Ra'alloy Aluminium Ramps have been proved a market leader over the last
25 years. Other companies have tried to match the superb engineering
behind our ramps but have failed.
The engineering in our ramps has been tested for some 25 years, in
particular the event, staging, lighting and sound industry's where the
ramps need to be manufactured to withstand substantial mis-use.
Companies have been using the same Ra'alloy Ramps for upwards of 20
years and they are still as strong as the day they purchased them.
Some companies claim their ramps are lighter - Ra'alloy truck ramps
are manufactured to just the correct weight to eliminate the ramp
bouncing and falling off when in use, while at the same time
lightweight enough for easy handling. Less aluminium also means a less
substantial floor which will bend.

Aluminium Construction
Our portable truck ramps offer the ultimate in strength and rigidity.
Manufactured from construction grade
aluminium and designed to a
standard that offers resistance to damage from the most robust use,
while giving the user the best possible safety protection. The diagram
below gives an idea of just some of the features that make our ramps
the worlds No.1.
Anti Slip Floor
Ra`alloy Ramps anti slip flooring is virtually everlasting. Exclusive
to Ra`alloy the floor has ribs that run across the width of the ramp
for full forward walking traction and then the ribs are serrated to
give full sideways
traction. By incorporating our floor system into the
ramps we can guarantee that the surface remains anti slip in most
weather conditions, including snow and ice.
Side Stringer Details
Our standard duty truck ramps have a 10 cm deep side stringer which the
flooring sits approximately 5 cm below the top leaving a side rim which
helps prevent accidental walk off. The thickness of the Stringers is
4.5 cm and this should be remembered when ordering as the size listed
on or Stock Sizes table below is the maximum outside width and not the
treadway.
The neck of the Stringer at the Rest On end is shaped to give maximum
thickness at the point were the ythe ramp meets the truck which is
where most or the load is taken. This ensures that that the ramp will
not break and fall from ther truck as with other manufacturers ramps
where there is only a single aluminium extrusion fixed to the front of
the ramp, with no side Stringer support.
(please click both pictures below for detail)
Fixing - Rest On
Our Rest On connection offers the ultimate in design safety and
practibility. The Stringer side sections continue to the end of the
ramp and taper down. This is a great guide when unloading and wheeling
or walking onto the ramp from the truck bed at times when visability is
poor, such as wide equipment being unloaded. A Ram Bar is fixed to the
underside and this locates against the rear of the truck or the buffer.
Our Rest on end is designed to reach across most buffers and crash bars
and land straight on the truck bed. Added security is given by a tie
bar located below the ramp which can have strapping attached and tied
to the rear of the truck
Hook On
Our Hook On top requires two 13 mm holes to be drilled into the edge of
the truck. The ramp downs then simply drop into the holes. Hook On
connection is restricted to use in the holes position unless multi
holes are drilled
Load Testing
Ra`alloy Ramps priority's are user safety combined with immense
strength and so all of our ramps are manufactured within the limits of
independently load tested ramps. Ra`alloy were the first ramp
manufacture
r to introduce such testing as a standard and we chose
Lloyds British Load Testing Ltd who are an independent testing body for
many insurance companies. Our 500 cm long amps have a Safe Working Load
of 750 kgs and this is increased as the ramp gets shorter.
Low Ground Clearance Machines
Our standard ramps are manufactured to suit an approximate incline of 18 degrees,
which is great for standard Flight Cases and Meat Racks etc. Should the
equipment you are loading have a ground clearance of 7.5 cm (3") or
less with a long wheelbase then please contact us to discuss your
requirement and we can test that your equipment will not ground out on
our in - house model and advise the most suitable ramp.
