Build a Floating Dock You Can Trust
As the ultimate source of marina supplies, we know what boat owners are looking for when it comes to building a dock. For thirty years, Dock Boxes Unlimited has provided dock floats of the highest quality. Whether you’re building a new dock or expanding an existing structure, you’ll find reliable dock flotation solutions designed for long-term performance.
Versatile Dock Framework Attachment
When creating a boat dock that suits your unique preferences, our dock floats are designed to accommodate a diverse range of decking materials. They can handle various decking materials like wood, steel, or aluminum, giving you the flexibility to choose the look you want.
Standard dock floats typically have a .150 nominal wall thickness, but we can assist you in selecting the perfect marine float for your marina. Our professional dock builders provide personalized service, guiding you through the customization process and ensuring your needs are met from purchase to post-installation. Contact us for one-on-one support for your floating dock needs.
Durable One-Piece Rotationally Molded Design
Our dock float drums are tough and built to last, thanks to their one-piece design. Designed with rotationally molded components that are formed into one solid part, our dock floats boast a seamless structure, eliminating any seams that could lead to separation or leakage.
The EPS foam filling within each individual dock float is achieved by way of our automated foaming technique. Each dock float consists of the highest-quality polyethylene, made out of food-grade, fully recyclable materials that will not contaminate local waterways.
Weather-Resistant & UV-Resistant Outer Shell
In the face of nature’s challenges, our dock floats stand strong with a weather-resistant and UV-resistant outer shell. Constructed from linear virgin polyethylene resin, fortified with UV ray inhibitors and carbon black pigment, this heavy-duty shell offers unparalleled protection against the elements. From extreme weather conditions to the corrosive effects of saltwater, oils, pollutants, and debris, our dock float drums are equipped to endure it all.
Unmatched Quality. Proven Durability.
Dock Equipment for Every Boat Dock
Whether it’s finding the perfect dock supply product or equipping an entire marina facility, Dock Boxes Unlimited has the solutions you need.
Dock Floats FAQs
Are your dock floats suitable for saltwater and ocean marinas?
Yes. The shell is molded from linear virgin polyethylene reinforced with UV inhibitors and carbon black pigment, so it resists saltwater corrosion, sun, oils, and pollutants. The seamless one-piece body has no joints to split or seams to leak, which is exactly what open-water and coastal marina conditions demand. The same dock float performs equally well on a freshwater lake.
How much weight can a dock float support?
Each marine float carries its own buoyancy rating in pounds, the weight it holds before sitting below the waterline, and those ratings span a wide range across our lineup, from roughly 290 lbs on the smallest drums to over 5,800 lbs on the largest. You don’t rely on a single float, though: flotation is distributed across many drums beneath the frame, so the dock’s total capacity is the sum of every float supporting it.
What materials are Dock Boxes Unlimited dock floats made from?
The drum consists of a robust linear virgin polyethylene outer body that is UV protected by being dyed with UV inhibitors and carbon black pigment. The shell is made via rotational molding and comes as a single-piece construction, and is of food-grade quality, non-contaminating to the water, and 100% recyclable at the end of its long service life.
Can dock floats be added to an existing dock framework?
Certainly, molded-in mounting channels and thick 2″-flanges mount directly to wood, steel, or aluminum dock structures. This means that our docks can be equally effective on new and existing structures. In cases where existing boat docks have sunk due to loss of flotation, additional or replacement flotation units will raise the dock.
Where can I buy dock floats for my marina or lake dock?
Right here. Dock Boxes Unlimited has the best dock floats for sale in over 70 sizes online, shipping from four U.S. warehouses for the largest inventory and fastest lead times in the industry. For a marina build or any bulk order, add the sizes you need to an estimate request, and our team will return volume pricing built around your project.
