Vestil BTA Aluminum Dock Boards bridge the gap between loading dock and truck allowing a forklift to quickly and easily load and unload trucks. These heavy duty OSHA compliant aluminum dock boards have an 8,000 LB capacity, anti-slip tread plate deck, and a beveled edge allowing for smooth entry and exit. Locking legs hold the dock board steady during use and are designed to be slightly uneven allowing the dock board to sit canted for easier pickup by a forklift for transport. Welded aluminum safety curbs aid in preventing runoffs and provide a visible through lane for the forklift driver. Aluminum dock boards feature a bend that is 11° and 9" from the edge and legs that are 12" from the edge. Constructed of high strength aluminum for years of reliable service.
Vestil BTA Aluminum Dock Boards are built to order with an estimated lead time to leave the warehouse of 20 to 25 business days.
