Enerpac: RP-Series Hydraulic Rail Pullers

Enerpac

Enerpac says its RP-series hydraulic rail pullers are quick set-up, over-the-rail tools in capacities up to 120 tons. Utilizing the low-pressure hydraulic PTO on the truck, set the RP into position, connect the PTO lines and start the pull. The compact, one-piece steel design requires no disassembly for transport or storage, and it weighs almost 400 pounds less than competitive alternatives, the company says. It is designed to provide ample clearance for weld equipment, weld shears and rail grinders. Operator controls are positioned safely away from the work area, the company says, adding that a load lock valve prevents pressure loss during welding, and a pressure bleed valve eliminates system lock-up.
