SPARK-PROOF HEAVY-DUTY URETHANE RAIL WHEEL CHOCK

sPARk-PROOF Urethane Wheel Chocks are tough enough to block a
tank car, but resilient enough that the car can be pulled over the chock
by a locomotive without derailing. For chocking tank cars and other
freight cars, loading or unloading hazardous materials and used where
a spark from a steel wheel chock could ignite dust or fumes.
No more trying to yank free a steel chock that
is stuck under a wheel. When it’s time to move,
just pull the car over the chock and retrieve
the chock later. Moulded transverse ribbing SPARK
squeegees out water and dirt from rail surface,
to increase holding power. Urethane has great resistance to loads with the ability to FREE
compress to half of its thickness and then spring back to its original shape. Urethane will
not degrade from corrosive materials and most chemicals.

When installed on flush rail the handles are 38mm above the pavement for easy gripping. LOCOMOTIVES & RAIL CAR STOPPING DEVICES
