Advantages of using Straight Stone Grinders

Bespoke grinding

The range of Straight Stone Grinders allow for clockwise or counter-clockwise grinding, with an on/off valve or safety trigger.

Precise tools

The grinders are powerful for their size, enabling efficient, precise grinding on rail.

Versatile design

One tool can be used for a range of applications, including field welds, frogs and switch points.

Long life

The grinders are extremely robust, with a strong aluminium housing and rub pads that extend their life and reduce cost.

Reduced maintenance

Sealed bearings reduce the need for maintenance.

Ergonomic features

The Straight Stone Grinders have rigid handles, heat isolation from hand holds, and are both light weight and compact in size.

Technical features of Straight Stone Grinders

Powerful flow

All of the Straight Stone Grinders operate at 10 gpm (38 lpm), providing the power for strategic grinding in all parts of the rail.

Clockwise and counter-clockwise

The grinders are available with either clockwise rotation (models 04600 and 04650) or counter-clockwise rotation (models 04700 and 04750).

On/off valve or safety trigger

The grinders are available with either an on/off valve (models 04600 and 04650) or an engineered safety trigger (models 04700 and 04750).

Ergonomic handle design

The Straight Stone Grinders have strong, rigid handles that are isolated from hydraulic hoses to protect operators’ hands from the heat of the hydraulic flow.

Rub pads

Rub pads are fitted to either side of the stone guard, decreasing wear when grinding the ball of rail.

Sealed bearings

The tools’ sealed bearings are robust and protected from dirt.
