Description
This moulded rubber hose and cable protector ramp provides a robust, highly visible solution for routing hoses and electrical cables safely across vehicle or pedestrian routes. Manufactured from heavy-duty rubber, it creates a gentle ramped crossing that helps prevent damage to hoses and cables while reducing the risk of trips and accidents.
Designed for use in warehouses, workshops, construction sites, events and temporary works areas, this ramp can be quickly deployed wherever services need to cross traffic lanes. Its compact 980 x 290 x 135 mm footprint makes it easy to handle and reposition, while the durable construction is suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments.
Product Features
- Overall size: 980 x 290 x 135 mm for compact yet effective cable and hose protection.
- Moulded from heavy-duty rubber for excellent impact and abrasion resistance.
- Integrated ramped profile to allow vehicles, trolleys and pedestrians to pass smoothly over cables and hoses.
- Suitable for protecting hoses and electrical cables from traffic and footfall.
- Non-metallic construction reduces noise and protects underlying surfaces.

- Construction and maintenance sites where temporary services cross access roads.
- Workshops and garages for protecting air, water or oil hoses in service bays.
- Events, exhibitions and temporary installations to manage power and audio-visual cabling.
- Facilities management in commercial buildings and public spaces to improve cable safety.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can this ramp be used outdoors in all weather conditions?
Yes. The moulded rubber construction is suitable for outdoor use and can withstand typical weather conditions. However, as with any ramp, care should be taken in icy or very wet conditions, and regular inspection is recommended to ensure safe use.
Is the ramp suitable for vehicle traffic as well as pedestrians?
The ramp is designed with a ramped profile to allow light vehicles, trolleys and pedestrians to pass over protected hoses and cables. Always check that the weight and tyre loading in your application are appropriate for this type of rubber ramp and ensure hoses and cables are correctly positioned.
Does the ramp need to be fixed to the ground?
In many applications the weight and grip of the rubber provide sufficient stability without fixing. On smooth or sloping surfaces, or in areas with frequent heavy traffic, additional measures such as positioning against a stop or using suitable fixings or barriers may be advisable to prevent movement.
