Product Overview

The RUBASIA RUBBERTECH INDUSTRIES Solid Rubber Wheel Chock (Model 160) is a heavy-duty, industrial-grade safety block designed to prevent vehicles, trucks, trailers, and machinery from rolling or moving unintentionally.

Manufactured from solid vulcanized rubber, it provides strong ground grip, oil and UV resistance, and durability in tropical Borneo environments, making it ideal for use across Sabah, Sarawak, and Brunei.

Each unit is Made in Malaysia, built under strict quality control standards, and trusted by transport, aviation, construction, and industrial sectors throughout Kota Kinabalu, Miri, Bintulu, Sibu, and Bandar Seri Begawan.

 

How to Use a Rubber Wheel Chock — Step-by-Step Guide

🧰 Step 1: Park the Vehicle Safely

1. Always park the vehicle on stable ground (concrete, asphalt, or compacted gravel).
2. Engage the parking brake and ensure the transmission is in Park (for automatic) or Gear (for manual).
3. Turn off the engine before applying the chock.

 

🧩 Step 2: Determine the Wheel Position

1. Identify the direction of the slope or potential movement.
   • If the surface is flat, chocks can be placed on both sides of one wheel for extra safety.
   • If the surface is sloped, always place the chock on the downhill side of the tire.
2. For two-wheel vehicles (trailers, carts, forklifts), use at least one chock per wheel.
3. For four-wheel vehicles or trucks, use a minimum of two chocks — one on each side of the vehicle.

 

🪵 Step 3: Position the Wheel Chock

1. Hold the chock by its built-in rope hole or handle for safe placement.
2. Push the chock firmly against the tire tread until it fits tightly.
3. Ensure the cleated (grooved) bottom is fully in contact with the ground for maximum grip.
4. The curved surface of the chock should sit flush against the tire curve — this ensures proper load distribution and friction hold.

 

🪜 Step 4: Double Check Placement

1. Visually confirm the chock is straight and aligned with the wheel.
2. Gently rock the vehicle slightly forward or backward to ensure the chock locks firmly in place.
3. If movement occurs, reposition or use additional chocks for extra safety.

 

🧠 Step 5: During Use

• Do not rely on a single chock for heavy or multi-axle vehicles — always use pairs.
• Avoid placing chocks on loose sand, mud, or wet grass. If necessary, clear the area or use a flat steel base platebeneath the chock.
• In extreme wet or oily conditions, clean the base of the chock for better traction.

 

🧺 Step 6: After Use

1. When the operation is complete, remove the chock by pulling the rope or handle — never kick or force it.
2. Inspect for damage or deformation before storage.
3. Store in a dry, shaded area away from direct sunlight and petroleum contact to maximize lifespan.

 

Best Practices and Safety Tips

✅ Always use at least two wheel chocks — one for each side of a vehicle axle.
✅ Place chocks on the downhill side of the wheel on slopes.
✅ Never stand directly in front or behind the wheel while placing or removing chocks.
✅ For aircraft or heavy trucks, assign a trained safety officer to monitor proper chock placement.
✅ Regularly inspect the cleats and edges for wear, cracks, or oil contamination.
✅ Replace the chock if rubber hardens, cracks, or loses traction.

 

Application Examples in Real Industry Scenarios

🚛 1. Trucking and Logistics Operations

• At loading docks and warehouses in Kota Kinabalu, Sandakan, Bintulu, and Kuching, wheel chocks prevent trucks from rolling while forklifts load cargo.
• Used during trailer coupling or decoupling to secure vehicles on slopes.
• Mandatory safety tool in transport hubs, courier centers, and freight depots across Brunei (Bandar Seri Begawan, Seria, Kuala Belait).

 

🏗️ 2. Construction and Heavy Equipment Sites

• For cranes, excavators, and dump trucks, chocks keep vehicles stationary during rest periods or refueling.
• Commonly used in hilly construction areas like Ranau, Tenom, and Tambunan in Sabah or Betong and Kapit in Sarawak.
• Prevents movement of loaded machinery during assembly or disassembly.

 

🛫 3. Airports and Aviation

• Ground crews in KKIA, Bintulu Airport, Miri Airport, and Brunei International Airport use chocks to stabilize aircraft during passenger boarding, refueling, and maintenance.
• The non-marking rubber compound prevents runway damage and meets aviation safety compliancestandards.

 

⚙️ 4. Workshops, Service Centers, and Garages

• Keeps vehicles from rolling off lifts or ramps during tire replacement, alignment, or undercarriage repair.
• Suitable for automotive service centers in Kuching, Sibu, and Bandar Seri Begawan.
• The compact design allows for easy handling and storage in workshop tool areas.

 

🛢️ 5. Oil & Gas, Refinery, and Chemical Plants

• Secures fuel delivery trucks, tankers, and chemical transporters during filling and discharge operations.
• Resistant to oil, grease, diesel, and chemical spills, making it ideal for Petronas, Shell, and Brunei LNG facilities.
• Enhances safety compliance in Bintulu, Miri, Seria, and Kuala Belait industrial zones.

 

🏭 6. Ports, Marine Yards & Warehouses

• Prevents trucks and trailers from shifting during container loading or crane operations at Kota Kinabalu Port, Lahad Datu Jetty, Kuching Port, and Muara Port (Brunei).
• The cleated base design grips firmly on wet concrete or metal deck surfaces.

 

🚐 7. Public Transport, Bus Depots & Fleet Yards

• Prevents buses and vans from moving during cleaning, fueling, or inspection.
• Essential in urban transport hubs in Kuching, Miri, and Bandar Seri Begawan.
• Helps ensure passenger safety and operational compliance.

 

🏕️ 8. Recreational & Private Use

• For caravans, trailers, and motorhomes, wheel chocks stabilize vehicles on hillsides or uneven camping sitesin Tenom, Papar, or Limbang.
• Compact enough for personal storage yet strong enough for small trucks or boats.

 

Maintenance & Inspection Tips

• Clean regularly using mild detergent and water.
• Inspect for cracks or tears monthly, especially after exposure to sunlight or oil.
• Replace immediately if deep cuts, warping, or reduced traction are observed.
• Store indoors to prevent ozone or UV degradation.
• Avoid prolonged oil contact which may soften the rubber surface.
