HOLLOW SLEEPER
Standardized hollow steel sleeper for turnouts for installation in switch
devices
09-2022/V 3
Description
The new hollow steel sleeper with main dimensions based on conventional
concrete sleepers, was developed according to the new hollow sleeper standard
EN 16431 and is designed for the replacement of existing sleepers or for
retrofitting. The utilization of the hollow sleeper allows a continuous
sleeper pitch in the turnout. Locking systems, detectors and rail fastenings
can be placed on or inside the sleeper.
Due to the small width (350 mm) fully automated tamping of the whole turnout
can be achieved. Adjustable H-shaped ribbed sole plates guarantee a variety of
different mounting variants, which can be realized according to customer
requirements. Additional covers can be fitted to the hollow sleeper and
guarantee high availability of the entire system even under the worst
conditions.
