Crane Rail Pads

Published on : Tuesday 30-11--0001

These are manufactured from synthetic elastomer and are acknowledged for their resistance to wear, shear and crushing. The finished pads are an essential element of the rail track, which are laid between the rail and their support system. Together with Gantrex clips, these manufactured pads offer several advantages of a comprehensive soft mounting solution such as: load distribution over a larger surface; absorption of uneven contact surfaces between rail and support; reduction of noise and vibration; and reduction of wear of the rail and its support. Moreover, these pads facilitate reduction in transfer of stress to the support of up to at least 25% as per DIN 4132 and CTICM recommendations.

The company offers these pads in different models, viz., Gantrex pads, Gantrex MK3 and Gantrex MK6. These pads are tested for their efficiency and fatigue resistance at the “Ruhr University, if specified by clients. Gantrex India is a 100% subsidiary of Gantry SA, Belgium, an ISO certified organisation engaged in manufacturing, supplying and installation of crane rail fasteners and crane rail components for applications in gantry and overhead cranes.
