DOCK SEAL Abstract of the Disclosure A dock seal for providing a seal between the end of a truck body and a loading dock. The dock seal includes a pair of resilient pads mounted on the dock alongside a doorway in the dock. The outer face of each pad facing away from the dock has a generally L- shaped configuration including a first surface that extends at an acute angle with respect to the plane of the dock and a shorter second surface that is located inwardly of the first surface and extends at an angle of about 90° with respect to the first surface. As a truck backs toward the loading dock, the end of the truck body will engage the first surface of the pad, compressing the pad and deflecting the first surface into engagement with the side wall of the truck body and correspondingly moving the second surface of the pad into engagement with the end of the truck body to seal the gap between the end of the truck body and an openly swung truck body door.
