Oleo International engineering director Peter Lee said: “We’ve spent many years manufacturing buffers and deformation tubes for rail, which we have had to pass onto a third-party to be incorporated into couplers.
“By manufacturing the coupler ourselves, we keep the entire project in house and can exercise full control over the quality and testing of the product.
“We also take a modular approach to the new design, which means we can pass on reduced costs, improved performance and shorter lead times to customers.”
The new couplers have been designed, developed and produced in the UK.

“This confirms our confidence in the range and Oleo’s ability to move ahead, innovate and continually strive to meet the fast-moving requirements that are placed upon our sector, reinforcing our commitment to safety and performance.”
