Railpads and Base Plates
The many railpads and baseplates available feature characteristics that vary according to applicative and structural requirements. Profiles are optimised by simulation and may be produced either in compact or expanded materials.
Rail Acoustic Protection
Special acoustic protection applied to rails can result in a reduction of 4 to 5 decibels.
Rail Cushions
Cushions made of special rubber agglomerates may be very useful for acoustic protection. A special version is also available to avoid stray current propagation.
Under-Ballast
The under-ballast slabs are made of rubber agglomerates mixed with polyurethane especially studied for railroad constructions; they can also be delivered with a fabric-finished or compact rubber surface.
