Yellow Rubber Wheel Chock for Vans and LGVs with Moulded Handle - 270 x 120 x 185 mm, 10 Tonne Max Vehicle Weight

When people work around a parked van, a bright chock is one they can see. Vehicles can creep during loading, and HSE guidance says chocks should be brightly coloured so drivers and workers notice them. This wheel chock is moulded in yellow rubber, so the colour runs all the way through instead of being a black part painted yellow. It suits cars, vans and lighter lorries up to 10 tonnes, weighs 3 to 3.7kg and has a moulded handle at the back. The price is for one chock.

Why this chock works

Yellow that stays yellow. Because the rubber itself is yellow, scuffs and yard wear don't expose a black layer underneath.

Cored sides keep it light. Large triangular pockets are moulded into each side, with a diagonal web between them. That takes out weight, making this the lighter of our two 10-tonne chocks.

Toothed along the base. A row of small teeth runs along the underside, so the rubber has edges to bite with on concrete and tarmac rather than a flat face.

A vertical handle at the back. The grip is moulded in as part of the chock, so there is nothing to fray or come loose, and you can pull it clear of the tyre by hand.

The 10-tonne figure is the maximum vehicle weight for this chock, so check your vehicle's plated weight. 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 delivery bays and trade counters, on vans and box lorries being loaded by tail lift, on builders' merchant yards, and in garages and workshops when a vehicle is stood for repair. Its slim 120mm width also makes it easy to keep on the vehicle.

Specifications

Sizes are approximate, as moulded rubber varies slightly.

How to use it safely

The sloped face goes against the tyre and the handle faces away from it.

1. Apply the parking brake, stop the engine and take the keys out.
2. Push the toe under the tyre until the slope is hard against the tread.
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 sites need a safe system of work for chocks, with drivers staying put until a designated person signals that it is safe to go. A chock backs up the parking brake and does not replace it.

Care

Check each chock before use and replace it if the rubber is split or the handle is damaged. Wipe off oil and grease, as these attack SBR rubber over time, and clear packed-in grit from the side pockets and base teeth.
