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

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

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

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

Why Is It Critical to Secure Loading Dock Operations?

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.
