HD Ramps Aluminum Skid Seat Attaching Bracket for Pin-End Ramps 97"

Aluminum Ramp Pin Seat — 97" Deck-Mounted Attaching Bracket, 97" of Bearing

A pin-end ramp needs something to pin to. Without a seat on the deck, the ramp is just leaning on the edge and the first machine that climbs it finds out.

This bracket bolts to the trailer and gives the ramp a fixed seat. It is 97" long, 4" wide and 3" tall, weighs 40 lbs, and is made from premium aluminum.

Why Choose This Aluminum Skid Seat Bracket

It is the fixed seat a pin-end ramp needs, with 97" of bearing along the deck edge.

• Fixed seat for pin-end ramps — the ramp locks to the deck instead of resting against it.
• 97" of bearing spreads the ramp load along the deck edge rather than concentrating it.
• Aluminum construction at 40 lbs.
• Made in the USA and sized to standard pin-end ramp spacing.

Made For

Built for trailers and decks running pin-end loading ramps.

• Step deck and flatbed carriers

• Trailer manufacturers and upfitters
• Rental fleets loading compact machines
• Fleet shops retrofitting existing decks

Features

• 97" length — the bearing width along the deck edge.
• 4" x 3" section — the bracket profile, kept low so it does not foul the deck.
• 40 lbs — light enough to fit without help.
• Aluminum construction — aluminum keeps weight off a trailer that already has a payload number.
• Pin-end ramp compatible — matched to standard pin-end ramp spacing.
• Bolt-on fitting — no welding required to fit it to the deck.
• Made in the USA — built in an American plant.
• Sold individually — buy the count your ramp configuration calls for.

What a Skid Seat Does

Pin-end ramps do not hook over a rail. They pin into a seat, which means the seat is the whole connection between the ramp and the trailer.

This bracket gives 97" of bearing along the deck edge. That spreads the load from the ramp across the structure rather than driving it into one point.

Once it is fitted, the ramp goes on the same way every time — no eyeballing the edge and no hoping the ramp stays where it was set.

Aluminum and Why

Aluminum keeps the fitted weight down. On a trailer with a payload number to respect, brackets fitted permanently to the deck are weight you carry on every load, empty or full.

The bracket weighs 40 lbs and measures 97" x 4" x 3".

It bolts on. Nothing about fitting it requires a welder or takes the trailer out of service for a day.
