Standard or Reflective Wheel Chock

Both versions have the same dimensions, material and maximum vehicle weight. The difference lies in their appearance and visibility.

How to Use a Wheel Chock Safely

Park the vehicle on a firm and stable surface. Apply the parking brake and switch off the engine before positioning the wheel chock.

Place the chock firmly against the tyre on the side towards which the vehicle could roll. Use wheel chocks in pairs when required by the vehicle, surface conditions or workplace safety procedures.

Check the wheel chocks regularly for damage or excessive wear. Never drive over them. Always remove the chocks before moving the vehicle.

FAQ

1. Is this rubber wheel chock suitable for trucks?

Yes. This truck wheel chock is suitable for vehicles with a maximum vehicle weight of 20 tonnes. Surface conditions, slope, tyre size and correct positioning can affect its performance.

2. What is the difference between the Standard and Reflective versions?

The Standard version is completely black. The Reflective version has yellow reflective sections for better visibility. Both versions have the same dimensions, weight, material and maximum vehicle weight.

3. Should wheel chocks be used in pairs?

Using wheel chocks in pairs generally provides better vehicle stability. The required number and position depend on the vehicle, surface, slope and workplace safety procedures.

4. Can I use this wheel chock on a sloped surface?

You can use the chock on a firm and stable surface when you position it correctly. However, a steeper slope increases the risk of movement. Always follow the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions and your workplace safety procedures.

5. Does a wheel chock replace the parking brake?

No. Always apply the parking brake first. A rubber wheel chock provides additional protection against unintended vehicle movement.

6. What is the difference between a wheel chock and a wheel stop?

A wheel chock is portable and placed against a tyre after parking. A wheel stop is permanently fixed to the ground and marks the stopping position inside a parking space.
