Rail Road Components

Overview

Railroad Track Components by HEIL

At HEIL, we are committed to manufacturing high-quality railroad track components that meet the highest standards for performance, durability, and safety. Our products are designed to ensure seamless rail operations, minimizing maintenance while enhancing rail efficiency and longevity.

Key Features:

Unmatched Durability:

Manufactured with special manganese steel, our crossings harden over time through a work-hardening process, making them highly resistant to wear.

Reduced Maintenance:

HEIL’s crossings and track components require minimal maintenance, ensuring reduced operational costs and long-term reliability.

Enhanced Safety:

Our components improve the overall safety and efficiency of rail networks, reducing the risk of failure and supporting smooth operations.

Product Range:

CMS/WCMS Crossings

HEIL provides Cast Manganese Steel (CMS) and Weldable CMS crossings for high performance and durability in demanding railway systems. These crossings are known for their robustness and long-term reliability, ensuring minimal maintenance needs and enhanced safety across the railway network.

Types:

  • 1 in 8½ in 52 Kg & 60 Kg
  • 1 in 9 in 52 Kg & 60 Kg
  • 1 in 10 in 52 Kg & 60 Kg
  • 1 in 12 in 52 Kg & 60 Kg
  • 1 in 16 in 52 Kg & 60 Kg

Obtuse Crossings

Our obtuse crossings are engineered for complex railway junctions, ensuring precision, safety, and efficient train passage through intricate track layouts. Designed for high durability, these crossings maintain track integrity even under heavy traffic conditions.

Diamond Crossings

HEIL’s diamond crossings are designed to ensure smooth rail transitions at complex intersections where two rail lines cross. Our flexible and high-quality construction minimizes the risks associated with rail intersections, improving both safety and operational reliability.

Scissor Crossover Crossings

HEIL’s Scissor Crossover Crossings are designed for seamless transitions in double-track operations. These robust components ensure reliability, smoothness, and efficiency in complex track arrangements.

Manganese Steel Crossings

Our durable manganese steel crossings provide smooth rail transitions while reducing wear, contributing to the longevity and performance of the rail infrastructure. Available in multiple sizes, these crossings meet the needs of diverse rail systems.

Thick Web Switches (TWS)

Designed for heavier rail sections, HEIL’s Thick Web Switches (TWS) come with advanced point machines to accommodate higher speeds. These switches offer independent switch locking and improved clearance, enhancing both operational efficiency and safety.

Improved Switch Expansion Joint (ISEJ)

HEIL’s Improved Switch Expansion Joints (ISEJ) are designed to handle thermal expansion and contraction, reducing stress on rail infrastructure. Available in single-gap and double-gap designs, they ensure smooth transitions and lower maintenance costs across different track configurations.

Thick Web Switch Expansion Joint (TWSEJ)

A robust solution combining the features of thick web switches and expansion joints, HEIL’s Thick Web Switch Expansion Joints (TWSEJ) are designed for heavy-duty rail applications. These components provide enhanced stability and track longevity in high-traffic rail environments.

Track Geometry

HEIL designs permanent way components with precise track geometry in mind, ensuring that the gauge remains constant, rails on straight tracks are level, and rails on curved tracks are superelevated correctly for optimal train performance and safety.

Advanced Components

In line with international rail advancements, HEIL manufactures Canted Turnouts, improving the working capacity and safety of railways, especially for high-speed operations. These turnouts are designed to meet the demands of modern railway systems and contribute to safer, more efficient rail operations.
