Rail - A key component
of the crane
support system
Rail going through the ultra-sonic

testing machine.
Our access to large rail inventories can provide short delivery times.
Gantrex has over 30 years of experience in assisting in the selection of rail profiles to suit
numerous and varied applications on both steel and concrete supported runways.
Since a rail profile is the surface on which cranes and other material handling machines operate,
it is a most fundamental element of the structure: In general, the rail selection must satisfy criteria
such as reliability, economy and life expectancy. We can assist in selecting the rail characteristics
to meet specific design parameters. Gantrex is supported by an experienced Engineering
staff and associated rail mill technical expertise, backed by university testing and dedicated
laboratories. Our calculations, dimensioning and diagnoses are all essential elements required to
choose a rail to ensure longevity of the crane support structure.
Our technical and sales specialists further contribute by designing the most efficient crane
support system (ie., rail profile, clips, pad, soleplates, epoxy grout and anchor bolts). In addition,
an experienced field group provides project and design coordination, supervision and rail welding
(flash butt, thermite and puddle arc) capabilities.
Depending on the individual customer requirements (quantity, grade, profile and delivery),
Gantrex is normally in a good position to provide rail from local stock, preferred suppliers or
directly from the mill.

Crane Rail Welding
Methods
Gantrex Flash-Butt Welding

Overhead Rail.
Thermite welding in action.
A number of different rail welding processes have been used to produce efficient crane runways.
Gantrex has the history, experience and capability to field weld using Puddle Arc, Calorite
Thermal and Flash-Butt procedures. Below is a short overview of the most common methods:
Puddle Arc - an electro-slag process used extensively in Europe where it lends itself to the
joining relatively low carbon”A” rails. It is skill dependent, where weld is puddled into the rail gap
and retained by “coppers” matched to the rail profile. The “coppers” are individually shaped by the
welder to match his own “puddling” technique. Puddle Arc Welding can result in a good joint, but
is dependent of the skill of the welder. It also creates a larger heat-affected zone than thermal or
flash-butt rail welding. Battering can be a problem on higher cycle runways. Larger profiles may
take up to 10 hours per weld. Not commonly used today.
Calorite Thermal - a thermal-slag process using a chemical heat source. Rail ends are square
cut and sand molds are set on the sides and bottom of the rail. After preheat of the ends, a
thermal charge is ignited in a crucible and the molten steel allowed to flow into the cavity. The rail
ends are joined via a casting during the welding process. This weld is good, affords portability and
4-5 welds can be made by a two man crew in a normal shift.
Flash-Butt - technically, the best weld. It produces the smallest heat affected zone, minimizing
joint batter, and uses electric current and hydraulic rams to butt the rail ends together at the upset
temperature. As many as 4 welds per hour may be possible for overhead runways and 4-6 welds
per hour for ground tracks. This system is most effective when the rail is fed from a fixed location
and advanced down the runway on rollers. Used on runways where all the rail is replaced.

RailLok™
clips
A big step forward
The RailLok™ clips are the latest generation
of GANTREX® soft-mount crane rail
fixing devices. They bring to the market
improved performances compared to the
previous generation of clips: they are more
steadfast, they allow shorter installation
time, they boast stronger capacities and
they feature a narrower design, providing
operational and financial savings.
Gantrex Worldwide leader

As global leader in crane track solutions, Gantrex is present in
a wide range of industries: ports, shipyards, intermodal, steel,
aluminium, mining, automotive, warehousing and more.
Whether it’s cranes traveling on rail or machinery moving on

specialty tracks, GANTREX® clips, together with the GANTREX®
pads constitute the essence of the industry-proven soft rail
fixing system. In every application that requires fixing a rail
track: all types of industrial overhead cranes and transfer cars
systems, STS and automated portal cranes, stacker-reclaimers,
loaders and unloaders for bulk material handling, automated
stacker cranes for warehouse industry plus special heavy load
applications such as retractable roofs and rocket movers.
Designed as stress resistant, their mechanical performances

have been certified and tested by worldwide renowned
laboratories for the specialized Rail Tracks Construction.
Gantrex offices, staffed with qualified and trained technical

personnel, are located on all continents and available to
provide local application support and service in all industries
and applications, to be ON TRACK. WITH YOU.
Why a new technology?
For decades, Gantrex’ soft crane rail fixing systems have been satisfactorily addressing the industry
demand for reliable, resilient, productive and technically efficient solutions to their crane rail
installations.
However, as cranes’ capacities continue to grow, duty cycles increase, speeds become faster, and at
the same time, new generation of cranes are frequently constructed with more flexible frame and less
material, as are the structure which support those cranes. Resulting vibration and oscillation of the crane
and their support buildings are more common and lead to continuous high frequency cyclic stresses
which can result in failure of both the rail support structure and the crane itself.
Moreover, and although this had been previously experienced in other industries, a major and
fundamental change specifically intervenes in the port business: cargo-handling automation becomes a
crucial issue which paves the way to the port industry of the 21st century.
The RailLok™ solution
Because the new generations of (automated) cranes need even more performing fixing devices for
their rails, Gantrex has literally rewritten the state of the art.
Principle
The RailLok™ technology improves the features of the previous generation of clips by cleverly ensuring
self-contact between the clip and rail which keeps the tightened clip bolts in tension:
• either through the double wedge with patented self-contact of inclined bolt, for weldable clips;
• or through the glide washer and the grooved upper component, for the boltable clips.
Weldable clips Boltable clips
Designed with FEA, the RailLok™ clips feature higher load resistance than the previous generation of
clips without impacting the related operational cost of a crane runway. On the opposite! Combined
with the RailLok™ pad, to form a complete RailLok™ solution, they increase the soft mount performances
of the track and can be considered in this respect as OPEX killers: a state-of-art strong and soft
mount system will prevent rail lateral movements, and thus, avoid disturbances and necessary repairs
or readjustments on the track.
Aiming at accrued profitability of crane rail

But the RailLok™ clips are also CAPEX killers, as Gantrex reduces installation time by introducing safe
impact wrenches mounting and provides a narrower design allowing financial savings in the cost of
material needed by a crane runway construction.
Product range
Two main RailLok™ clip types are available for different fixing supports: welded-base or through-bolted.
The choice of either type of clips depends on technical conditions and local requirements.

CLIP SPECIFICATION
The RailLok™ patented clips are specifically designed to facilitate correct mounting of crane rails :
• The patented design with inclined bolt ensures tight and full self-contact with the rail foot.
• Bolts with “Square Shank Base” allow the use of impact-wrenches.
• Easier installation because of the wider adjustment range.
• Compact design : fits narrow girders and soleplates, avoid interference with guide rollers.
Once installed, the clips are self-locking and self-tightening.

