Description
A half-metre chock for wider wheel sets. At 500mm long, this chock reaches further across the wheel than the shorter sizes, which helps where your procedure calls for a longer chock on smaller twin wheels. It is a solid triangular length of SBR rubber, about 13kg, with a blue rope loop through the centre so you can carry it 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. This size is made to order, so please call us for the lead time. The price is for one chock.

Why this chock works
Length where you need it. The extra length gives you more contact across the tread and more margin when lining the chock up with the wheel.
No wrong way up. The triangular section has three matching faces, so one face always sits on the apron 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 ground.
A rope for pulling clear. The blue rope loop runs through the centre, so ground crew can draw the chock out by hand instead of reaching in beside the tyre.
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 at private aviation terminals, on business jet aprons, in maintenance hangars and at regional airports, wherever your procedure calls for a chock around this length.

How to use it
- Follow your airline or operator's chocking procedure, and check this size is approved for the aircraft type.
- Set one chock tight against each side of the tyre, square across its path.
- Keep the rope clear of the wheel, laid out to the side.
- 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.
Frequently asked questions
Is the price for one chock or a pair?
The price is for one chock with its rope. Set the quantity to 2 for one each side of a wheel.
How long will it take?
This size is made to order, so the lead time varies. Call 01744 520 110 before you order and we will confirm it.
Will it suit my aircraft?
That depends on your airline or operator's guidelines, which set the length and size of chock for each aircraft type. We can't approve a chock for an aircraft type, so please check first.
