Rubber for Mechanical Handling
Durable and robust elastomeric products to both protect and support have been manufactured by Walker Rubber for generations. Whatever your application, we can advise on appropriate material choices and the most cost-effective manufacturing process to help you source the right solution for your equipment or handling application.
Recommended Rubber Extrusions for Mechanical Handling
Rubber bumpers are excellent at protecting walls from scrapes and more serious impact damage by absorbing energy through compression. Highly resistant to weathering, our EPDM buffers and protectors are the perfect fit choice for high impact and demanding situations. Our customers in the Mechanical Handling industry also use our rubber protectors on Forklifts to protect the equipment and walls from any impact event and our rubber brick grabs, also manufactured from EPDM in our UK facility, are a great way of loading and unloading safely and securely.

Did You Know...?
Rubber is often overlooked as an option for heavy duty applications. When you’re moving heavy packs of concrete blocks and bricks all day, knowing they can be lifted securely and safely whilst minimising the risk of damage or loss is always front of mind. In busy yards and storage facilities there is no better choice than rubber lined jaws on your brick grabs.
