FAQs

What material are the AB Tools Oval Rubber Buffers made from?

They are made from a robust and durable synthetic rubber.

How many buffers are included in a pack?

Each pack contains 4 oval rubber buffers.

Can these buffers be used outdoors?

Yes, they are suitable for both internal and external use due to their durable, weather-resistant synthetic rubber construction.

What are the dimensions of the oval buffer?

The total length is 72mm, the total width is 38mm, and the standoff/depth is 38mm.

Do the buffers come with screws for mounting?

No, screws for mounting are not included, as the appropriate type will depend on the surface you are attaching them to.

What is the primary function of these buffers?

Their primary function is to act as a shock absorber, preventing damage to vehicle bodies, doors, walls, and floors from impacts.

Are these buffers suitable for heavy-duty industrial applications?

They are suitable for commercial use such as loading bays, but for extremely high-impact applications, it's advisable to assess their capacity or consider additional protective measures.

Troubleshooting

Buffer is not staying in place.

Ensure the mounting surface is solid and that appropriate screws are used and securely tightened. Check that the pre-drilled holes in the buffer are not damaged.

Buffer is not absorbing sufficient impact.

Verify that the buffer is positioned correctly to intercept the intended impact. For very heavy impacts, additional or larger protective measures may be required.

Visible wear and tear after a short period.

Inspect the mounting surface for sharp edges that could be causing abrasion. Ensure the buffer is rated for the type and frequency of impacts it is experiencing.

Pros and Cons

  • Provides excellent protection against impact damage.
  • Durable construction ensures long-lasting performance.
  • Versatile use for various commercial and personal vehicles/spaces.
  • Suitable for both internal and external mounting applications.
  • Simple to install with pre-drilled holes.

Cons

  • May not fully absorb extremely high-impact forces.
  • Requires secure mounting for optimal performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the desired mounting location. Ensure the surface is clean and dry.
  2. Align the buffer with the pre-drilled holes against the mounting surface.
  3. Mark the hole positions.
  4. Drill pilot holes if necessary for the chosen mounting hardware (screws not included).
  5. Secure the buffer firmly using appropriate screws for the mounting surface.

Compatibility:

These buffers are compatible with a wide range of surfaces including metal, wood, and concrete, provided suitable fixing hardware is used. They are designed for use on truck tailboards, trailer tailboards, horse boxes, shutter doors, motor homes, loading bays, garage walls, and general impact protection points.

Care:

Clean the buffers periodically with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the synthetic rubber. The durable material is designed to withstand outdoor conditions, but regular inspection ensures continued optimal performance.
