| Pandrol Rail Fastenings | ||
The PANDROL FASTCLIP rail fastening is a pre-assembled system, developed in response to the growing need for fast, efficient track installation and reduced maintenance costs. |
PANDROL VIPA has been developed to attenuate vibration and secondary noise through a two-part resilient pad system. |
FASTCLIP FD is a simplified system for railways operating low or medium density operations, on rail sections of 50kg or below and at speeds generally less than 120km/hr. |
VANGUARD is a revolutionary new way of supporting rail in slab, viaduct and tunnel applications. |
PANDROL's e-PLUS utilises the in 'e' clip assemblies and the two-piece insulator concept developed for FASTCLIP. |
|
| PLASTWIL | ||
The SB-W1 elastic rail-fastening system consists of an SB3/3 cast iron anchor, SB4 spring clip for rails, WKW60 electro-insulating hold-down pad, PWE shaped cushion, concrete sleeper and a rail. |
The new PWE cushion is characterised by its high absorption of dynamic loads (over 50%) and resistance to repeated loads; this is related to the change of static and dynamic rigidity. |
An electro-insulating pad used to fix a rail to a sleeper. |
The dowel – an element of a screw joint fixing a rail to a sleeper. |
Our systems may be used in ballast track structure on pre-tensioned prestressed concrete sleepers of all types, and in tracks of all categories. |

| Sika | ||
In Erfurt, Germany continuous undersealing of rails with Icosit® KC 340 reduced vibration by 40%. |
In 1986, the baseplates of the lawn track in Fellbach, Germany were supported by Icosit® KC 330, resulting in an extremely quiet and aesthetically attractive system. |
The baseplates of the crossover of the Heathrow Express in London were undersealed with Icosit® KC 330 in situ for maximum precision and riding comfort. |
In Memphis, Tennessee, the very basic suspension of heritage trolleys necessitated maximum vibration absorption through an embedded rail design with Icosit® KC 330. |
In Tuen Mun, Hongkong, the light rail vehicles have run on vibration-absorbing Icosit® KC 330 since 1987. |
