Heatrex tubular, electric trackswitch heaters have provided maintenance engineers, for nearly 50 years, with a time-tested, cost-efficient and effective method for the removal of snow and ice from switches and for third-rail de-icing, the company says. Tubular heaters are designed to perform efficiently regardless if rails are covered in heavy, wet snow, ice, or light and fluffy flakes. Tubular electric heaters have no moving parts that require maintenance and periodic replacement, just heat applied directly on the switch rails. The company says they are built in accordance with the AAA standards. Diameters include .375, .430, .475, .490 and .625.
