The Rubber Wheel Chock 157×72mm is a compact, purpose-designed rubber chock for securing paper rolls, steel coils, cable drums, and similar cylindrical loads during storage and transport. Cut to length from a 1000mm bar, this chock provides a simple, low-cost wedging solution that prevents cylindrical items from rolling — a critical safety requirement in printing plants, steel stockholders, electrical cable depots, and paper warehouses across the UK.
Key Features
- Compact profile: 157×72mm cross-section — sized to effectively chock standard industrial paper rolls and steel coils without excess bulk
- Cut-to-length format: Supplied as 1000mm lengths that can be further cut to suit specific roll diameters and storage configurations
- Dense rubber compound: Heavy-duty rubber resists crushing under the significant weight of large paper rolls and steel coils
- Self-gripping base: Rubber-to-concrete friction prevents the chock from sliding away under load
- No fixings required: Simply place chocks at each end of the roll — no drilling, no adhesive, no damage to warehouse floor
- Lightweight handling: At 7kg per 1000mm bar, single-person deployment without manual handling risk
Technical Specification
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Cross-section dimensions | 157 × 72mm |
| Length supplied | 1000mm (1 metre) |
| Weight | 7 kg per 1000mm bar |
| Material | Dense rubber compound |
| Primary use | Paper roll & steel coil chocking |
| Can be cut | Yes — cut to required length with a sharp blade or saw |
Applications
- Printing and paper industry: Chocking newsprint rolls, coated paper rolls, and jumbo rolls in paper warehouses and print rooms
- Steel stockholders: Securing steel coils and strip-wound coils in storage bays — critical where coils are stored on flat floors
- Cable and wire depots: Preventing cable drums and reel cores from rolling during storage and picking operations
- Barrel and drum storage: Any cylindrical container storage where roll-away presents a crush or collision risk
- Transport securing: Used inside vehicle load areas to prevent rolls from shifting in transit
- Textile mills: Securing fabric rolls and beam rolls during storage between processing stages
Safety Compliance
Uncontrolled rolling of heavy cylindrical loads is a documented cause of crush injuries and fatalities in UK industrial workplaces. The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and LOLER 1998 require employers to control the movement of loads in storage. Wheel chocks are the standard engineering control for cylindrical load immobilisation and are referenced in HSE guidance on roll storage safety.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many chocks do I need per roll?
Use two chocks per cylindrical item — one on each side of the roll. For very heavy rolls or sloped floors, use chocks on both sides at each end (4 total per roll) for maximum security.
Can this chock be used to stop vehicle wheels?
This 157×72mm profile is optimised for cylindrical roll/coil chocking, not vehicle wheel chocking. For vehicle wheel chocks, see our full wheel chock range including our 545×300mm pump truck stop.
