RT211 Cuttlefish Rail Turner

Without doubt our most versatile rail handling device, the TR211 Cuttlefish Rail Turner can handle any running rail in any position and is most commonly used in the recovery of long welded rail sections.

The new RT211 Rail Turner from Thomson Engineering is our most versatile rail handling product.

Robustly constructed and with a hydraulic protection through a twin pilot-operated check valve mounted directly onto the jaw cylinder, this grab is easy and safe to use.

All joints are fitted with replaceable bushes and grease nipples for daily lubrication.

The unique feature of the RT211 is its ability to grab, manipulate and turn rails up to 200m in length. This makes it ideal for both rail handling and rail recovery operations.
