Brush Seals and Weather Stripping for Dock Levelers
Benefits of Loading Dock Seals:
One of the most vulnerable areas in any plant is its dock levelers. Dock leveler vulnerability is because even when the plant is closed, the space under a dock leveler is open. If the dock leveler's sides do not have the proper seal or without a seal at all, rodents, insects, and air can quickly enter the plant. Our specially designed brush dock seals will seal a dock leveler virtually air-tight. When the bottom of the shipping door over the leveler has a proper seal, the loading dock seals keep the dock leveler sealed tight.
Don't let air, dust, and pests infiltrate the gaps around your dock leveler. Memtech's nylon brush dock seals and weather-stripping provide an extremely effective way of preventing heat loss and providing non-chemical pest control and dust control around dock levelers. With dock door seals, you can feel confident that any outside penetration will be non-existent. Give us a call at Memtech Brush and upgrade your dock leveler with our custom-fitted dock seals.
Dock Leveler Seals Applications:
The food industry knows:
- The most vulnerable entry-points in a sanitation-sensitive building are its shipping dock leveler gaps.
- Only Memtech Nylon brush dock seals can permanently block these openings while maintaining full flexibility with our dock door seals.
- Bugs, rodents, or flies entering the lower gap cannot get past the side and backside dock seals and enter the building (neither can dust, fumes, or energy-robbing outside air).
The reasons above are how Memtech Brush dock leveler brush seals secure a shipping dock from infestation and infiltration:
When you install a Memtech Nylon Brush Seal Kit on your dock leveler, a constant barrier is maintained over all exposed gaps, no matter how uneven the surfaces are. The rear gap (left), inside the door, is sealed at any level. The side gaps in and outside the door (right) are similarly closed to entry by constant application of the nylon brush material.
Looking to reduce chronic injury and equipment damage at the loading dock?
Many forklift operators travel across conventional dock levelers more than 100,000 times each year. With each pass they experience an unpleasant jarring effect created by the bumps and gaps that exist in outdated leveler designs – so does their equipment and the product being transported.
Also known as dock shock or whole body vibration, these vibrations can lead to chronic back and neck injuries, product spills, and equipment repair costs.
These conditions can be reduced or eliminated with a Smooth Transition dock leveler design – all of which are ANSI MH30.1 tested and certified. File list export 2 4 0 m.
