Rail Handler LG

(Rail Handling Grapple Attachment)

The Dymax Rail Handler LG series safely grabs rail from piles without the need for workers to attach lifting straps or chains. Handle up to 90 feet of rail safely. The Dymax Rail Handler LG quickly attaches to hydraulic excavators and delivers rail to flash butt welders nearly ten times faster compared to using manual rigging methods such as cranes. Operators can also attach to many popular material handling machines for unloading railcars or placing jointed rail to and from the rail line. A Dymax Rail Handler LG significantly improves efficiency and safety.
