I wonder why no one sell a wheel chock that fits snuggly between two wheels made out of resin or heavy plastic shaped like

If you have access to an injection molding machine and want to make me a pair I will pay you.

Aren’t there a number of different dual axle configurations with varying distances between the two wheels?  It might not be profitable to try make chocks to fit all the different situations.  Maybe some kind of adjustable chock?  Not sure what that would look like.  Mike

The problem as I see it, is being able to remove them if they are a single unit with a snug fit. With individual chocks placed on either side of one tire or behind the rear and in front of the front tire, you can pull forward to remove the rear chock and then back up to pull the front. My wife is the chock person when we are getting ready to hit the road.

 

Chocks are meant to be hammered in place with a rubber mallet to prevent any movement of the trailer.

 

IMO there is zero value to doing what you suggest. You would struggle trying to get a molded piece out. Bad idea. I wouldn't want that even if there was an adjustable mechanism. I want control knowing my chocks are tight to the tire.

Yes, it would have to be adjustable, even for a specific trailer. If the ground is uneven, with a bump in between the two tires, a chock designed to fit snugly on flat pavement wouldn't fit between the tires anymore.

I ran across a guy from Texas with an Elite II that made some out of wood.

 

I came back and made some.  I have been using them this year.
