Rail Power Cutter – The Husqvarna K1270 Rail petrol power cutter is universally recognised to be one of the market’s most powerful, popular and proven rail cutters.
Rail traffic with high speed trains and welded rails call for efficient, high precision cutters, because welded rails are subject to considerable tension as the temperature fluctuates, every cut has to be at a perfect right angle if the rail is to withstand the stresses involved and avoid displacement or failure.
The same applies to the isolating joints which separate whole sections of rail for automatic signalling purposes, letting the system know the train’s exact location.
Rail cutting and welding operations must be done quickly, often betweeen trains, to avoid delays. The K1270 Rail is equipped with the RA10 attachment, which fastens to the rail to ensure a perfect right angle cut.
* Equipped with double attachment mountings, to allow cutting from both directions
* Fast, stable mounting of the attachment to the rail
* Exact, right angle cuts on all planes
* Chronium plated, heat resistant blade guard which reduces slag build up
