This guide is for trailer owners and operators using tipper trailers. The AB Tools Weld On Rubber Tipper Blocks (4pc) offer a key benefit of significantly reducing shock and vibration during operation, thus minimizing damage to the trailer and its load. A potential caveat is that these are a weld-on component, requiring professional installation if you are not experienced with welding.

These blocks are specifically designed for tipper trailers. They are a weld-on component and require appropriate mounting points on the trailer chassis or tipping mechanism.
The primary benefit is shock and vibration absorption, which minimizes damage to the trailer and its components, leading to increased longevity and a smoother operation.
Clean the blocks with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the rubber.
The steel base plate is 355mm x 75mm x 3mm, and the rubber tipper pad is 287mm x 75mm x 30mm.
This package includes four (4) weld-on rubber tipper blocks.
No, these blocks are designed to be welded onto the trailer frame for secure mounting. Professional welding is recommended if you are not experienced.
The lifespan depends on usage frequency, load weight, and environmental conditions. Regular inspection and care will help maximize their durability.
Ensure the rubber pad is facing the correct direction for maximum impact absorption. Verify that the weld has created a secure bond and that there are no gaps. Check for any obstructions that might be preventing full contact.
This may indicate a faulty bond or excessive stress. Inspect the weld for integrity. If the bond is compromised, the block may need to be replaced.
Confirm that all four blocks are installed and functioning correctly. Ensure that the blocks are positioned to buffer the primary impact points. Consider if additional dampening measures might be necessary for your specific load or trailer.
Setup:
These blocks are designed to be welded onto the chassis or tipper mechanism of a trailer. Proper surface preparation (cleaning and degreasing the weld area) is essential for a strong bond. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified welder. Ensure the blocks are positioned correctly to align with the tipping action and provide optimal shock absorption.
Compatibility:
These tipper blocks are compatible with most standard tipper trailer designs where a weld-on solution is feasible. They are intended for use on the tipping points or buffer areas of the trailer. Always verify that the dimensions and mounting points are suitable for your specific trailer model before installation.
Care:
Regular inspection of the rubber and steel components for any signs of wear, cracking, or separation is advised. Clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents, as these can degrade the rubber material. Ensure the welded joints remain secure.
