Safelok–FP-171

The FP-171 Safelok Clipper is designed to remove and install Safelok I fasteners that are used to retain the rail to sleepers. The FP-171 can be used on rail sizes from 41kg/m to 68kg/m using traditional concrete sleepers.

The workhead removes and installs Safelok I clips using hydraulic force rather than operator exertion. This significantly improves efficiency and eliminates manual handling hazards associated with installing and removing Safelok clips.

By using the FP-171, injuries from traditional methods of removing these clips (Hand Tools) have been eliminated.
