SERCO - Entrematic Loading Dock Products Company Profile

New dock seals made of wear-resistant fabric

Offered in two models (IDS-HP and IDS-HC), new Ironside loading dock seals feature ultra high wear-resistant fabric certified to withstand more than 40,000 abrasion cycles. The seals’ fabric is impervious to the abrasive movements caused by air ride suspensions and intermodal trailers. Highlights of the IDS-HP dock seal model include heat-sealed, full-length yellow guide stripes embedded in and welded into the fabric, a head pad with a full width wear face and 4-inch exposure wear panels. The IDS-HC version includes a head curtain constructed of 1 x 3-inch encapsulated foam chambers that provide a secure seal for trailer tops. Structurally, both models incorporate roll-formed, galvanized steel framing and an endurance-tested foam core continuously bonded to the frame surface with a flexible, nonflammable adhesive.

Dock Seals face a more challenging environment than ever before. Taller door openings servicing varying height trailers are obstacles to effective sealing. A

ir ride suspension and intermodal trailers create more abrasive movement on dock seals than traditional suspension trailers.

Trailers often have sharp edges at the interface with the dock seal. All of this adds up to a shorter life span for seal products.

The Serco Ironside™ model IDS-HC Dock Seal is specifically designed to combat these issues while providing superior environmental control.

Featuring exclusive UHWR ultra high wear resistant fabric, the new Ironside IDS-HP and IDS-HC loading dock seals withstand abrasive movements caused by air ride suspensions and intermodal trailers for long life.

Tested and certified as resisting more than 40,000 abrasion cycles, the units also feature a head pad that counters the prying effect of trailer movement and yard spotters with heat-sealed, full-length yellow guide stripes embedded in and welded (not sewn) into the UHWR fabric.
