FP-186

E-Clip/PR Clip Remover

The FP-186 E-Clip Remover is designed to remove Pandrol ‘E’ and ‘PR’ Clips (elastic fasteners) that are used to fasten the rail to sleepers. The FP-186 can be used on rail sizes from 41kg/m to 68kg/m rail with steel, timber or concrete sleepers.

The 186 removes frozen/weathered clips that have become corroded in position. Under normal conditions, the unit unclips either side of one rail in approximately 2-5 seconds. Under severe conditions (frozen), it unclips in approximately 6-60 seconds. Once the clips are removed, they are left in a parked position behind the sleeper shoulder, ready for reinsertion.

The unit has inherent safety features built into the design. This includes counterbalanced design (user to lift <5kg during operation), emergency stops, hose covers, dual handed operation, guarding and lifting points (mechanical lifts).

Recognised by NSW Mining and Hunter Manufacturing as the safest method of removing Pandrol E and PR railway fasteners. By using the 186 E-Clip Remover, injuries from traditional methods of removing these clips (swinging hammers) have been eliminated. These are (but not limited to):
