Poweramp Vehicle Restraints

PowerHook® Series Automatic Restraint

Loading Dock Truck Restraint

The PowerHook is a non-impact, self-aligning hydraulic restraint stored in the dock pit and is the most effective truck restraining device available on the market.

The PowerHook® restraint is anchored in the loading dock pit for maximum holding strength. The hook remains recessed and protected behind the pit wall until activation, making it easy to maintain the dock exterior. Because it stores in the pit, the restraint is completely concealed and out of the way. This is a great advantage when clearing the drive approach of snow or debris.

Features

• Stored in the dock pit and out of the way when clearing the drive approach of snow or debris.
• Actively seeks and secures a trailer’s Rear Impact Guard (RIG).
• Maintains a positive hydraulic hold of the RIG for zero running room.
• Rapidly flashing exterior light if the truck attempts to pull away while secured.
• LED 3-light system for advanced communication between the truck driver and dock attendant.

Designed to withstand a pulling force over 35,000 lbs, providing an extra margin of safety and protection. This restraint has the widest service range in the industry, with a horizontal range of 0” to 15” from the building and a vertical range from 7” to 34” off the drive. Extended ranges are available for special applications. With over 10,000 applications over a twenty-year period, the durability and reliability of PowerHook® are unmatched in the industry.

TPR UniLock® Automatic Restraint

Loading Dock Truck Restraint

An upgrade to the standard TPR Series, the UniLock has an added internal safety mechanism and an advanced cam design that rotates the hook away from the trailer’s Rear Impact Guard (RIG) to release. “RIG Wedge” pressure. The UniLock has an advanced cam design that first rotates the hook away from the RIG to remove the pressure and then rotates down to a stored position.

The UniLock vehicle restraint also has an internal safety mechanism that locks the restraint’s hook in place when pressure is applied, maintaining a secure engagement. That makes it universally effective on any obstructed Rear Impact Guard (RIG), including intermodal trailers with cover plates that prevent the restraint’s hook from latching on top of the RIG.

Features

• Automatically releases RIG Wedge pressure without the trailer reversing.
• Locking mechanism to prevent the restraint from disengaging the trailer’s RIG when pressure is applied.
• Universally effective on any obstructed Rear Impact Guard, including intermodal trailers with cover plates.
• LED 3-light system for advanced communication between the truck driver and dock attendant.

Designed to withstand a pulling force over 32,000 lbs and has a service range of 4” to 10” horizontally from the face of the dock bumpers and 9” to 30” vertically above the drive approach. The integral motor, gear, and brake assembly are designed explicitly for the UniLock, and the UniLock vehicle restraint is highly adaptable to new or existing loading docks.

Features

• The unit automatically positions itself when impacted by the RIG.
