Vestil M-4-12 Half-oval Rubber Fender Bumper 12 in

Product Description

The VESTIL M-4-12 is an extruded synthetic rubber half-oval fender bumper designed to protect loading dock faces, warehouse walls, and vehicle fender areas from impact damage. Measuring 12 inches wide and 4.5 inches high with a 4-inch projection, this bumper absorbs and deflects contact loads from trailers, carts, and equipment. Constructed from durable rubber rated at Durometer 70A hardness, it delivers firm yet flexible impact resistance. The bolt-on mount design uses two mounting holes with a 0.875-inch bolt hole diameter, allowing straightforward installation on steel dock frames, concrete walls, or structural lumber.

This bumper suits a wide range of industrial and commercial applications including loading docks, warehouse receiving areas, parking facilities, and fleet maintenance bays. Its B-shape profile and extruded rubber construction make it a practical replacement or upgrade for worn or missing fender bumpers on dock levelers, truck bays, and vehicle service lanes. Facilities managers and dock equipment installers typically specify this style of bumper where repeated low-to-medium impact contact is expected.

Compatibility

Designed as a bolt-on replacement or new-installation fender bumper for loading docks, warehouse walls, and vehicle service structures requiring a half-oval extruded rubber profile with a 4-inch projection and 12-inch width.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by dock equipment technicians or maintenance personnel using standard hand tools. Confirm that the mounting substrate, whether steel plate, concrete embed, or structural lumber, can support the shear and pull-out loads expected at the bumper location before fastening. Use appropriately rated fasteners for the substrate type and verify bolt hole alignment before final tightening. Inspect the mounting surface for damage or corrosion prior to installation to ensure a flush, secure fit.
