Loading Dock Levelers

RHH Hydraulic

The RHH Hydraulic Dock Leveler offers safety and reliability with the smoothest transitions in the industry.

RHH Hydraulic Dock Leveler Features and Benefits

  • Smooth transition - Constant-radius rear hinge, two-point crown control on the front lip hinge, and an optimized lip chamfer provide a smooth transition from the facility floor to the trailer for your operators, forklifts and products.
  • Vacant dock drop-off protection - Exclusive Safe-T-Lip barrier protects against open dock accidents. The Safe-T-Lip barrier can stop a 10,000 lb (4535 kg) fork lift traveling at 4 mph (6.4 kg/hr) from going over the edge of the loading dock.
  • Environmentally friendly - Hydraulic fluid is biodegradable and out performs traditional industrial-grade fluid.
  • Automatic free-fall protection - Dependable hydraulic velocity fuse stops rapid leveler descent within 3" (76 mm) with a heavy load on the platform.
  • Exclusive Safe-T-StrutTM maintenance support system protects personnel during clean out and inspection and provides lockout/tag out capability. The unique through-the-lip design keeps the strut in place when the leveler is raised to the highest position or is impacted by lift truck.
  • Seal beneath and around the dock leveler - PitMasterTM Under-leveler Seal is an available option that helps prevent energy loss, improve dock cleanliness and increase employee comfort.
  • 12-month money-back satisfaction guarantee standard with all Rite-Hite products.
