Fairborn Dock Seals

FOAM DOCK SEAL - Series 1000
with Fixed Head Pad

FOAM DOCK SEAL - Series 1400
with Head Curtain

The Series 1400 Dock Seal saves energy dollars while providing airtight protection to the loading dock area during material handling operations. The Series 1400 effectively services varying height vehicles at a wide range of door heights.

The vehicle positioned at the dock compresses the resilient foam side pads, while the full width head curtain conforms to the truck, eliminating the gap between the facility and the vehicle body. This separation of interior and exterior environments allows for a safe loading dock area while ensuring employee comfort and efficiency.

The structurally supported head curtain is sloped to ensure adequate drainage while being held taut by tension straps at each end.

The airtight barrier that Fairborn dock seals provide regulates the facility’s atmosphere to be free from air-borne contaminants, insects, and foul weather; while enhancing building security.

To ensure maximum durability, Foam Dock Seals are available in our superior performance materials. Fairborn created the first certified performance fabrics designed solely for the construction of dock seals and shelters. Our exclusive materials meet or exceed the most demanding requirements and have proven to out-perform any fabric in today’s dock shelter market.

Options & Features

Fairborn Dock Seal Diagram

1 - Cover Fabric Fairborn offers fabrics in a wide range of colors and performance levels. A valued consideration is Dynalon, one of our superior performance materials. Dynalon’s extraordinary life expectancy is attributed in part to it’s excellent tear and abrasion resistance properties.

2 - Foam Fairborn developed a polyurethane foam to properly compress, while conforming to the irregularities of the vehicle body. Superior recovery characteristics ensure the foam’s return to it’s original shape and size.

3 - Wood Frame The frame is select dimensional lumber of the highest grade, pressure treated and kiln dried before and after treating. (A formed steel frame is optional.)

4 - Chemical Weld The foam is chemically bonded to the entire contact area of the frame to ensure maximum structural integrity.

5 - Air Exhaust Each pad is equipped with properly sized outlets to allow for free air escape during compression while prohibiting moisture infiltration.

6 - Guide Stripe Each side pad includes highly visible yellow stripes to facilitate accurate truck positioning. Fairborn developed a superior “Urethane Finish” to ensure greater stripe durability while maintaining a clean appearance.

7 - Tension Straps The head curtain is held taut by elastic straps at each end to ensure it will conform to the top of the vehicle body.

8 - Support Stays Scotchply™* stays, supported at each end, maintain a proper head curtain slope to provide for adequate drainage, while guaranteeing the curtain a neat appearance.

9 - Cross Member The head curtain is supported by a structural rigid tubing held in place by a continuous fabric sleeve incorporated into the top, front edge of the curtain.

10 - Thread All stitching is performed by professional seamstresses utilizing bonded, high tensile, multi-cord polyester thread. The sewn construction provides for lockstitch, proper tension, and backtack sewing techniques throughout.
