Crane Rail Pads (Rail Pads)
The Soft-Mount Crane Rail Pad Solution for Crane Runways
For over 40 years GANTREX® has been providing engineered, adjustable soft-mount crane rail solutions for all types of crane tracks and rail-mounted equipment runways.
Crane rail pad is essential in reducing shock and vibration in a rail system.
GANTREX® MK6 rail pad is used for continuously supported systems and GANTREX® MK2 for discontinuous or intermittently supported runways. GANTREX® also produces MK4 pad and MK0 pad for light rail applications on continuous support.
| Together with GANTREX® clips, rail pad offers all the advantages of a comprehensive soft-mounting solution. |

The pad laid under the rail ensures:
- Load distribution over a larger surface
- Elimination of load concentrations and the resultant fatigue stresses
- Centering of loads on the supporting element
- Absorption of uneven contact surfaces between rail and support
- Reduction of noise and vibrations
- Sealing between the bottom of the rail and the top of the support
- Reduction of wear of the rail and its support
