STEEL TECH – DUNNAGE PAD SYSTEM

DICA’s multi-pad system utilizes the unique properties of steel and DICA’s engineered thermoplastic. The patent-pending modular steel dunnage system is specifically designed for the daily challenges concrete pump operators face and can be deployed by a single person to reduce ground bearing pressure.

SteelTech – Dunnage Pad System uses the lightest weight steel and the lowest cost parts that when combined, creates a unified solution that is repeatable, long lasting and efficient.

  • Lightweight solution is packed into a one-person modular system that incorporates the best of steel and plastic.
  • Fully engaged system that reduces ground bearing pressures efficiently and effectively.
  • Designed for small outrigger floats commonly found on concrete pump trucks.
  • Materials will never rot, warp, splinter, delaminate, deteriorate or waterlog.
  • Engineered and manufactured in the USA.

 Setup

STEP 1

Position the (3) Base pads adjacent to each other so the machined grooves line up and there are no gaps between the pads.

STEP 2

Place the steel tubes in the base pad machined grooves. Ensure the tubes are positioned so the holes are face up.

STEP 3

Position the top pad so the guide slats fit between the steel tubes. Slide the top pad until the locking pins seat in the steel tube holes.

STANDARD SETUP

Standard ProStack Slot Lock Cribbing Blocks with interlocking flanges on both the top and bottom.

STEP 1

Position the outrigger pad, ensuring it is level, stable and in full contact with the ground.

STEP 2

Position the first layer of cribbing blocks onto the outrigger pad so that they lock into place.

STEP 3

Cross-stack additional layers of Slot Lock Cribbing Blocks to achieve your desired height.

FiberTech Outrigger Pads are made of Fiber-Reinforce Polymers (FRP). This is a composite material made of a vinylester polymer that is reinforced with specially designed fiberglass.

No. This is one of the significant advantages of fiberglass materials. These same materials are used in the most corrosive environments in the world and will outperform wood crane pads in the most common situations. Nothing encountered on a typical job site will have any effect on the fiberglass materials used in FiberTech Outrigger Pads.

Wet or dry environments have no effect on our fiberglass materials and will not limit their service life. The same material is utilized for applications in submerged salt water and extremely dry desert environments. The typical failure of these pads would be from damage during handling. You can expect 20+ years of service life from FiberTech Outrigger Pads.

UV will not affect the structural integrity of the crane mats for at least 40 years. The resins in the crane mats have UV inhibitors that greatly slow UV degradation. We also apply a secondary coating that also has extremely good UV stabilization.

Wood is a natural material with a very high absorption rate. Due to absorption, wood fibers will splinter crack and break and have large variations of strength, stiffness, and reliability under pressure. All of which leads to unsafe conditions. In comparison, FiberTech Outrigger Pads constructed of FiberReinforced Polymers are virtually impervious to absorption and have reliable molecular, strength and stiffness properties.

-40°F to 131°F / -40C to +55C. FiberTech Outrigger Pads will work outside this range, but there will begin to be a reduction in performance. Please contact us if this is a concern for you.

Yes, they are impervious to water and resistant to chemicals commonly found on construction sites, parking areas and roads. Please contact us if you are concerned about a particular chemical.

Neoprene is a fantastic solution for all of our load distribution products. It allows our products to flex a little on hard surfaces which allows for significantly improved load distribution.
