Truck

During over-the-road (OTR) truck transit it is common for loads to experience movement. An OTR truck properly loaded with ITW Shippers air bags will reduce load movement. The air bags create a retaining wall (aka bulkhead) that literally lock the load in place. Using an ITW Shippers air bag will reduce product damage, maximize protection,and optimize customer satisfaction.

In most cases, an entire load can be effectively braced with one to three air bags- placed properly at the front, middle, and rear of the load.

Since OTR truck loads are not regulated by the Association of American Railroads (AAR), there are no air bag level requirements. For more information on airbags for OTR truck applications, including available sizes, please check out our air bag lines: Big Foot, Zebra, & Gorilla.
