Copperloy yard ramps and semi truck ramps are designed to maximize productivity by allowing you to use your available space more efficiently. Your forklift operators will also have easier access to truck trailers and shipping containers, so you can get more jobs done in less time. more quickly. More importantly, they are far safer than standard industry ramps, protecting both operators and cargo from potential accidents.

Copperloy heavy-duty truck ramps offer many advantages. With a unique single-acting hydraulic design and several other features, unloading trucks has never been easier. Here are some reasons why you should get a Copperloy semi truck ramp:

• Fast Raise Times & Easy Operation – Our single-acting hydraulic system allows you to raise your ramp 2.5X faster than the industry standard. The hand pump is also located on the exterior, so you can set it up in less time with less effort.
• Durable Construction – We use only the finest metal materials for our steel and aluminum ramps to ensure your equipment lasts as long as possible. Wear and tear are no match for our high-strength ramp design.
• Balance & Stability – With a centrally located hydraulic cylinder, Copperloy semi truck ramps actively prevent wobbling and tipping. This ensures forklifts can travel up and down the ramp more smoothly with minimal risk of an accident occurring.
• Superior Mobility – Our ramps offer several mobility features including a positioning sleeve, tow bar, and pneumatic tires. Moving your ramp between tasks is quick and easy, and the solid tires ensure the ramp can handle even the roughest terrain.

Another benefit of choosing Copperloy is receiving the highest quality regardless of your budget. Whether you buy new, used, or even rent a semi truck ramp, you always get factory-certified equipment that will give your dock the boost it needs.

Standard industry semi truck ramps use double-acting hydraulic systems, making them take too long to set up and are difficult to move. Copperloy tractor trailer ramps use single-acting hydraulics, resulting in raise times that are 2.5X faster and higher mobility.

We also design our ramps with the hydraulic hand pump on the exterior, so setting up your ramp is quick and easy. Once you raise your ramp, you can store the handle away to protect it from wear and tear.

This feature allows forklifts to maneuver the ramp a full 180 degrees. This makes turning and repositioning the ramp much less difficult and time-consuming, so you are not losing daylight to unnecessary downtime.

The towbar allows you to tow the ramp up to 5-mph throughout your facility. Included with both steel and aluminum semi truck ramps.

Air-filled tires are prone to deflating and popping, requiring frequent maintenance. Copperloy ramps use pneumatic tires that do require refilling, so they are essentially maintenance-free. Although these tires are solid, their cushioned design allows for just enough give to handle tough terrain.

*These features are not designed for high-speed, over-the-road towing. If you need to move your ramp long distances, you will need specialized transport.

This feature ensures that forklifts are traveling on a level surface as they enter and exit the truck trailer. It also allows forklifts to work without having to stop as often, so loading tasks take much less time.

The lip of the ramp lowers and rests onto the truck carrier body while the included safety chains link the trailer and ramp together. This prevents the ramp from pulling away and makes loading safer.

This plate sits lower than a forklift’s wheelbase. This ensures all wheels are firmly planted on the ground whenever a forklift accesses the ramp. The low-end plate creates smooth ground-level entry, eliminating the bumps you would encounter on other ramps.

Every Copperloy semi truck ramp is constructed with a serrated steel grating. The grating bars are incredibly durable, and with 1-3/4 inch spaces between each bar, snow, rain, and debris can easily pass through, maintaining a high-traction surface even during inclement weather.

Our ramps include 7-inch curbs with a patented box frame design to prevent runoff while forklifts travel up and down the ramp.

Our unique single-acting hydraulic design also makes the ramp more stable. With the cylinder in the center, our ramps naturally compensate for shifts in weight distribution and prevent tipping or wobbling.

A Copperloy semi truck ramp is the most effective method for expanding your dock capacity. The single-acting hydraulic design allows you to set up a mobile freight handling station in minutes. With a variety of performance and safety features, you can noticeably improve workflow to get more jobs done in less time.

Positioning a heavy-duty truck ramp only requires a few quick and easy steps. You start by closing the pump’s release valve, sliding the pump handle into the opening, and cranking until the ramp reaches the proper height. Secondly, use a forklift to move the ramp towards the truck trailer until the ramp lip is entirely over the bed. Lastly, open the release valve to allow the ramp to settle onto the trailer floor and secure the ramp with the included safety chains. Now, you are ready to work!
