SAFETY FIRST

Enhance Vehicle Safety with TopROPS' Wheel Chocks in Canada

Wheel chocks are simple yet effective devices that are placed either behind or in front of a vehicle's wheels to prevent unintentional movement. While they may often go unnoticed, wheel chocks are incredibly handy in various situations.

​

Unintended vehicle movement can be extremely dangerous, posing a significant risk to individuals nearby. It is highly recommended to use industrial wheel chocks when loading, unloading, hitching, unhitching, or servicing a vehicle.

​

These compact commercial wheel chocks serve the vital purpose of preventing wheels from rolling. Investing in wheel chocks is a cost-effective measure that significantly enhances safety for you and those around you.

Wheel Chock Application by TopROPS

How Do Wheel Chocks Work?

Wheel chocks in Canada are used in open pit mining, construction sites, hydro dam projects, and hard & soft rock mining to prevent accidents. 

​

The purpose of our lightweight wheel chocks is to stop the vehicle tire from moving further. For best results, wheel chocks should be placed below the vehicle’s center of gravity.

 

For an uphill grade, the position of the chock should be behind the rear wheels. Similarly, for a downhill grade, it should be in front of the front wheels.

Things To Consider Before Purchasing Wheel Chocks.

If you are planning on buying wheel chocks, consider the below-mentioned points when choosing the right product.

​

  • Wheel size

  • Condition of the ground surface

  • Gross vehicle operating weight

  • Tire pressure level variance due to environment

  • Level of the ground

  • Type of tire

How To Properly Install Wheel Chocks?

Properly installed wheel chocks offer maximum safety and protection.

Here’s how to properly install them.

​

  • While installing, make sure that wheel chocks are placed in the center of the tire.

  • Try to position the wheel chocks against the tire tread.

  • Keep wheel chocks downhill and right below the truck or car’s center of gravity.

  • On uphill grade, the chock should be placed behind the rear wheels.

  • On level grade, chocks should be placed at the back and front of a single tire.

  • On downhill grade, keep in front of the front wheels.

  • Always use wheel chocks in pairs.