Note : All dimensions are rounded off to serve as general guidelines only. Contact Gantrex for rail sizes not shown above and for help selecting rail pads.
COMPONENTS MATERIALS
The RailLok™ W10 is standard with a weldable forged steel lower component, a ductile cast iron upper component and vulcanize-bonded rubber nose. As
standard, the bolts and nuts are hot dip galvanized. The upper component can also be hot dip galvanized on request. Contact Gantrex for other options.
INSTALLATION AND SUGGESTED WELD INSTRUCTIONS

The lower component is welded on the support parallel to the axis of the rail and the upper component is fastened to it by means of one bolt and nut.
The recommended torque is 55 lb-ft. Electrical and pneumatic torque wrenches are allowed as long as the minimum torque of 45 lb-ft is met and the
torque does not exceed 75 lb-ft.
It is recommended the torque is regularly controlled with a calibrated torque wrench.
For most applications, the recommended weld throat size is 3/16”; the weld leg size is then 1/4”. If the pad is not used, the weld along the foot of
the rail must be adapted. Use any low hydrogen rod suitable for use with structural steel: ISO2560 type E 42 5 B 32 H5, E7018 or equivalent. For full
instructions on weld size and electrodes, refer to the data sheet “Installation and suggested weld instructions”.
Do not apply protective coating on the contact surface between upper and lower components unless accepted by Gantrex. Do not use solvents as they
may seriously damage the rubber nose.
We reserve the right to discontinue or change specifications or design at any time without prior notice and without incurring
any obligation whatsoever.

INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
The centerline of the rail must be used as the reference. Using gages is recommended.
Clips should be installed in opposing pairs. They should never be staggered.
Welding should be completed prior to pad installation, as excessive heat could damage the pad.
Do not paint between clip components unless accepted by Gantrex.
Clip spacing, distance of weld to the edge of the steel plate, as well as corrosion protection will depend on the application.
Please consult Gantrex.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR WELDING

The lower component of the GANTREX® clips is welded to the support structure. The actual weld size is dictated by design thrust and should be specified
by the designer, who must also give comprehensive welding procedure.
Weld “Y” on the back and sides of the clip may be as large as required to accommodate the imposed side thrust and to meet governing welding code
requirements.
Welds “X” and “Z” on the side facing the rail may not exceed the indicated values. This will avoid any interference with the locating lug on the upper
component or the rail.
Weld “Z” on the side along the rail must be adapted if no pad is used: the foot of the rail may touch the weld.
If the weld size or length are reduced, the full capacity of the clip might be jeopardized, please consult Gantrex.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Make sure to choose the adequate bolt grade to achieve the clip side load resistance : Grade A325 for 9 kips and Grade A490 for 12 kips.
The main component is first positioned on the bolt against the rail and the special washer is then positioned on the main component with its heel into
the slot of the clip. The nut is hand tightened. Once the main component is in position, use an electrical or pneumatic wrench to torque the nut.
For most applications, use bolts complying with ISO 4014 (DIN 931) or ISO 4017 (DIN 933) and the corresponding nuts and washers.
For full instructions on the use of RailLok™ boltable clips, refer to the data sheet “Installation Instructions”.
Do not apply protective coating on the contact surface between components and support unless accepted by Gantrex. Do not use solvents as they may
seriously damage the rubber nose.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CORRECT POSITIONING AND SUPPORT SIZE

The centerline of the rail must be used as the reference. Using gages or templates is recommended.
Do not paint between clips and support unless approved by Gantrex.
Clip spacing, distance of hole to the edge of the steel plate, as well as corrosion protection will depend on the application. Please consult Gantrex.
The GANTREX® clips must remain in contact over their entire surface with the support. The distance of the holes to the edges and the thickness of
the support itself are dictated by design thrust and should be specified by the designer, who must also provide comprehensive installation procedure.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CHOICE OF BOLTS AND TIGHTENING

Suggested bolts: A325 or A490; equivalent to ISO4014 or ISO 4017; and their corresponding washers and nuts. Be aware that treatment against corro-
sion can affect the strength of bolts, namely for 10.9 grades. Hot-dip galvanized bolts complying with ISO14399 can then be used.
Be advised that DIN 78 recommends that 2 threads protrude, EN 1090 minimum 1 thread, US codes requires no thread but good practice may be at
least one or two exposed threads.
Once the clip is positioned against the rail, use an electrical or pneumatic wrench to torque the nut.
If nuts are mounted on the clip, be advised that a thin-walled

socket is needed due to space limitations.
Verification of the required hardware torque and clip

adjustment should be performed within the first three
months after operation start-up.

SUGGESTED WELD AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Weldlok™ 10, 20, 32 & 43

Weldable Clips
SUGGESTED WELD
• The lower component of the GANTREX Weldlok Series clip is welded to the support structure. The weld size in the
V-shaped recess on the side facing the rail, must not exceed 3/16”. This will avoid any interference with the locating
lug on the upper component. Welds on the back and sides of the clip may be as large as required to accommodate
the imposed side thrust and to meet governing welding code requirements.
• The following are welds suggested by GANTREX. The actual weld size (which is dictated by design thrust) and the
welding procedure should be specified by the designer.

• The correct bolt assembly for the Weldlok 32 consists of a modified M20 HHCS x 35mm screw with a 20 mm jam nut
and 3/4” hardened structural washer.
• Weld rod: any low hydrogen rod suitable for use with structural steel may be used. Typical designations include E7018.
• Clips should be installed in opposing pairs. They should NEVER be staggered.
• For new installations the lower component should be welded in the fabrication facility (steps 1 and 2).
• Welding should be completed prior to pad installation, as excessive heat could damage the pad.
• Painting the lower component may reduce side thrust capacity. Consult GANTREX for additional information.
It is imperative that the clips be adjusted to ensure ZERO lateral rail float as shown in Figure 6. Improper
adjustment will cause pad failure. Verification of the required hardware torque and clip upper adjustment
should be performed within the first three months of running operation.

CLAMP - K15
CLAMP SPECIFICATION
Many rails or tracks, for instance in shipyards, are located in large platforms and embedded in the concrete. These tracks are designed to handle trans-
fer chariots or cranes with heavy loads. They move infrequently and travel at low speeds.
The Gantrex clamps “K15” are specifically designed for the hard mounting of crane rails when rail pad is not used and when a high vertical wheel load
stabilizes the rail:
• The clamps can be fixed with M24 bolts to the supporting structure or directly on the anchor bolts;
• They exert a strong vertical clamping force on the foot of the rail;
• They contribute to the stabilization of the rail for side loads up to 28 kips.

