Melvelle Equipment developed the FP-195-AA 70T plinth track tensor to tense rail on plinth track where a curb is in close proximity to the rail. This curb prevents standard tensing and shearing equipment being used.
The innovative FP-195-AA tensor not only solves this special problem, but is light weight, easy to set up and remove, and always grips the rail first time, unlike conventional tensors which can be temperamental in engaging the rail.
