WHY USE TRAILER STANDS & JACKS?
The landing gear on a trailer only ‘spots’ the combined weight of cargo and forklifts. This can leave the trailer in a very rocky, unsafe position. The trailers can up-end, or landing gear can collapse, creating potentially devastating situations for workers caught within.
Trailer stability is affected by a complex relationship involving number of axles, trailer weight, landing gear placement, weight & placement of cargo, weight & position of forklift and more.
Understanding the load and stability ratings of all the different equipment in the marketplace is beyond the training of most forklift drivers, making every trip into the nose of the trailer a gamble.
THE SIMPLE (IRONGUARD) SOLUTION.
When the cab disengages from the trailer, the trailer is at risk of collapse unless a secondary support system is utilized. For strength and support, Super-Seal has partnered with leading safety solutions provider; IRONguard. The IRONguard’s line up of portable Trailer Stands can be easily placed under a trailer’s front end to help prevent mishap and tragedy.
