Bluff Manufacturing launched the Bluff Core Model Portable Yard Ramp, a durable, American-made solution built with all-steel welded construction and rated for 20,000 pounds, providing efficient ground-to-truck and ground-to-building access.
“With the Core Model, our goal was to design a ramp that focuses on what matters most—strength, safety, and long-term durability,” says Kyle Nobile, senior manufacturing engineer at Bluff. “Every detail, from the 36-foot length to the welded steel construction, was engineered to perform day after day in real world conditions. It’s a straightforward solution that operators at all kinds of facilities can trust.”
Key takeaways:
· The ramp’s 36-foot overall length with a 6-foot level-off creates a smooth, controlled incline for safer forklift operation, while the 84-inch-wide deck allows confident maneuverability.
· A double-acting hydraulic pump enables quick height adjustments to accommodate a wide range of trailer heights, improving efficiency across changing workflows.
· Positioning the ramp is simple thanks to a full undercarriage and solid 18-inch rubber tires, allowing teams to move it where it’s needed most. Standard safety features, including 8-inch run-off curbs, safety chains, serrated steel grating, and diamond tread plate—provide reliable traction and operator confidence, even in harsh yard conditions.
· Available with towbar or ramp clamp options, the Bluff Core Model integrates easily with existing equipment, making it an ideal choice for warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities seeking reliable yard access.
