Another Year, Another Railroad Maintenance Season
The transition from winter season into production season requires a lot of hard work and dedication from maintenance crews. Ties undergo their notorious freeze-thaw cycle, turning soft and loosening spikes from their holes. Railroad grade crossings fall victim to the freeze-thaw cycle as well by the expansion and cracking of road surfaces, only made worse by salt. Quick solutions to these issues are imperative so little to no production time is lost.
- Spikefast ES-50 -
Rather than replacing the entire tie after winter, Spikefast ES-50 is the ideal tie remediation method. It is a two-part, non-foam, polyurethane resin designed to plug holes and splits in wood ties by deeply penetrating cracks, voids and crevices. Spikefast sets up quickly, allowing spikes to be anchored just 10 minutes after application, and has a 20% greater pullout resistance than new hardwood.
- Why Choose Spikefast ES-50 -
|
• Ready to be spiked 10 minutes after application |
• 20% greater pullout resistance than new hardwood |
|
• Apply in heavy rain or humidity, and extreme temperatures (-40°F to 180°F)
|
• Free-flowing material deeply penetrates wood cracks and crevices, & prevents future tie rot |
|
• Displaces standing water
|
• Proven to outperform traditional methods in both pullout and lateral resistance
