Extended Product Information

FAQs

What materials are the AB Tools JAG175 Tipper Blocks made from?

The blocks feature a steel base plate bonded to a rubber tipper pad. The steel base plate measures 355mm x 75mm x 3mm, and the rubber pad measures 287mm x 75mm x 30mm.

How are these Tipper Blocks installed?

These are weld-on blocks, meaning they must be permanently attached to the trailer frame using professional welding techniques.

What is the primary benefit of using these blocks?

Their primary benefit is to absorb shock and vibration during the tipping process, which minimizes damage to the trailer and its load.

Do I need special tools to install them?

Yes, professional welding equipment and expertise are required for proper installation.

Can these blocks be used on any type of trailer?

They are designed for tipper trailers. Compatibility depends on the specific design of your trailer's tipping mechanism and available mounting space.

How should I maintain the Tipper Blocks?

Inspect welds regularly, clean with water and mild detergent, and check the rubber pad for wear. Replace if damaged to ensure continued shock absorption.

What does '1pc' mean in the product description?

'1pc' indicates that each purchase includes one complete weld-on rubber tipper block assembly.

Troubleshooting

Block detaches from trailer frame

This indicates a weld failure. The block must be re-welded by a professional, ensuring proper penetration and material adhesion.

Excessive vibration persists

Check if the rubber pad is damaged or compressed beyond its effective limit. Ensure the block is correctly positioned to provide maximum shock absorption.

Rubber pad appears degraded

Inspect the rubber for cracks, tears, or swelling. If degraded, the rubber pad may need replacement or the entire block assembly might require substitution.

Trailer frame shows signs of stress near the block

This could indicate improper installation or overloading. Ensure the weld is sound and consider if the trailer is being subjected to forces beyond its design capacity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly reduces shock and vibration during use.
  • Protects trailer components and cargo from impact damage.
  • Durable construction ensures a long service life.
  • Provides a more stable platform when the trailer is tipped.
  • Designed for a secure and permanent weld-on fit.

Cons

  • Requires professional welding equipment and skills for installation.
  • Not suitable for trailers that do not require shock absorption.
  • The fixed dimensions may not fit all trailer configurations without modification.
  • Adds weight to the trailer structure.
  • Corrosion may occur on unprotected steel parts over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the trailer's tipping mechanism and frame are clean and free of rust or debris where the block will be attached.
  2. Position the AB Tools JAG175 block in the desired location.
  3. Professional Welding Required: This product must be securely welded onto the trailer frame by a qualified welder using appropriate techniques and materials.
  4. Allow the weld to cool completely before use.

Compatibility:

  • Designed for use on tipper trailers. Compatibility depends on the trailer's tipping mechanism design and available mounting space.
  • The dimensions (Steel base: 355mm x 75mm x 3mm; Rubber pad: 287mm x 75mm x 30mm) should be checked against the trailer's specifications.

Care:

  • Regularly inspect the welds for any signs of stress or cracking.
  • Clean the rubber and steel components with water and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh solvents that could degrade the rubber.
  • Check for any signs of excessive wear on the rubber pad and replace if necessary to maintain shock absorption capabilities.
