UNLEASH THE
POWERCHOCK®
AND CREATE SAFETY

Discover and create a safer and more efficient loading dock environment for your people.

Why is POWERCHOCK®
your most effective solution?
An innovative use of simple physics!

THE STRONGER THE VEHICLE, THE BETTER IT WORKS ! 

POWERCHOCK® uses a patented combination of a chock and a restraining plate
to immobilize the wheel, the strongest part of any vehicle.

How it works: In the event of an unanticipated departure, the tire wedges into the chock.
This patented action greatly increases its retaining capacity.

“ WHERE THERE’S A WHEEL,
THERE’S A WAY. ”

POWERCHOCK® not only holds the wheel in place, it stops it

■ The chock and restraining plate combination blocks the wheel, providing the most reliable restraining force for all trailers. Simply the safest.

■ POWERCHOCK® withstands up to 50,000 lbs of pull-away force with its high-tensile steel and multi-point contact restraining system.

The design and the choice of materials make the POWERCHOCK® a resistant and durable product.

WHY IS IT CRITICAL TO SECURE LOADING DOCK OPERATIONS?

If you manage warehouse facilities, you know where accidents happen: the vehicle/loading dock interface – where time constraints and communication breakdowns cause early truck pull-aways – with workers still moving cargo in the back.

Reducing accidents and protecting workers’ lives is your number one priority – and ours.

The loading dock is the most dangerous area of warehousing operations. Each year, many injuries and fatalities occur when lift trucks accidentally drive off the dock or fall between the dock and the trailer. The POWERCHOCK® and its communication system prevents these accidents by ensuring that a secure loading/unloading space is created when the vehicle meets the docking bay – keeping workers, facility equipment and cargo safe.
