How to Choose a Wheel Chock

  • Measure the size of your wheel. Wheel Chocks should be about 1/4 of the height of the tire. Choose the correct Wheel chock size here. 
  • Consider the gradient of the terrain and if necessary purchase a larger chock than for flat ground
  • Consider the weight of the vehicle. Our chocks are all heavy duty because polyurethane is strong. But we offer various sizes and strengths.
  • Always use chocks on firm ground. Beware of wet or icy or unstable conditions. 
  • Consider the number of chocks required whether you want to chock all wheel or only the front wheels, and whether you want to chock both sides of the wheel.
  • For Aircraft or wide tires consider using a specialized aircraft wheel chock.

Praise for Polyurethane Chocks

Polyurethane has overtaken rubber in popularity for wheel chocks, and the reasons speak for themselves:

  • Polyurethane weighs 75% less than rubber
  • Polyurethane can be made in High Visibility Colors to increase safety
  • Polyurethane holds up really well under use and abuse
  • Polyurethane has a higher load bearing capacity than rubber
  • Polyurethane has great oil, chemical, fuel and lubricant resistance
  • Polyurethane has high cut and tear resistance
  • Polyurethane has a higher abrasion point than rubber
  • Polyurethane stable so it can be used indoors or outside
  • It has a broad range of hardness, which means it can be used in a greater variety of applications than rubber
  • Rubber rots and degrades over time. Polyurethane handles the elements better over time.
  • Plastic cracks and is sensitive to high pressure and temperature.
  • Metal solutions weigh more, are difficult to handle, create noise and are not corrosion resistant.
  • Polyurethane will outperform plastic, rubber and metal every time!

How to Use our Urethane Wheel Chocks?

  • Always ensure the chock is centered and squared with the tire.
  • Position the chock snuggly against the tire tread.
  • Always use wheel chocks in pairs.
  • Wheel chocks must be positioned downhill and below the vehicle’s center of gravity.
  • On a downhill grade, position the chocks in front of the front wheels.
  • On an uphill grade, position the chocks behind the rear wheels.
  • On a level grade, position the chocks on the front and back of a single wheel.
