The MCT Brattberg system is a multi-purpose seal designed to allow penetration without compromising the security of the construction. Each and every cable and pipe is led through a frame by its own pair of halogen-free module blocks, which are then sealed by use of a compression system.
Cable and pipe protection systems for railways
The railway industry presents challenges for the protection of cables and pipes.
Cable and pipe penetrations exist whenever services are routed through walls, floors and ceilings, In an emergency situation these penetrations could allow the passage of hazards such as fire, smoke and gas.
The unique MCT Brattberg system has been approved by all leading marine and civil authorities as a certified method of sealing such penetrations.

Lycron rubber sealing systems for high resistance
The MCT Brattberg system is based on an idea that is as simple as it is ingenious. The product consists of two components – the frame and packing blocks. The efficient seal is achieved when the packing blocks are pressed together around cables and pipes in the frame with the aid of a compression plate.
The heart of the system is a rubber called Lycron, from which the insert blocks are made. It is extremely resistant to fire but MCT Brattberg is much more than a fire and explosion barrier. In addition to extreme heat and enormous pressure changes, the transits withstand smoke, extreme temperature changes, vibration, sound, chemicals and the effects of ageing.
Protection against EMP, EMI, EMC for cabins, signalling equipment, rolling stock and communication equipment
MCT Brattberg offers external and internal interface protection, or electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) protection. With the growing dependence on computers, communication and control equipment, the problem of sensitivity to interference becomes more apparent, given the vulnerability of modern electronic equipment.
This vulnerability can lead to expensive interruptions in travel, communication and process control.
Fire, smoke and heat resistant cable and pipe seals
The installed seal is now capable of withstanding:
Recently, the renovation of a pumping station in Rotterdam, commissioned by Public Works Rotterdam, has been completed. This pumping station in the Tweede Schansstraat in Rotterdam serves as an interface for the transport of sewage. The facilities for this pumping station were provided
The Langmanbridge is a moveable bridge in Groningen (northern part of the Netherlands), managed by the municipality of Groningen. The existing transit systems, located in the two underground spaces of the bridges, were frequently affected by water leaks. In its search for a solution to this probl
Elektrotechniek Belgium was held for the first time in 2010. This exhibition is actually a spin-off of the highly reputed exhibition Elektrotechniek, held every second year over many years at Jaarbeurs Utrecht, the Netherlands. The exhibition in Belgium took place on 17-19 November and was held
The Valhall complex consists of five separate steel bridge linked platforms for: quarters, drilling, wellheads, production and water injection respectively. In addition the field has two unmanned flank platforms, one in the south and one in the north, both around 6km from the field centre and the
We are pleased to announce that MCT Brattberg together with its agent in Italy, Piemme Broker, are benefitting from increased business in the country. So much that Piemme Broker has recently moved to larger premises in response to the increased growth. The new business address in Italy
MCT Brattberg's WinRG Plan cable transit planning software for frames with square corners has been available for a long time. However, what is new is that this program now includes software for planning where to fit the correct insert blocks into RGSC transit frames. RGSC is a frame with rounded
