The Permaquip tensor is designed to be used in sets or half sets to adjust the gap between rail ends for rail stressing, rail welding, repairing rail failures, and installing insulated joints.
Based on the previous Permaquip tensor, the new tensor has utilised the majority of the design, but improvements have been made to aid ergonomic handling. New handles have been fitted to prevent slipping and provide dedicated hand positions for the cylinder and clamps. The handles can also be utilised in conjunction with the Lifting / Carrying Tongs for a safer offset operation.
Non-slip type clamps enable the gap to be maintained accurately in order to facilitate a stress-free weld.
The tensor is powder-coated yellow for high visibility when on track.
Numerous accessories, such as lifting / carrying tongs, side rollers, and under rail rollers are available.
Designed to be used in conjunction with the Permaquip Stressor Power Pack, available in both Petrol and Electric options.