CLAMP - K15+
CLAMP SPECIFICATION
Many rails or tracks, for instance in shipyards, are located in large platforms and embedded in the concrete. These tracks are designed to handle trans-
fer chariots or cranes with heavy loads. They move infrequently and travel at low speeds.
The Gantrex clamps “K15+” are specifically designed for the hard mounting of crane rails when rail pad is not used and when a high vertical wheel load
stabilizes the rail:
• The clamps can be fixed with M24 bolts to the supporting structure or directly on the anchor bolts;
• They exert a strong vertical clamping force on the foot of the rail;
• They contribute to the stabilization of the rail for side loads up to 27 kips, depending on the bolt class.
• The lateral adjustment range allows for better rail installation and alignment.

PAD - MK9.1
The GANTREX “double-crown” RailLok™ series patent

pending pad is specifically designed to perform integrally
with the RailLok™ series clips for the soft mounting of rails.
A full range of pad widths is available to provide the very

best technical solution for each individual application.
The “redesigned edge seal” virtually eliminates the ingress of contaminants and water which can cause premature failure of the pad, rail and
support structure. These seals also improve the compression caused by the nose of the clip, preventing pad movement when the pressure of
the rail is released.
The updated “design of the grooves” avoids high stresses and resultant damage due to high loads, rail twisting and oscillation.

be used to fix the rail laterally in order to keep the pad firmly under the rail.
2. The upper surface of the supporting structure should be clean and free from oil, grease and any sharp or abrasive particles that are likely
to damage the pad. Please consult Gantrex before a corrosion protection painting system can be applied on the supporting structure before
the installation of the pad.
3. The pad should be laid in continuous lengths on the support surface, with the grooved side up, the ends butted tightly together and centered
at a pair of rail clips. Rail pad should always be centered beneath the rail foot so that it is completely covered.
4. Pad joints should be at least 1 meter away from rail joints, adjacent girder joints or building expansion joints.
5. The minimum length of pad should not be less than 3 times the center distance between clips.
6. Pad stops should be considered at the ends of each runway and where the continuity of the support cannot be achieved and large gaps
between adjacent pads may occur.
7. Do not use cleaning fluids or protective coatings which contain ketones or similar chemicals, as they may seriously damage the rubber pad.
Please consult Gantrex on any questions regarding installation.

Crane Rail Welding
Methods
Gantrex Flash-Butt Welding

Overhead Rail.
Thermite welding in action.
A number of different rail welding processes have been used to produce efficient crane runways.
Gantrex has the history, experience and capability to field weld using Puddle Arc, Calorite
Thermal and Flash-Butt procedures. Below is a short overview of the most common methods:
Puddle Arc - an electro-slag process used extensively in Europe where it lends itself to the
joining relatively low carbon”A” rails. It is skill dependent, where weld is puddled into the rail gap
and retained by “coppers” matched to the rail profile. The “coppers” are individually shaped by the
welder to match his own “puddling” technique. Puddle Arc Welding can result in a good joint, but
is dependent of the skill of the welder. It also creates a larger heat-affected zone than thermal or
flash-butt rail welding. Battering can be a problem on higher cycle runways. Larger profiles may
take up to 10 hours per weld. Not commonly used today.
Calorite Thermal - a thermal-slag process using a chemical heat source. Rail ends are square
cut and sand molds are set on the sides and bottom of the rail. After preheat of the ends, a
thermal charge is ignited in a crucible and the molten steel allowed to flow into the cavity. The rail
ends are joined via a casting during the welding process. This weld is good, affords portability and
4-5 welds can be made by a two man crew in a normal shift.
Flash-Butt - technically, the best weld. It produces the smallest heat affected zone, minimizing
joint batter, and uses electric current and hydraulic rams to butt the rail ends together at the upset
temperature. As many as 4 welds per hour may be possible for overhead runways and 4-6 welds
per hour for ground tracks. This system is most effective when the rail is fed from a fixed location
and advanced down the runway on rollers. Used on runways where all the rail is replaced.

Rail Welding
Aluminothermic welding
PRINCIPLE
Aluminothermic welding is a welding process for the joining of rails. The aluminothermic compound is a mixture of metal
oxides, alloying elements and special additives. These react to form the metal, simultaneously creating an exothermic reaction to produce
superheated molten steel which forms the weld.
The rails to be joined together are aligned leaving a prescribed gap between their ends. Preformed refractory moulds are fitted around the
gap formed at the junction of the two rails. The updated process uses a one-shot crucible.
Below general description of process is presented, for more details refer for welding Gantrex manual and recommendations.
EQUIPMENT
An aluminothermic kit is used to weld two rails together. The kit is composed of 3 pieces moulds which seal the prescribed cavity between
each rail to receive and shape the flow of hot metal coming from the one short crucible after ignition of the aluminothermic powder of the
portion.
RAIL CUTS
• The rail edges must be vertical and square cut, using a rail circular saw cut (no flame cutting allowed).
• Ends must be free from rust and carefully cleaned.
RAIL INSTALLATION AND SET UP

The two rail ends being welded are carefully aligned and fixed with a gap between them.
A ceramic mould is then placed around the gap and sealed by luting sand.

Rail Welding
RAIL PREHEATING
Using a specially designed burner, the moulds and the enclosed rail ends are pre-heated for a time, dependent upon the rail section, to
achieve the correct welding temperature.
IGNITION
When the correct degree of preheat has been achieved reaction is initiated in the crucible using a special igniter.
Superheated molten steel is produced by an alumino thermic reaction.
The mixture is ignited, and an intense exothermic chemical reaction between the fine aluminum and iron oxide powder occurs in the
crucible.
Page 2/4
GXHQ-EN 2018-05 R0
www.gantrex.com
Rail Welding
WELDING
At the correct time the tapping system at the base of the crucible discharges the superheated molten steel into moulds via the pouring cup.
The reaction heat makes the charge melt and the molten steel pours into the mould through a temperature operated thimble, flowing down
into the gap to form the weld. The slag which is mostly aluminum oxide requires about 20-25 seconds after completing the reaction to sepa-
rate from the molten steel and float to the upper part of the crucible.
Rail ends that have been preheated using gas torches are joined by partially melting them with the superheated liquid steel metal resulting
from the chemical reaction.
At this stage no shocks or vibration is accepted.
COOLING & RAIL SHEARING
Shearing is performed when the weld has set long enough and before it has become cold.
The shearing operation is done on running surface, rail head sides and risers.
After cooling and solidification of the weld, the mould is removed and the excess welded metal around the rail head is sheared off.
The upper surface of the head is then finished by grinding to the shape of the adjoining rail head profile.
Page 3/4
GXHQ-EN 2018-05 R0.0
www.gantrex.com
Rail Welding
RAIL GRINDING
Immediately after shearing, a rough grinding is performed on the rail head.

Following an appropriate cooling period, the rail head is ground to precise profile dimensions.
Finally the rail is aligned and fastened
CONTROL AND TESTS
Therefore, it is necessary to control all weld charge contents and keep them within specifications in order to achieve acceptable weld quality and
reliability. Each weld will be reported by welding and control team.

