WEARTOUGH® Fabric Performance Specifications

Description

The WEARTOUGH® Series of inflatable dock shelters provide effective protection for personnel and cargo while loading and off loading trailers. The inflated seal pushes tight against the side and top of the trailer to help keep out inclement weather, dust and insects and creating a more productive and safer environment while saving energy costs and increasing security.

Operation

Once the trailer is positioned against the bumpers for loading, the operator switches the control button to start the blower that in turn inflates the bag assemblies against the top and sides of the trailer creating a seal. The blower runs continuous as long as the loading or off loading is being carried out. When loading is complete, the operator turns off the switch and the shelter bags automatically retract away from the trailer.

Construction

The bags are constructed from flexible and UV resistant 16 oz. High-Tear vinyl fabric; double lock stitched and attached to the pressure treated lumber or optional steel framing. The 1/2 HP 115 volt or optional 230-volt motor/blower is integral mounted within the head frame. The on/off switch is mounted to the interior wall and equipped with a power on pilot light. A torsion spring retraction system is mounted within the head frame. Condensation drainage holes are provided in the bag assemblies. All mounting hardware is galvanized steel.
