Disc Brake Hold Down
Convert your existing problematic mechanical hold-down dock leveler with the Blue Giant leading technology, trouble-free disc brake hold-down assembly. Eliminate problems associated with traditional rigid style ratchet hold-downs and the wear and tear issues that are created by air-ride trailer suspension movement.
- The hold-down system is air-ride trailer compatible.
- Maintains constant lip contact to truck/ trailer bed.
- One directional gear equals less wear on pawls provides greater longevity as only one side of the pawls are subjected to the teeth of the gear.
- Located underside of the deck, fully protected from the debris one.
- Easy access for visual inspection.
- Proven automotive disc brake technology; calipers will automatically release pressure on the hold-down to compensate for trailer movement without causing damage to the system.