Hydraulic
bumpers
Safety first
To keep up with increasing demands for
productivity, material handling and bulk material
handling equipment manufacturers are being forced
to build machines that travel at higher speeds
than before. The modern engineering trend is also
to design equipment with greater precision, with
a minimal factor of safety. Consequently, it has
become even more important to provide carefully
selected and designed safety devices, such as
hydraulic shock absorbers, between a moving
machine and the structure.
Gantrex worldwide
distributor
Gantrex, a market leader in crane runway
systems, now proudly represents Oleo as a sole
distributor of industrial shock absorbers in over
100 countries around the globe.
Gantrex offices, staffed with qualified and

trained technical personnel, are located on
all continents and available to provide local
application support and service in all industries
Gantrex can offer Oleo solutions for a variety of material
handling and others applications such as:
• All types of cranes and transfer cars
• Stackers, reclaimers, ship loaders and unloaders
• Automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS)
• Non crane energy absorbing applications of all kinds

in a host of industries such as steel or aluminum
plants, paper mills, cement mills, storage facilities,
concrete pipe manufacturing, oil industry, aerospace,
conveyors, rock crushers to name just a few.
Why Oleo hydraulic shock absorbers?

What sets the Oleo hydraulic bumper above all other energy absorbers is the ability to dissipate up to 95% of the
impact energy, leading to controlled deceleration of moving equipment, whatever the speed of impact. Bumpers
are backed by Gantrex production, technical support and installation assistance for any requirement, anywhere
in the world.

Key Features and Benefits
• Orifice calibrated by a specially designed metering for the highest mechanical efficiency resulting
in the lowest impact force. Oleo is the first manufacturer to use this method of a variable, metered
orifice.
• Fatigueless nitrogen gas spring and a floating separator allow for a compact size, without the use of
dangerous mechanical springs for bumper plunger return. This also provides full drive-down ability at
slow speeds for maximum end approach.
• Corrosion and wear resistant plating is available on all plungers.
• A sophisticated simulation program, based on years of testing and research, has been developed to
provide accurate force/stroke diagrams plus deceleration curves for all applications.
• Robust design suitable to work in harsh environments, including a temperature range of -40 °F to
+275 °F, with special oil & seal technology and protective finishes.
• Flexible mounting arrangements, including rear flange, front flange or capsule mounting.
• Long life cycle reduces lifetime cost.
• Custom brackets and adapters are also available to allow the bumper to be installed in machinery
housings and to different mounting hole patterns
Simulation curves
After decades of testing and simulating the

performance of the gas hydraulic bumper,
a mathematical algorithm has been
developed. It is now possible to simulate
the bumper performances and provide you
the “Force vs Stroke” curves, as well as the
deceleration curves.
The simulations are based on testing

full size units to ensure a high degree
of correlation, providing you with the
confidence to design your structure and
machines to predictable end forces.

Bumper Calculations
OLEO Sample Calculations
BOdiES in mOtiOn
Kinetic Energy is associated with a body in motion. Newton’s 1st Law of Motion states that a body will continue in motion
unless acted upon by a force. An Oleo Hydraulic Bumper will control the magnitude and duration of this force. Newton’s 2nd
Law of Motion provides that the rate of change of motion is proportional to the force applied. An Oleo Hydraulic Bumper
ensures that the force applied is always the minimum required to produce the desired change in motion. Newton’s 3rd Law of
Motion identifies that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. An Oleo Hydraulic Bumper controls the arresting
force and limits the reaction on the supporting structure. These principles are the foundation for understanding the benefits and
characteristics of a hydraulic energy absorber such as the Oleo Hydraulic Bumper.
KinEtiC EnERGY
A body in motion, such as a crane, has kinetic energy that must be dissipated to bring it to rest. A hydraulic bumper produces
a resistive force over a displacement to dissipate the energy by converting work energy to thermal energy. The bumper forces
oil through a variable orifice to produce fluidic friction and therefore a resisting force.
The graph above on the right shows equal amounts of kinetic energy (represented by the area under the Force vs. Stroke
curve) being absorbed with different stroke lengths. As you can see, the more stroke, the lower the resistive force. This
resistive force is proportional to the rate of change of motion, or deceleration. Ultimately, the Oleo bumper governs the
magnitude of force transmitted to both the impacting body as well as the reaction force onto the support or fixed structure.
pROpELLinG FORCES
In many applications, the body in motion is also being propelled. This propelling force is additive with the Kinetic Energy as it
acts through the displacement of the bumper. It is always important to determine whether or not the impacting body will be
propelled during the impact and to allow sufficient additional energy capacity. Not all design codes or references include
propelling forces, so it is the designer’s responsibility to determine when they should be considered.
BumpER End FORCES and tHE dESiGnER

Oleo bumper end forces can be easily calculated and have been verified through extensive testing. For most applications, a
standard hydraulic bumper can be utilized to meet the requirements of typical safety codes. Often, the designer can select a
longer stroke bumper to further reduce the transmitted force generating a savings in the cost of structure and sometimes in the
machine itself. For applications with impacting speeds above 500 ft/min (2.5 m/sec) or special deceleration requirements,
please consult Gantrex for assistance.

Mounting Brackets
STANDARD BRACKETS
Gantrex hydraulic bumpers are extremely versatile with respect to mounting options. As shown in the individual
bumper data sheets, standard mounting flanges for “Front” or “Rear” mounting are most typical. Bolt pattern
and hole sizes are clearly shown in the drawings provided. Each standard mounting flange has an additional
hole to allow safety wire to be looped back from the bumper to the crane or supporting structure. If these
“standard” configurations do not suit your requirements, we are able to provide custom designed brackets or
flanges upon request. These custom designs include boltable and weldable styles.
FOOT MOUNTING BRACKETS
The following charts show standard configurations of weldable foot mounting brackets. These designs can be

