CW-3 Rerailer (for Mines)
CW-3 Rerailer right and left throws shown at various angles. This product is available in both right-hand and left-hand throws.
Benefits
- Designed specifically for mine, quarry, and industrial applications
- Used in pairs, right and left
- Special guide groove design permits re-tracking wheels from either or both sides simultaneously
- Steel cam tightens and locks against the rail head as the car wheel tries to push the rerailer
- Works efficiently even with unusually high or badly worn wheel flanges
CW rerailers are sold per unit, but must be used in pairs — a pair consists of one right-hand rerailer (CW-3R) and one left-hand rerailer (CW-3L).
NOTE: CW Rerailers are NOT RECOMMENDED for multiple rerailments. A rerailment may cause stress points which may result in failure.
