Read MoreNordco Super Claws Spike Puller
Ideal for high-production, easy-spotting applications, the Super Claws pulls two spikes simultaneously from each side of the rail. The patented Nordco claw provides powerful pulling power, while the Super Claws design allows spike extraction where other machines can’t reach, such as at joint bars. Since claw fingers grasp spikes under the head while the workhead assembly pulls straight up, spikes stay straight and re-usable.

Nordco TRIPP - Tie Remover / Inserter
The Tie Remover and Inserter (TRIPP) includes two 86-inch-stroke-length workheads that allow the operator to perform removal/insertions from either side of the track, allowing greater control in obstructed or constricted areas. The TRIPP is designed to handle all wood, as well as wood composite, ties. In addition, optional concrete grippers are available to convert the TRIPP to handle concrete ties.

Knox Kershaw Inc. Model KTC 1200 Tie Crane
Capable of handling 1,200 pounds at a radius of 24 feet from track center, the KTC 1200 Tie Crane has a continuous rotation of 360 degrees. Heavy-duty, all-welded, reinforced construction of the upper deck and mainframe withstands loading and provides long life of the equipment. Minimal tail swing reduces the possibility of fouling the adjacent track. The propel system is at the deck level of the lower frame, allowing easy access to the motor, chain, etc. Each axle is powered by a hydraulic motor and #100 chain.
