Choosing the Correct Shoring Bar Length
The shoring bar should span securely between the internal tracking systems fitted to both sides of the vehicle. Measurement should be taken from the face of one track to the face of the opposite track to ensure safe engagement within the load bar cups.
For non-standard trailer widths, simply specify your required length (in millimetres) when ordering and we will manufacture your bar to your exact requirements.