Industrial Hydraulic Bumper
TYPE 70
The Type 70 bumper is a long stroke 700kN bumper
available with 19.5" and 23.5" stroke that offers good
all-round performance for a number of different heavy
duty applications.
They are commonly used on dockside cranes, the heavy

machinery used for bulk material-handling and rail end stops.
Product details
• Can be impacted repeatedly at forces up to 700kN
• Dynamic absorption capacity of up to 367kJ (at 600mm stroke)
• Metering of bumper is carefully controlled by design of internal ‘pin’ component
• Configuration options for buffer include:
• Increased corrosion resistance
• Protective bellows – standard or with extra protection against intense sunlight
• With or without front or rear positioned mounting flanges
• Temperature options available for either a minimum of -40°C or a maximum of +130°C
• Safety cable that fastens plunger to cylinder
• 140mm or 200mm diameter buffer head
Product advantages
• Long life cycle reduces lifetime cost
• Performance can be optimised for one or more impact scenarios; reaction forces will then be optimal at any velocity
• Durable against prolonged exposure to chemical corrosion, weathering or UV radiation
• Protective bellow design has passed extensive environmental, endurance and particulate testing
• Negligible energy passed back to mass after impact

danger from high winds or microbursts can cause serious safety problems. Sudden, high winds can propel a crane
along its runway until it impacts the end stops. Often the impact speed is considerably higher than the full load rated
travel speed of the crane. A storm bumper can offer protection for most container cranes at speeds up to 5 miles per
hour with limited bumper end force. Storm bumpers consist of one or more hydraulic bumpers mounted on the end
stops of the pier. A suitable striking surface on the crane leg or end truck engages the bumper.
Controlling impacts and reducing resultant damaging effects have historically been a problem in heavy crane
applications. OIeo hydraulic bumpers are efficient and effective energy absorbers that offer the following features:
Provide uniform deceleration and low end forces, with over 95% efficiency in energy absorption and
dissipation
Allow easy drive down for maximum end approach, through fatigueless gas spring return
Provide reliability and durability even in caustic or marine environments due to their heavy-duty, forged steel
construction
Are available in a full range of standard bumper sizes and configurations with energy capacity over
1,000,000 ft-lbs
Are warranted for one year

OLEO STORM BUMPER GANTREX
OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The Oleo bumper is basically a large oil dashpot,
incorporating a variable orifice, and the sectional
illustration shows its simple, heavy duty construction.
Under impact, the plunger is forced into the cylinder
displacing oil through the orifice into the plunger, moving
the separator piston towards the bumper head and
compressing the air (nitrogen) to a higher pressure. The
compressed air (nitrogen) acting through the separator
piston on to the oil forms the recoil “spring” to re-extend
the bumper plunger.
STORM BUMPER SELECTION EXAMPLE

Container Crane Total Weight = 2,700,000 lbs
Maximum Allowable End Force Per Corner = 330,000 lbs
Protect the Crane at up to 5 mph
Impact Weight Per Corner = 1/2 (Total Crane Weight)
= 1,350,000 lbs
Impact Weight Per Corner can be greater than the above. Sometimes this can be as much as 60% of total crane
weight. In the Engineering Data table below, look in the “Maximum Impact Weight Per Corner” column, under the
desired speed, for the calculated “Impact Weight Per Corner”. In this example, we have 1,350,000 lbs and the Storm
Bumper Model SB-6 at 5 mph is rated for up to 1,392,952 lbs. Therefore, this is an acceptable solution. Now, we can
calculate the Kinetic Energy per corner as follows:
2
= 1/2 (Impact Weight / 32.2) x (Speed x 1.467)
2
Kinetic Energy Per Corner at 5 mph = 1/2 (1,350,000 lbs / 32.2) x (5 mph x 1 .467)
= 1,127,841 ft-lbs
(Kinetic Energy)
Actual End Force Per Corner at 5 mph = -----------------------------
(Efficiency) x (Stroke)
(1,127,841 ft-lbs)

is required.
priNcipLE OF OpEraTiON
Upon impact, the plunger displaces oil through orifices in the metering tube, into
the reservoir. The size and position of these orifices can be varied to suit different
mass ranges. Plunger return is achieved by a gas spring recoil system. During
production, the gas spring is inflated with nitrogen gas and sealed for the life of the
bumper.
The bumper is designed with low static resistance. Under slow closure, the low
resistance allows the shock absorber plunger to be driven in, thus maximizing
runway approaches.
The shock absorbers can be supplied with options such as safety cables, bellows,
low and high temperature seals, marine plating for outdoor use, to suit a range of
requirements.

LDi Series 200 Bumpers
Type 204 - 212
INTRODUCTION
Gantrex is proud to present the LDi Series 200 bumper, designed for lighter duty applications than the
Oleo heavy industrial range of shock absorbers.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The operation of the Series 200 bumper is very simple. Upon impact, the plunger displaces oil through
orifices in the metering tube into the oil reservoir. The size and position of these orifices can be varied to suit
different ranges of weights.
Plunger reset is achieved by a gas spring return system. During production, the gas spring is inflated with
nitrogen gas to a pressure of 72.5 psi (5 bar) and sealed for life. It requires no further attention after leaving the
factory. The testing procedure utilizes a tracer gas which, although inert, can be detected in minute traces by
sophisticated quality control equipment.
By virtue of the design of the bumper, under slow closure, the resistance is very low, which means that the
bumper can easily be driven down, thus utilizing maximum runway length and better hook approach.

Epoxy Grout
GANTREX™ K3
DESCRIPTION
GANTREX™ K3 Epoxy Grout is a self-leveling, easily pourable, 100% solids epoxy grout consisting of an epoxy resin, a catalyst/hardener and
carefully graded and blended aggregate. It is ideal for applications subjected to shock, vibration and impact loads and machines used at high
duty cycles.
APPLICATIONS
GANTREX™ K3 Epoxy Grout is designed to be used where a pourable, non-shrink, chemical resistant, high strength grout is required. Applica-
tions include rail on concrete installations, such as gantry cranes, container cranes, stacker-reclaimers, transfer car runways, log handling crane
runways and many other types of material handling applications.
FEATURES & ADVANTAGES

• HIGH EARLY STRENGTH
When properly installed, GANTREX™ K3 Epoxy Grout gains strength rapidly and can reach between 80% of its compressive strength
in 24 hours, depending on curing conditions. When fully cured, it achieves higher compressive, tensile and flexural strengths than
cement-based grouts. These characteristics are essential for crane applications with heavy wheel loads and high dynamic loads.
• STRONG ADHESIVE BOND

Properly placed GANTREX™ K3 Epoxy Grout creates a superior bond to both the steel soleplates and concrete base ensuring that there is no
relative movement between the three support components.
• HIGH CHEMICAL RESISTANCE

GANTREX™ K3 Epoxy grout is a thermo-setting plastic and therefore exhibits a high resistance to most chemicals and corrosive
environments.
• EXCELLENT FLOW CHARACTERISTICS

GANTREX™ K3 Epoxy Grout is specifically formulated to have excellent flow characteristics when compared to other epoxy grouts. Based on a
consultation with Gantrex, the aggregate content may also be field-modified to improve flow, particularly in cold weather conditions.
• USER-FRIENDLY PACKAGING
GANTREX™ K3 Epoxy Grout is available in economical 3 ft³ units.
• DIRECT BLENDING IN MORTAR MIXER

