Technical Information

VeeBoards^® are manufactured from ultra strong, crack resistant, high-density polyethylene and have been tried and tested all over the world. They are light weight, user friendly and long lasting, making them ideal for the rough and tough trucking industry. While being strong enough to hold a load of drums in place, they are also flexible enough to bend when the cargo is not of a uniform shape.

DOT requirements specify that all loads should be secured in such a way as to assure that no pieces come loose, endangering those behind. Also, VeeBoards MUST be used if the strap is in any danger of being cut or damaged by the freight.

Other advantages include...

• Lighter than steel
• Last 10 times longer than wood
• Stack efficiently
• Spread the pressure of the strap over 12", 24", 36" or 48"
• Unlike aluminum they will bend, then return to their original shape
• Weather resistant
• Do not crack in freezing temperatures, will not burn your hands in hot temperatures
• Cost efficient
• Made in various colors
• Do little or no damage if they come loose
• Protect the corners of your cargo and help your straps last longer
