Nytrex is a high-strength plastic that is also used in crane construction. The material has unique advantages for dock bumpers. In addition to the very good visibility for truck drivers, the high strength combines with a sliding ability to give the dock bumper a very long service life. The Nytrex dock bumper lasts 7-10 times longer than rubber! The available dimensions are compatible with corresponding mounting plates for rubber bumpers. For a better spring effect, a rubber plate is inserted between the steel plate and the Nytrex material.

NovoSlider combines the excellent properties of the Nytrex material with a long spring deflection and thus comes very close to the ideal for a dock bumper. The steel body is galvanised, which provides it with lasting protection against rust. Due to the lightweight rubber mat, the floating Nytrex material can achieve a maximum deflection of 25 mm and can follow the truck’s movements up and down.

NovoSlider L is mounted above the edge of the ramp and thus prevents the vehicle from driving over the bumper without limiting the loading operations.
NovoLift provides another way of preventing the vehicle from overrunning the dock bumper above the ramp level. A height-adjustable carriage made of steel is guided above the ramp level with the help of a pneumatic spring. After the truck has been docked, the operator can gently press the bumper down with his foot. In the lowest position, the whole carriage automatically locks into place. There is now no longer anything standing in the way of the loading operation. After loading, the carriage can easily be unlocked and runs automatically back to the top position.
As an electronic approach system with a sensor and traffic lights, NovoEASY provides perfect collision protection and ensures that the truck stops shortly before the dock bumper. This avoids damages to the building, to the truck and to the dock bumper. The sensor, which is protected within a dock bumper made of high-performance plastic, measures the distance from the truck to the loading ramp and informs the driver of this via an indicator element (e.g. traffic lights).
Product benefits:
The rubber bumpers consist of a high-quality new rubber mixture. They are particularly abrasion-resistant and have a spring deflection of up to 20 mm.