GANTREX™ K3 Epoxy Grout components can be directly blended in a mortar mixer. Other epoxy grouts may require hand or separate mixing of
resin and hardener prior to the blending in the mortar mixer, resulting in higher labor costs and longer installation times.
• EASE OF CLEAN-UP
Tools used for the installation of GANTREX™ K3 Epoxy Grout, including the mortar mixer, can be easily cleaned with soap and water solution,
prior to set.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES OVERVIEW

(Contact Gantrex for detailed instructions)
TEMPERATURE CONSIDERATIONS
FOR BEST RESULTS, GANTREX™ K3 EPOXY GROUT SHOULD BE TRANSPORTED, STORED AND PLACED WITH THE PRODUCT
TEMPERATURE MAINTAINED BETWEEN 70°F (21°C) and 90°F (32°C). Surface temperature of the concrete base and soleplates should also be
maintained in this range during placement.
Consult Gantrex for cold or hot weather grout installations.
YIELD
Final product yield is based on accurate mixing and placing of a standard (full load) aggregate mix. Yield is expressed in the same units as the
product packaging, three (3) cubic foot units.
MIXING AND PLACEMENT

A mortar mixer, not a cement mixer should be used to mix the 3 grout components. Place the resin (Part “A”) into a clean mortar mixer and
add the hardener (part “B”), while the mixer is in motion. Mix for one to two (1 to 2) minutes. Add the aggregate while the mixer is still in motion.
Mix for approximately one (1) additional minute, making sure that all the aggregate is thoroughly wetted. Do not over mix. Place the grout within
30 minutes of mixing.
Place the grout using a head box (See next page). It is important that grout be poured from only one side of the soleplate or base plate to avoid
air entrapment beneath. If this is not possible, consult Gantrex for air relief (vent) hole locations.
MIXING AND PLACEMENT PRECAUTIONS:

• Gantrex epoxy grout must be placed on clean and dry surfaces only.
• The concrete surface must be prepared by removing laitance and exposing the aggregate.
• Use a small jackhammer with a bushing bit to obtain a roughness of 1/8”.
• After placement, avoid exposure to water for 24 hours to allow for proper curing.
• Temperature range for curing is 70˚F (21˚C) min. to 105˚F (40˚C) max.
• Pour thickness range is 3/4” (19mm) minimum to 4” (100mm) maximum for single pour.
• For pours outside the minimum/maximum temperatures & depths above, contact Gantrex.
• Control joints should be considered every 10 feet for 3/4” pour, and less for a 4” pour.
STORAGE & SHELF LIFE

The shelf life of GANTREX™ K3 Epoxy Grout is two (2) years from date of manufacture if the liquid components are stored in heated ware-
house conditions and kept sealed in their original containers. Aggregate must be kept free from moisture & high relative humidity.

The above information is representative of actual production runs. Independent test results and job site conditions may vary.
SURFACE PREPARATION, MIXING & PLACEMENT

All surfaces that will be in contact with the grout must be clean and free of grease, oil, standing water, laitance, loose material or any other
contaminant that could impair substrate bond. Prior to grouting, foundation concrete should be roughened, cleaned and thoroughly moistened
for several hours. Free standing water should be blown clear prior to grouting with oil-free compressed air.
Forms must be rigid and watertight. Sides should be 1 to 2 inches (25 to 50 mm) above the soleplate to allow a “head” of grout flow to the proper
level. Vent high points to allow the escape of trapped air. Grout must be placed from one side only to allow flow to the opposite form. Use the
minimum amount of water needed, consistent with the desired flowability.
Do not exceed 1.05 gallons (4L) per 55 LB (25kg) bag of mix. Mix thoroughly and place within 1 hour. Keep grout in the mixer agitated at all
times. As the grout sets, cure the exposed surfaces with Acrylic Cure & Seal or cover with damp burlap.
The ideal ambient temperature for pouring cement grout is 50°F - 77°F (10°C - 25°C). Cooler temperatures may retard the rate of strength gain
for all mixes. Keep surrounding concrete and steel above 40°F (4.5°C) for at least 72 hours after completing the pour.

Adhesive Anchor Bolts
For Crane Rail on Concrete Applications
A Member of the GANTREX GROUP

A Member of the GANTRY GROUP
INTRODUCTION
The Gantrex Anchor Bolt Assembly is used to mount rail soleplates and other equipment with a polyester-based
resin & catalyst compound. It is installed by drilling a hole in the concrete deck, mixing the resin and filling the hole.
The mixed resin performs as an adhesive, suspending the bolt in place until it cures to complete the process.
Unlike anchors using epoxy-based resin, Gantrex anchors can be placed in temperatures as low as 10°F.
The bolt itself is an all-thread steel rod, complete with a nut and a washer. Bolts can be supplied in different
diameters and lengths. The polyester-based resin is supplied either in quart cans, which can be mixed and poured
directly from the container, into the hole, or in convenient high-capacity cartridges, mixed and injected with a gun.
*NOTE: Epoxy-based anchors are also available. Please consult Gantrex.
MATERIALS
Anchor Bolt
Material: Steel Rod A36: Fy (min) = 36,000 psi Ft (min) = 58,000 psi
B7: Fy (min) = 105,000 psi Ft (min) = 125,000 psi
Finish: Zinc plated or hot dipped galvanized.
Freight classification: Class 50
Polyester-based resin
Packaging: Liquid Supplied in quart cans, (6) cans per carton or (12) high-capacity cartridges with catalyst.
Freight classification: Resin Solution, Class 3, UN 1866, Packing Gp. lll.
Catalyst (Hardener)
Packaging: Powder Supplied in bottle type containers, (6) per carton (or included with above cartridges).
Freight classification: Organic Peroxide, Type D solid (Dibenzoyl Peroxide,50%)5.2, UN 3106, Packing Gp. ll.
PLACEMENT PROCEDURE
Holes are air-drilled in concrete deck, using a soleplate as template. The drilled holes are 1/8” greater in
diameter, than the anchor bolt diameter. These holes are then cleaned to remove dust and debris.
One container of catalyst is added to one can of polyester resin and mixed in the can for 60 to 90 seconds,
or injected directly via cartridge. The mixture is poured or injected into the hole, to about one third the depth. The
anchor bolt is then suspended from the soleplate, and placed in the resin in the hole. Rotate the anchor bolt
within the hole so that all threads are completely covered with adhesive. The resin cures and sets firm in about
one hour. The anchors must not be disturbed during this time. Full cure occurs at around 24 hours.
SUGGESTED EMBEDMENT
It is important that anchor bolts are embedded to a proper depth to achieve adequate strength. In 5 ksi concrete,
for example, we suggest that A36 anchor bolts be embedded to at least 8 times their diameter (a 3/4” rod will
require an embedded length of at least 6”). This is adequate to achieve a strong enough bond with the concrete
such that, in a pullout test, the anchor bolt will yield before the bond with the concrete. Similarly, the suggested
embedment for B7 bolts is 12 times the bolt diameter.

