DESIGN FEATURES 

Duraset Sleepers are manufactured with 60MPa concrete, reinforced with high tensile prestressed wires. This enables the sleeper to perform even under the most adverse railtrack conditions

The 1:20 built-in cant provides proper rail-to-wheel contact, ensuring optimum performance

Cast-in shoulders ensure consistent, accurate track gauge

Pandrol elastic rail fastening system provides a reliable clamping force

High sleeper mass provides greater track stability

Re-usable due to its long life span

Gauge widening facility reduces wear on wheels and rails

Our Quality Management System is ISO 9001:2000 certified

THE MINECLIP SYSTEM

Low profile shoulder reduces derailment damage

10-tonne system pad has an upstand that replaces the loose GPI

Rotate pads to achieve gauge widening

Pads on 5- and 10-tonne systems eliminates rail seat abrasion and is necessary to maintain the clamping force

Pre-assembled and delivered as a captive system

Less waste through loss of loose components

Easy to install

WHY DO WORLD CLASS MINES ONLY USE DURASET CONCRETE SLEEPERS?

Rolling stock remains on the track

Reduced rail track maintenance

Improved rolling stock efficiencies

Reduced maintenance on rolling stock

Improved tramming safety

Improved flow of men, material and rock

Improved bottom line profitability

Our Quality Management System is ISO 9001 :2000 certified

HOW DO DURASET CONCRETE SLEEPERS BENEFIT WORLD CLASS MINES? 

Cast-in steel shoulders ensure a constant, fixed gauge, reducing the chances of a derailment

Pandrol spring steel clip fastenings offer a constant, fixed clamping force

High sleeper mass maintains track geometry – essential for smooth rides and low rolling stock maintenance

Built-in 1:20 cant provides excellent wheel to rail contact

Duraset concrete sleepers are absolutely essential for superior rail track construction

A SUPERIOR DURATRACK WILL REDUCE: 

Maintenance costs

Labour requirements

Accidents

Working capital.

A SUPERIOR DURATRACK WILL INCREASE PRODUCTION THROUGH:

Improved availability of rolling stock

Efficient face cleaning

Timeous delivery of men and material
