RAIL INFRASTRUCTURE COMPANY WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH STAYTITE
Staytite have secured the first approval in the UK for the use of the “Shakeproof Bolt” with a leading rail infrastructure company. The Shakeproof Bolt will be used in conjunction with a standard full nut and washers. The application has resulted in a re-design of the stretcher bar so it can be successfully mated to the track using the shakeproof bolt, washers and full nut, thus eliminating any loosening or creep due to constant vibration. Approval was gained on September 13th with full-scale implementation due in quarter one 2014. This is a huge step forward for both Staytite and the customer regarding rail applications and is very much a “first of its kind”.
