M-Generation

The tension clamps that forgive more

With the new M-Generation, we now offer even more robust tension clamps to our customers.

Despite increasing requirements and higher loads, they will continue to guarantee track safety for the future.
The innovative geometry with the spring arms bent outwards allows the use of more elastic systems to further reduce vibrations.
Significantly improved carbon footprint thanks to new micro-steel alloy.

Sustainability

Compact product design: significantly reduced carbon emissions (use of green steel)
Properties of the proven material are further optimized by additional micro-alloying (to guarantee fatigue limits/forces)
Low-stress bending & improved hardening during the manufacturing process

Operational safety

High natural frequency: Strengthens the clamp robustness
Innovative geometry with spring arms bent outwards for optimized contact points:
- Larger contact area at the rail base
- Higher torsional stiffness
Excellent load/deflection properties: maintains the stability under extreme conditions over long periods of time
Compact design: no risk of damage during tamping

Lifecycle costs

Increased robustness of the tension clamp & other fastening components (less wear)
Lower weight & more compact design: lower transport costs

M1: for the superstructure in light rail traffic with tight bends & maximum flexibility
M3: Successor to the Skl 15 in the high-speed, mainline & light rail traffic sectors
M5: reinforced M3 for increased requirements in high-speed traffic (>380 km/h & higher dynamic loads) as well as in heavy-haul applications; 25 % higher toe loads & high rail creep resistance
M7: Alternative to the Skl 1, Skl 14 and Skl 21 in the mainline, metro & high-speed ballast track segments
M9: Alternative to Skl 14 R, Skl 30, Skl 40 and Skl 42 for heavy freight traffic or routes with extreme requirements
M11: New development for applications on ribbed plates (indirect fastening) with optimized geometry and improved properties.
