Safelok® Applicator and Remover

One Machine Does Two Jobs. The only Dual Workhead Production / Maintenance machine with the capability of applying and retracting the Pandrol® Safelok I®, Safelok III®, Shur-Lok® and Air Boss® type clips.


Productive
A single operator can simultaneously apply or retract 2 clips on one rail for rail changeout (either side), or 4 clips on both rails for tie replacement or concrete tie maintenance

Precision Control
Unique retraction tool feature uses a scissors type squeeze mechanism to release the clip from the socket, retract the clip and precisely position the clip at the end of the socket in preparation for re-installation.
This exclusive feature prevents clips from being lost and reduces the risk of injury from flying clips.
