Steel Yardramp

• All steel welded construction
• Capacities from 16,000 to 60,000 pounds
• Wide range of capacities and sizes available
• Solid rubber tires standard, pneumatic tires optional
• Steel serrated grating
• Double-action hydraulic pump

 

The Yardramp is simply moved into position at trailers, railcars, or docks. The operator utilizes a self-contained, double-acting hydraulic pump to adjust the unit to the proper position. In minutes you are ready to load or unload freight. Solid 18" rubber tires provide easy positioning and towing. Open serrated steel grating provides excellent traction while preventing build-up of snow, water, and other debris. Beveled approach provides a smooth transition. For truck or railcar to ground applications choose a 36' unit including a level off. Choose a 30' straight design for quick loading from dock to ground.

 

Yardramp Features

Hydraulic Pump

• Double-acting
• Two hydraulic cylinders

 

The hydraulic system allows for smooth and quick raising of the front lip to the proper dock or trailer height. Simply open the release valve to safely lower the unit into position. The pump is mounted internally to protect it from accidental damage.

 

Undercarriage Assembly

• Tubular steel box undercarriage assembly
• 18" solid rubber pneumatic profile tires

 

Heavy-duty wheels and solid rubber, pneumatic profile tires make positioning the Yardramp easy. For stationary dock installations, standard Yardramps are available in 30' and 36' lengths without wheel assemblies.

 

Rampclamp

The optional rampclamp assists operator in moving the Yardramp over short distances. Forklift tine inserts into the swiveling lift loop and is secured by a locking device.

 

Grating

• Serrated for Traction
• Self-Cleaning

 

Serrated grating provides excellent traction and the open design prevents buildup of water, snow, oil, grease and miscellaneous debris. The lower end approach plate provides maximum support and smooth transition onto the ramp grating surface.

 

Girders

• Heavy-duty formed steel side girders provide main load-bearing capability
• Steel side girders welded to steel Z members form a superior frame

 

Multiple Z cross members are welded to the side girders, then self-cleaning steel grating is welded to the Z members to form a one-piece unitized Yardramp.

 

Safety Chain

Standard safety chains hold Yardramp securely to the trailer or dock.