HOW TO SPECIFY AND ORDER

1. To specify and order a Gantrex adhesive anchor bolt assembly, first determine the correct diameter and
length, based on the application requirements.
2. Determine correct part number from the above table and notes. For example, AB 1x14-A36G would
be the part number for a 1” x 14” long, diameter bolt of A36 material, with one nut and one washer,
all hot dipped galvanized.
3. If substrate temperature is likely to be below 45°F (7°C), at time of actual installation, please double the
quantity of catalyst, at time of order placement. Also indicate if liquid cans or cartridges are preferred.
While the steel hardware can be shipped at any time, due to the sensitivity of the resin/catalyst system, it is
recommended that the adhesive be shipped 3-4 weeks prior to actual installation. This time allows for the
temperature of the adhesive to stabilize prior to installation.
For Installation Assistance, please contact Gantrex at 1-800-242-6873.
GANTREX reserves the right to discontinue or change specifications at any time without prior notice and without incurring
any obligation whatsoever. MSDS sheets available upon request.

ADHESIVE ANCHOR BOLT INSTALLATION
Hole Drilling & Cleaning
Surface preparation is important and Gantrex recommends that all holes for concrete anchor
bolts be made with air tools. Pneumatic drilling cleans the hole while drilling and provides a rough
texture inside the hole for easier bonding between the adhesive, bolt and concrete.
If holes are electric drilled, they must be wired brushed and blown out so that dust and debris
are cleared. If holes are DIAMOND-CORE DRILLED, the sides of the holes must be scored to
allow the resin to develop a keying action to the concrete surface.
Holes should be 1/8” larger than the bolt diameter and meet minimum embedment standards.
(See the volume chart on Page 3.) Do not use Keligrout in holes that are more than 1/4" larger
than the anchor diameter without first consulting Gantrex.

Gantrex Anchor Bolt Adhesives
Mixing
Pour the pre-proportioned hardening powder (catalyst) into the quart can. Stir thoroughly by
hand using an anchor, stir stick or electric paint mixer for at least 65 stirs, (90 seconds), mixing
thoroughly from the bottom to the top. Make sure the catalyst is distributed throughout the
resin. Pour the mixed adhesive directly into the bottom 1/3 of the prepared hole.
Bolt Placement
Push the rod to the bottom of the hole and rotate it to assure total "wetting". Hold in place,
undisturbed, until gel occurs, usually within minutes, depending on the ambient temperature at
the time of installation. Do not disturb the anchor for at least one (1) hour. After the
material has cooled it will have 50 to 60% of its ultimate strength. Full cure will be in 24 hours.
Shelf Life
Shelf life of KELIGROUT™ is 6 months from date (lot number) which is stamped on every can.
KELIGROUT™ should be stored at 70°F (21°C), and out of direct sunlight. Storage temperatures
should never exceed 85°F (30°C).
Shipping
When shipping Keligrout always use D.O.T. #UN1133 for Flammable Liquid.
Installing in Hot Weather
1. Keep Keligrout cool until immediately before using. An insulated cooler (and a little ice on
really hot days) will do a good job. Do not let cans get wet.
2. Keep containers of Keligrout out of direct sunlight.
Installing in Cold Weather
1. Always use (2) containers of hardener when temperature is below 45°F.

2. Keep anchors, rebar and Keligrout warm (70°F) until ready to use.
3. A 100 watt bulb enclosed in a lockup box or insulated cooler works well at the job site.
Material can also be warmed under a compressor engine's cover or in a truck cab.
CAUTION
Solvents for Keligrout are highly flammable and volatile.
DO NOT SMOKE OR USE NEAR OPEN FLAME OR SPARKS.
MSDS sheets available on request.

Volume
Always drill an exact depth hole for the needed embedment. Gantrex provides approximately
twice the amount of adhesive required to anchor each bolt to the specified embedment. These
amounts can be easily determined using displacement formulae.

If you get less yield than the chart above shows, check for these causes:
Hole is too deep. Resin lies beneath anchor that "hangs" from nut put on
before installation.
Too much resin was poured into hole. The anchor displaced surplus resin
that has over-flowed out the top of the hole.
Too large a diameter hole was drilled. Always follow instructions

as to diameter

ADHESIVE ANCHOR BOLT INSTALLATION
Hole Drilling & Cleaning
Surface preparation is important and Gantrex recommends that all holes for concrete anchor
bolts be made with air tools. Pneumatic drilling cleans the hole while drilling and provides a rough
texture inside the hole for easier bonding between the adhesive, bolt and concrete.
If holes are electric drilled, they must be wired brushed and blown out so that dust and debris
are cleared. If holes are DIAMOND-CORE DRILLED, the sides of the holes must be scored to
allow the resin to develop a keying action to the concrete surface.
Holes should be 1/8” larger than the bolt diameter and meet minimum embedment standards.
(See the volume chart on Page 3.) Do not use Keligrout in holes that are more than 1/4" larger
than the anchor diameter without first consulting Gantrex.

Gantrex Anchor Bolt Adhesive - Cartridges
Grout Insertion
Fit a twin cartridge into the Gun. Remove the (2) black half-moon shaped stoppers. Fix the mixing
nozzle tube with the retainer nut. Operate the gun and discard the initial 1-2 inches of flow from
nozzle. Inject the grout directly into the prepared clean hole. REMINDER: Make sure the hole is
free of concrete dust and debris so the grout forms a better bond.
Bolt Placement
Push the rod to the bottom of the hole and rotate it to assure total "wetting". Hold in place,
undisturbed, until gel occurs, usually within minutes, depending on the ambient temperature at
the time of installation. Do not disturb the anchor for at least one (1) hour. After the
material has cooled it will have 50 to 60% of its ultimate strength. Full cure will be in 24 hours.
Shelf Life
Shelf life of KELIGROUT™ 101-P is 6 months from date (lot number) which is stamped on the
cartridges . Grout should be stored at 70°F (21°C), and out of direct sunlight.
Storage temperatures should never exceed 85°F (30°C).
Shipping
When shipping Keligrout always use D.O.T. # UN1133 for Flammable Liquid.
Installing in Hot Weather
Keep Keligrout cool until immediately before using. An insulated cooler, (and a little ice on hot
days), will do a good job. Do not let cartridges get wet. Keep containers of out of direct sunlight.
Installing in Cold Weather
Keep anchors, rebar and Keligrout warm (70°F) until ready to use.
A 100 watt bulb enclosed in a lockup box or insulated cooler works well at the job site.
Material can also be warmed under a compressor engine's cover or in a truck cab.
CAUTION
Solvents for Keligrout are highly flammable and volatile.

DO NOT SMOKE OR USE NEAR OPEN FLAME OR SPARKS.
MSDS sheets available on request.

