Train jacks are heavy-duty ratchet devices used to lift train rails. This allows expert teams of railway engineers to carry out essential maintenance and repair work. Jacks are also a key piece of equipment during outages. They provide stability and incremental life, without compromising convenience and safety.
Maximise your lifting power. Our railway track jack devices are designed with our decades-old wisdom of rail technology. We constantly review and upgrade our equipment designs to ensure we deliver an optimised experience, inspired by customer feedback. Pandrol railway jacks are available in three varieties – hydraulic, mechanical, and obstructionless:
Pandrol’s railway lifting jacks are designed to be compact and portable for ease of use. Fewer parts and high-quality material construction mean you’ll rarely need to maintain, repair, or replace your railroad track jack equipment.
Pandrol train jacks are the product of years of innovation and industry experience, both on and off the track. Our rail jack devices are designed and forged for guaranteed durability and high performance over the years, thanks to the expertise of our designers and engineers.
Save time and resources while still ensuring essential repairs, replacements, and maintenance are completed promptly. Our lifting jacks for trains have stood the test of time and have been used in varied and challenging railway settings around the world.
Pandrol’s lifting jacks for trains have a strong supporting structure, which holds the weight of the rail on both the foot and head of the jack. This provides maximum stability so the operator can complete their task with confidence.
The Pandrol hydraulic jack device is equipped with a lowering valve and load limiter for precision. Our mechanical option has a mechanical locking system and the option of a specialised support shoe to reduce slippage risk. If you prefer an obstructionless jack, you can rely on a quick-release spring for disengagement in emergencies.
Choose equipment that not only delivers perfect results but is satisfying to operate. Pandrol railway jacks are designed for optimal weight distribution, stable operation, and increased portability.
Railroad jacks come in different weights for different rail settings and uses. Pandrol hydraulic jacks start from 25kg and go up to 109kg, while our mechanical jacks range from 20 to 47kg. The obstructionless jacks we offer are lighter, at 19kg.
A toe jack is also known as a lifting jack or floor jack. It is commonly used for lowering machines for handling purposes. It is suitable for heavy duty industrial use, as well as in the rail industry. Toe jacks are usually hydraulic.
There are three types of railway jack – mechanical, hydraulic, and obstructionless. Pandrol offer all three. Please make an enquiry and a member of our expert team will be in touch to advise which type of jack would best suit your needs.
A telescopic frame makes the Sleeper Layers compact and safe to operate. A unique, patented linkage system ensures that the centre of gravity does not change during sleeper spreading.
The Auto Master enables clipping to take place automatically, as part of a seamless process. With six to eight fewer people required on track to perform the operation, the machine has a major impact on site safety.
Pandrol’s SB40 and SB60 Sleeper Replacers are attachments designed to replace sleepers safely and efficiently.
Capable of handling both sleepers and rail, the Sleeper Grabber improves installation efficiency and sleeper reuse.
Pandrol’s rail tongs are used to install and maintain continuous welded rail (CWR). The rail tongs clip automatically onto the rail being moved and are designed to be fastened to all types of hauling and rail removal equipment.
Once lifted, the rail can be moved with very low friction for the purposes of rail stressing. The resultant stress distribution is, therefore, optimised.
