Crane Rail Pads
Get Price Quote
A crane rail pad is essential in reducing shock and vibration in a rail system. The crane rail pad incorporates a bonded steel strip which is encapsulated in the synthetic elastomer. Steel reinforced crane rail pad is for heavy duty crane applications. The reinforcement acts as a diaphragm and gives the pad lateral stiffness, preventing it from deflecting under the side thrust of the rail, regardless of wheel load and loss of friction from oil or grease.
Features
Load distribution over a larger surface
Elimination of load concentrations and the resultant fatigue stresses
Centering of loads on the supporting element
Absorption of uneven contact surfaces between rail and support
Reduces noise and structure-borne vibration
Sealing between the bottom of the rail and the top of the support
Reduces rail wear and fatigue stresses
Reduces crane runway maintenance
Reduces stress in the runway structure and the crane
Prevention of fretting corrosion between the rail and the supporting nominal steelwork.
Protects the crane mechanism and increases wheel, bearing and axle life
is manufactured with stress and wear resistant synthetic elastomer;
fully incorporates a special steel plate which makes the pad transversally rigid, consequently, even in the most extreme operating conditions, the pad does not misplace laterally
