Black Rubber HGV Wheel Chock with Eye-Bolt, Cored - 230 x 160 x 205 mm, 44 Tonne Max Vehicle Weight

The classic wedge shape, with a tall face for HGV tyres. This chock stands about 205mm high, with a thin toe that slides under the tyre and a stepped ramp that climbs the tread. It is cored underneath to bring the weight and price down, and it still carries a 44-tonne maximum vehicle weight. A steel eye-bolt at the back lets you tie on a rope if you want one. The price is for one chock.

Why this chock works

A tall ramp for a big tyre. At about 205mm high, the ramp reaches well up the tread, and if the wheel starts to roll it bears down on the chock and presses it into the ground.

Stepped ribs across the ramp. A row of square ribs gives the tyre edges to bear against instead of a smooth face.

Eye-bolt at the back. Fit a rope so you can pull the chock clear without reaching in beside the wheel, or tie a pair together so they stay on the vehicle. The rope is not included.

Cored for lower weight and cost. The hollow section underneath makes it lighter and cheaper than the solid version of the same chock.

No test standard or slope rating is published for this line. If your specification needs a tested chock, call us before you order.

Where it is used

Use it at loading bays and distribution centres, in haulage and freight yards, on tankers and trailers parked up for loading, and in workshops when a vehicle is stood for repair.

Specifications

Sizes are approximate, as moulded rubber varies slightly.

How to use it safely

1. Apply the parking brake, stop the engine and take the keys out.
2. Push the toe under the tyre until the ramp is hard against the tread. The flat back faces away from the wheel.
3. On a slope, chock the downhill side first. Use a second chock on the other side of the tyre.
4. Before removing the chocks, make sure nearby vehicle movements have stopped and everyone is clear.
5. Take the chocks away before the vehicle moves, and never drive over one.

HSE guidance says chocks should be brightly coloured so they can be seen, and this one is black. On a busy site, choose a yellow chock or make it easier to spot in line with your risk assessment. A chock backs up the parking brake and does not replace it.

Which chock do you need?

Care

Check each chock before use and replace it if the rubber is split or the eye-bolt is loose. Wipe off oil and grease, as they can attack rubber over time.
