Forklift Wheel Stops


Revolution wheel stop is an inexpensive device that can save you a lot of money. Strategically installed in your factory, warehouse, or packaging area, they will stop a forklift truck from being driven somewhere it shouldn’t.  A wheel stop is a triangular steel wedge 41” long. It’s bolted to the floor and painted bright yellow for visibility. At 2” high it’s not so big that it gets in the way, but it’s big enough to stop the wheels of a pallet truck or forklift.

Protect Your Forklift Drivers & Stretch Wrapping Machines.  Forklift trucks are heavy. Many weigh more than 9,000 lbs. Plus, when carrying a loaded pallet, the driver doesn’t have a great view of where the wheels are going. As a result, it’s very easy to drive across the turntable of a stretch wrapper. And no, the stretch wrapper probably isn’t going to handle it well.

A Revolution wheel stop installed just a few inches in front of the stretch wrapper prevents accidents like these. They protect your stretch wrapper investment, and also prevent the delays and disruption that would result from a damaged stretch wrapper.  A well-placed Revolution forklift wheel stop improves stretch wrapping productivity.

Rather than getting out to see if the pallet is positioned over the turntable, or asking a coworker for guidance, the driver edges forward until the wheels hit the Revolution Wheel Stop. That tells the driver the pallet is in position and can be lowered onto the turntable. A few seconds saved on every visit to the wrapper quickly add up to significant efficiency gains!

While stretch wrappers are particularly vulnerable to damage from forklifts, they’re not the only warehouse machine or piece of factory equipment at risk. Protect conveyor belts, machines, and building columns with wheel stops placed where they’ll prevent accidents and damage.

Easy Installation:  Four bolts secure the 41” long Revolution wheel stop to the floor. 3/4” wedge anchors are recommended. Find the perfect position by bringing the forklift truck up to the pallet wrapper. Slide the Revolution wheel stop in front of the front wheel and back the forklift away.

Use a concrete drill to drill the four mounting holes. Then install the wedge anchors. Tighten down to the recommended torque. Now your pallet wrapper or other equipment is protected against roving forklift trucks.
