Weigh Pads
The VWAP axle weigh pads have long been at the forefront of axle weighing and at only 18mm high
are
the slimmest, lightest and most portable weigh pads available. A high strength aluminium alloy
construction ensures impressive strength and robustness.
The weigh pads have the option of two quick release access ramps or interlocking tracking and are highly
portable with carry handles allowing them to be stored and carried to the weighing location when required. All
VWAP models feature detachable cables for maximum portability and quick and easy servicing.
The weigh pads are sealed to protect against water and can be used for static or dynamic axle
weighing. Standard, large and over-size models are available making the VWAP ideal for weighing
all types of vehicles from cars to lorries. Contact Midweigh for your specific weigh pad
requirements.
