Front and intermediate gaiters provide a flexible membrane that does not restrict the movement of the couplers. This coupler protection provides a barrier against snow, ice and dust build-up on the coupler pivot and other sensitive parts.
The gaiters are made from silicone laminates and high-quality silicone/aramid laminates. These materials provide outstanding protection against heat and fire, confirmed by the certification according to the European standard EN 45545 R7 HL2 for fire safety in rail vehicles.
Product Advantages
- Protect couplers from snow, dirt, ice and sand and thereby increase the service capability of the coupler and other coupler box components.
- Seamless maintenance of the couplers without dismounting all systems.
- Bolt on style design can work with existing coupler from all manufacturers.
