aircraft type, so check those before you order. The price is for one chock.

Why this chock works

A shape with no wrong way up. The triangular section has three matching faces, so whichever way it lands, one face sits on the ground and a sloped face meets the tyre.

Ribbed on every face. Rounded ribs run the full length of all three faces, giving the rubber edges against the tyre and the apron.

A rope you can pull from a safe distance. The blue rope loop passes through the centre of the chock, which means you carry it by the loop and draw it out from the wheel by hand when the aircraft is ready to move, without reaching in beside the tyre.

Solid rubber throughout. It is one solid SBR extrusion, with no steel to mark a tyre or apron.

No load rating or test standard is published for this line. If your specification needs either, call us before you order.

Where it is used

Use it on flying club aprons, at general aviation airfields, in maintenance hangars and on smaller aircraft stands. Its short length suits a single wheel with little room either side.

Specifications

Sizes are approximate, as moulded rubber varies slightly.

Options

We can supply other rope colours, a chain instead of the rope, or a cast ring or handle at the end, all at extra cost. Call us with what you need and we will price it.

How to use it

1. Follow your airline or operator's chocking procedure, and check this size is approved for the aircraft type.
2. Set one chock tight against each side of the tyre, square across its path.
3. Keep the rope clear of the wheel, laid out to the side.
4. When you are told it is safe, pull the chocks clear by the rope.

Care

Check the chock and rope before use, and replace the rope if it is frayed. SBR rubber does not resist oil or fuel well, so wipe off fuel and hydraulic fluid promptly.
