The Buffer Stop, Sleeper Built Type ST-8, is a specialized railway safety device constructed from durable materials such as steel, concrete, or reinforced plastic. It features a robust design with integrated buffers and energy-absorbing components, engineered to withstand the impact forces generated by moving trains and bring them to a controlled stop without causing damage to the rolling stock or infrastructure.
Key Features:
Heavy-duty Construction: The Buffer Stop, Sleeper Built Type ST-8, is built to withstand the rigorous demands of railway operations, featuring a sturdy construction with reinforced components and high-strength materials to ensure long-lasting performance and reliability.
Integrated Buffers: Equipped with built-in buffers or shock absorbers, the buffer stop effectively absorbs the kinetic energy of approaching trains, reducing the impact force and minimizing the risk of derailment or damage to railway infrastructure.
Energy Dissipation: Utilizes advanced energy-dissipation mechanisms, such as hydraulic dampers or deformation zones, to dissipate the kinetic energy of trains during impact, ensuring a gradual and controlled deceleration to prevent sudden stops or jolts.
Visibility and Markings: Incorporates reflective markings, signal lights, or other visual indicators to enhance visibility and alert train operators of the buffer stop's presence, especially in low-light conditions or adverse weather.
Specifications:
Product: Buffer Stop, Sleeper Built Type ST-8
