ZICO
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about ZICO from 3G Electric.
What is the maximum vehicle weight capacity for ZICO aluminum wheel chocks?
ZICO aluminum wheel chocks are available with different weight capacities. For example, the SAC-44-E model is rated for vehicles up to 50,000 lb, while the AC-1 model supports up to 10,000 lb. The capacity depends on the specific model and its intended application. These chocks are designed to provide stable restraint for vehicles during loading, unloading, or parking. When selecting a chock, consider the vehicle's gross weight and wheel diameter to ensure proper fit and performance. ZICO chocks are constructed from lightweight, cold-resistant aluminum, making them suitable for outdoor use in low-temperature environments.
Are ZICO wheel chock holders compatible with multiple chock models?
ZICO wheel chock holders are designed for specific chock models. For instance, the QCH-32-H holder is compatible with the AC-32 chock (SKU 49H699), and the SQCH-44-H holder fits the SAC-44-E chock (SKU 49H693). The QCH-1 holder is intended for the AC-1 chock (SKU 49H702). Each holder is made from aluminum with a gray finish and provides a secure storage solution for the corresponding chock when not in use. Compatibility is determined by the chock's dimensions and mounting configuration. Refer to the holder's specifications to ensure a proper match with your existing ZICO chocks.
What are the dimensions and load ratings of the ZICO AC-32 wheel chock?
The ZICO AC-32 wheel chock (SKU 49H699) is rated for vehicles up to 50,000 lb and accommodates wheel diameters up to 32 inches. It has an overall width of 8 inches and features built-in handles for easy handling. The chock is made from lightweight, cold-resistant aluminum, suitable for outdoor use in low-temperature environments. Its design allows for quick placement and removal, and it can be stored in the compatible QCH-32-H holder (SKU 49H701) when not in use. This model is commonly used in loading dock and vehicle restraint applications where a balance of high weight capacity and manageable size is required.
What tools can ZICO spring clips hold on pegboard?
ZICO spring clips for round-hole pegboard are designed to secure tools of specific diameters. The CL 1.25 model (SKU 49H709) holds tools up to 1-1/4 inches in diameter, while the CL.75 model (SKU 49H707) accommodates tools with a 3/4 inch diameter. Both clips are made from steel with a black PVC coating and feature a screw-in locking system for surface mounting on pegboard with 9/64 inch holes and 1/16 inch hole spacing. These clips provide organized storage for tools and equipment in workshops, maintenance areas, and industrial settings. The PVC coating helps protect tools from scratches and corrosion.
Are ZICO wheel chocks suitable for cold environments?
Yes, many ZICO wheel chocks are constructed from cold-resistant aluminum, making them suitable for use in low-temperature environments. This includes models such as the SAC-44-E (SKU 49H693), AC-32 (SKU 49H699), and AC-1 (SKU 49H702). The aluminum material maintains its strength and does not become brittle in cold conditions, unlike some other materials. These chocks are often used in outdoor loading docks, cold storage facilities, and other applications where temperature extremes are a concern. The cold-resistant properties ensure reliable performance and durability in challenging climates.
What is the difference between the ZICO SAC-44-E and AC-32 wheel chocks?
The ZICO SAC-44-E (SKU 49H693) and AC-32 (SKU 49H699) are both aluminum wheel chocks rated for vehicles up to 50,000 lb, but they differ in maximum compatible wheel diameter and handle design. The SAC-44-E accommodates wheel diameters up to 44 inches and features an extended handle for easier placement, with an overall height of 6 inches. The AC-32 fits wheel diameters up to 32 inches and has built-in handles, with an overall width of 8 inches. Both are cold-resistant and suitable for outdoor use. The choice between them depends on the wheel size of the vehicles being restrained and the preferred handle type for the application.
