Added Wheel Restraint for Parked Cars and Trailers
Keeping a vehicle stationary is important when parking, storing or preparing it for loading and unloading. These heavy-duty recycled rubber wheel chocks are supplied as a two-piece set and are intended to help restrict unwanted wheel movement when placed correctly against a tyre. The non-slip feature listed in the product details may be useful when selecting wheel restraints for appropriate parking conditions.
Wheel chocks should always be used alongside the vehicle's parking brake and the manufacturer's recommended safety procedures. They are not a replacement for the braking system. Before use, check that the chocks are suitable for the vehicle's weight, tyre dimensions and parking surface.
Recycled Rubber Construction and Non-Slip Design
The supplied specifications identify recycled rubber as the material and non-slip performance as a special feature. Rubber construction can provide a firm contact surface, while the listed non-slip design is intended to help the chocks remain positioned during appropriate use.
Actual grip depends on the condition of the chock, the tyre and the ground beneath it. The supplied details do not include independent traction testing or a specific load rating for vehicle restraint, so avoid assuming suitability for every surface or vehicle type. Inspect the product before use and confirm compatibility with your intended application.
Compact Package for Storage and Transport
The package dimensions are listed as 22.86 × 22.61 × 9.91 cm, with a total package weight of 2.4 kg. These measurements can help you assess storage requirements in a garage, workshop or vehicle-accessory compartment.
The package dimensions should not be treated as the exact measurements of each individual chock. If you need precise chock dimensions to match a particular tyre, confirm them with the seller before ordering. Checking the actual product size is especially important when space around the tyre is limited.
Choosing Chocks for Cars and Trailers
The product title identifies cars and trailers as the intended applications. However, vehicle weights and tyre dimensions vary, and the same wheel chock may not be appropriate for every vehicle. Consider the vehicle's weight, tyre size, parking conditions and the manufacturer's recommended restraint requirements before purchase.
The supplied specification includes a field labelled “Capacity per Stand” with a value of 1.3 kg. This figure appears unusually low for a vehicle wheel chock and may refer to an incorrect or mismatched specification. Do not interpret it as a confirmed vehicle load capacity; ask the seller to verify the correct rating before use.
Safe Placement, Inspection and Maintenance
Park on firm, stable ground whenever possible, engage the parking brake and place the chocks firmly against the appropriate tyres according to the vehicle manufacturer's instructions. Use the required number and placement of restraints for the specific vehicle and parking conditions.
Do not assume the chocks are suitable for steep slopes, loose ground or slippery surfaces. Check the rubber for cracks, splitting, deformation or other visible deterioration before each use. Stop using damaged chocks and store the pair in a suitable location between uses. Never use wheel chocks as support equipment for a lifted vehicle.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many wheel chocks are included?
The listing specifies two pieces. Check that both chocks are included when your order arrives and inspect them for damage before use.
What material are these wheel chocks made from?
The specifications list recycled rubber. If you need details about the recycled content, rubber composition or material grade, confirm them with the seller before purchasing.
What does the non-slip feature mean?
The product listing identifies the chocks as non-slip. Actual grip depends on the tyre, ground surface and condition of the chock, so this feature should not be treated as a guarantee against vehicle movement.
Are these chocks suitable for cars?
The title lists cars as an intended application. Confirm the chocks' dimensions and verified load rating against your vehicle's weight and tyre size before relying on them.
Can I use these wheel chocks with a trailer?
Trailers are included in the product title. However, trailer weight and tyre dimensions vary, so verify suitability for your particular trailer and parking conditions before use.
What are the package dimensions?
The package measures 22.86 × 22.61 × 9.91 cm according to the supplied details. These are package dimensions and may differ from the measurements of each individual chock.
How much does the set weigh?
The listed item weight is 2.4 kg, and the package details also state 2.4 kg. Confirm the delivered product weight if exact weight is important for your storage or transport requirements.
What does the listed 1.3 kg capacity mean?
The specification states “Capacity per Stand: 1.3 kg,” but this value appears unusually low for a vehicle wheel chock. Ask the seller to confirm the correct rating before using the product to restrain a vehicle.
Do wheel chocks replace the parking brake?
No. Wheel chocks are an additional physical restraint and should be used alongside the parking brake and the vehicle manufacturer's recommended parking procedures.
How should I maintain the chocks?
Inspect them regularly for cracks, splitting, deformation or other damage. Keep them in suitable storage and do not use a chock that is damaged or cannot sit securely against the tyre.
