Customization guide

Adjustable gauge dimensions to match regional standards (e.g., 762mm for Indian railways or 1067mm for African networks). Rail profiles can be customized for lighter freight or passenger-only use. With corrosion-resistant coatings, these turnouts can be adapted for coastal or high-humidity environments.

Get inspired

With carbon steel’s superior tensile strength, you can ensure seamless operation in rugged terrains. The adjustable gauge design lets you optimize track layouts for tight curves or space-constrained routes. Whether upgrading heritage railways or building new industrial lines, these turnouts provide reliable switching performance.

Supplier's note

  1. Triple-Purpose Steel Alloy: The Pro Model’s carbon steel composition (0.25% carbon content) delivers 20% higher fatigue resistance than standard rails, ideal for high-frequency switching.
  2. Adaptive Gauge Technology: The Advanced Model’s modular design reduces reconfiguration time by 30% compared to traditional turnouts, enabling rapid track adjustments.
  3. Environmental Resilience: The Pro Model’s stainless steel inserts boast 50% better corrosion resistance than galvanized options, extending lifespan in corrosive coastal environments.

For light industrial use, the Base Model suffices. Advanced is optimal for medium-density commuter networks requiring frequent gauge adjustments. Pro is recommended for heavy freight or corrosive environments where longevity and load capacity are critical. Pair the Pro’s stainless steel inserts with reinforced sleepers to create a seamless, low-maintenance switching solution for mining or port operations.
