Recycled Plastic Wheel Stops for Mining Sites

2

The Small Asset That Takes a Beating

Wheel stops might seem minor until they fail.

On mining sites, they endure:

  • Heavy haul trucks

  • Light vehicle fleets

  • UV exposure

  • Constant dust and abrasion

Traditional concrete cracks.
Steel corrodes.
Timber splinters.

Recycled plastic wheel stops are:

  • Impact-resistant

  • UV stabilised

  • Non-corrosive

  • Lightweight for easier installation

They reduce replacement frequency especially valuable for remote operations.

Practical Tip: Compare replacement rates over 5 years not installation cost.
