Flexible Shaft Grinder MFB/MFR

The MFB Flexible Shaft Grinder on a wheelbarrow frame and the MFR Flexible Shaft Grinder on a track-cart enables the efficient completion of all types of grinding operations. Like all Pandrol grinding equipment, it has been developed to maximise the life of the track across all rail heads and profiles.

The wheelbarrow frame, with its all-terrain design, means that one person can comfortably transport and use the grinding unit. Switches on the machine’s case and handle start up the grinder and its petrol engine, which is powerful enough for heavy-duty grinding tasks.
