M-Generation

The tension clamps that forgive more

Green tension clamp design with optimized performance & extended life

With the new M-Generation, we now offer even more robust tension clamps to our customers.

  • Despite increasing requirements and higher loads, they will continue to guarantee track safety for the future.
  • The innovative geometry with the spring arms bent outwards allows the use of more elastic systems to further reduce vibrations.
  • Significantly improved carbon footprint thanks to new micro-steel alloy.

Product features for first-class performance

Sustainability​

  • Compact product design: significantly reduced carbon emissions (use of green steel)
  • Properties of the proven material are further optimized by additional micro-alloying (to guarantee fatigue limits/forces)​
  • Low-stress bending & improved hardening during the manufacturing process

Operational safety​

  • High natural frequency: Strengthens the clamp robustness​
  • Innovative geometry with spring arms bent outwards for optimized contact points:​
    • Larger contact area at the rail base​
    • Higher torsional stiffness​
  • Excellent load/deflection properties: maintains the stability under extreme conditions over long periods of time​
  • Compact design: no risk of damage during tamping

Lifecycle costs​

  • Increased robustness of the tension clamp & other fastening components (less wear)​
  • Lower weight & more compact design: lower transport costs

Combined properties in light rail traffic & for high-speed lines

  • M1: for the superstructure in light rail traffic with tight bends & maximum flexibility
  • M3: Successor to the Skl 15 in the high-speed, mainline & light rail traffic sectors
  • M5: reinforced M3 for increased requirements in high-speed traffic (>380 km/h & higher dynamic loads) as well as in heavy-haul applications; 25 % higher toe loads & high rail creep resistance
  • M7: Alternative to the Skl 1, Skl 14 and Skl 21 in the mainline, metro & high-speed ballast track segments
  • M9: Alternative to Skl 14 R, Skl 30, Skl 40 and Skl 42 for heavy freight traffic or routes with extreme requirements
  • M11: New development for applications on ribbed plates (indirect fastening) with optimized geometry and improved properties.