Volume
Always drill an exact depth hole for the needed embedment. Gantrex provides approximately
twice the amount of adhesive required to anchor each bolt to the specified embedment. These
amounts can be easily determined using displacement formulae.

If you get less yield than the chart above shows, check for these causes:
Hole is too deep. Resin lies beneath anchor that "hangs" from nut put on
before installation.
Too much resin was pumped into the hole. The anchor displaced surplus
resin that has over-flowed out the top of the hole.
Too large a diameter hole was drilled. Always follow instructions

as to diameter.

for pedestrians and for vehicle wheels.
The Trench Infill - developed by Gantrex - is based

on a resilient material made of selected recycled
rubber bonded with polyurethane.
Main features:
• Elimination of tripping hazards for pedestrians

• Reducing the impact on vehicle wheels and tyre
wear and tear
Thanks to an appropriate design, the

GANTREXTM Trench Infill allows for
other interesting features:
Rust can be limited by:
• Preventing water discharge being clogged

by dirt
• Allowing continuous ventilation
Inspection & maintenance are facilitated by:
• Protecting the fastening system and the

painting system against shock and damage
• Removing and reinstalling quickly and

easily the covers where necessary
Product Specification
GANTREXTM Trench Infill is specifically designed

to fill crane runway trenches:
• Complete filling protects pedestrians

• The choice of resilient material allows the
traffic of vehicles
• Easily manipulated elements allow quick
permanent access to the trench
Trench Infill sizes and models
Pedestrian traffic
One-component infill resting directly on the

bottom of the trench and on the foot of the rail.
High duty traffic
One-component infill with large working section to

resist against vehicle wheel loads
The GANTREXTM Trench Infill is made of up to 1200 mm long components; other dimensions
depend on the rail and trench sizes, please consult Gantrex.
Component material

Crane girder
tieback
assemblies
What is a tieback?
When a crane travels down a runway, it
generates vertical, longitudinal and lateral
forces. The lateral forces go from the crane
wheel into the web of the rail, are transferred
to the crane rail clips through the rail flange
and from there into the crane girder. These
forces have to be transferred from the crane
girder to a building column, located at the end
of the girder, and into the foundation.
A tieback is the connection between a girder

and a building column that facilitates the
transfer of these forces.
Traditional tiebacks
In the past, tiebacks were manufactured
from channels or angles and formed rigid
connections between the crane girder and the
building column. Other methods included the
use of horizontal plates with slotted angles or
vertical diaphragms, again rigid connections.
Unfortunately, when a crane was in the

middle of the girder span, it caused the girder
to deflect vertically and the girder ends to
rotate. Further as the crane passed over the
crane column, supporting the girder, it also
caused the crane column to deflect.
The rigid connections could not handle

the complex stresses caused by the girder
rotation and deflections and failed in
fatigue. Stronger plates and angles simply
transferred the failure to another location.
Forces imposed on the tieback
• Girder deflections of L/1000, or other chosen allowable bending limits between the support
columns cause top flange compression. This deflection results in girder end rotation in the (Z)
direction.
• Side thrust of the crane generated by trolley movement, crane skewing, and imperfect rail
alignment cause girder end rotation in the (Y) direction.
• Vertical loading of the crane directly above the girder column support will result in compression
of this support relative to the building column in the (X) direction.
The Gantrex Solution

To overcome the problems of the traditional tiebacks, GANTREX™ Tiebacks incorporate a steel
link with bearings at each end. The bearings are life time lubricated and require no maintenance in
normal day-to-day operations.
The link design allows the forces to be transferred rigidly into the column while the bearings provide
flexibility to accommodate the girder deflection and end rotation.
GANTREX™ Crane Girder Tiebacks, supplied

only as complete assemblies with crane girder
and column brackets, are the proven solution
to accommodate flexural movements without
fatigue, whilst providing the necessary load
transfer to the building column.
The assemblies are custom designed to suit

your crane loading and building configuration
and can be used for new construction or runway
reburbishment.
For multiple industries
Multiple industries and specific applications
for those industries use GANTREX™ Tieback
Assemblies such as:
• Aluminum smelters – cast house, pot lines,

anode bake building, etc.
• Power plant – turbine house cranes.
• Steel plant – Furnace bay, hot and cold

mills, pickling and annealing lines, slab yard,
coil storage, shipping, etc.
• Automotive
• Railway
• Industrial building manufacturing
Our team of 300 Gantrex crane rail specialists worldwide will guide and offer the tieback
assemblies best suiting your needs with the support of our Technical Department’s design
calculations, including crane loading, duty cycles, structural conditions and ease of installation.
Gantrex tieback assembly styles
There is an infinite variety of building column sizes and crane girders. The layouts also vary from plant
to plant. Based on these layouts, Gantrex provides different assembly styles, customized to suit specific
needs. Tiebacks also fall into two categories – single and double:
The normal tieback, placed at a location between two adjacent girders, consists of one bracket each
for the two girders, connected with two links to a common bracket on the column. This is considered a
double tieback.
If there is limited space, between the column and the girder, single tiebacks are mounted to the sides
of the column. Single tiebacks are also used for runway end girders or where a continuous girder bridges
a building column.
Typical GANTREX™ Tieback Assembly configurations:
Assembly 1 Assembly 2 Assembly 3
Assembly 4 Assembly 5 Assembly 6

TrenchLok™
Cable Protection System
Gantrex’ cable protection system
TrenchLok™, efficiently and economically
protects cranes’ power cables from damages
and problems caused by crossing vehicular
traffic in ports and steel mills.
When the crane travels, power cables

unwind from cable reels and are laid down
in a trench. The TrenchLok™ system consists
of a continuous semi-flexible belt, made of
a steel reinforced rubber, which lies over a
corrosion-resistant steel channel cast in the
quay. The belt is fixed to the quay surface
along one edge, while the other remains
free to be lifted in vertical position by a belt
lifting device fitted to the crane. The belt
returns to its closed position as soon as the
crane has passed.
Protection first
The TrenchLok™ system provides protection for the cable, from
passing vehicles and pedestrians.
The cables are protected against impacts of crossing vehicles,

but also sheltered against debris entering the trench and
adverse weather conditions.
It also eliminates tripping hazards for pedestrians.
Gantrex offices, staffed with qualified and trained technical

personnel, are located on all continents and available to
provide local application support and service in all industries
Key features
The TrenchLok™ system provides an ideal cover to operate

in all types of facilities seeking cable protection from
rubber-tired vehicles and pedestrians. This system boasts
many advantages:
• Maintenance free;
• Easy to install;
• Suitable for most all container handling vehicle traffic
• Full operational security;
• Free of alignment problems;
• Free of crane speed limitations;
• Easily adaptable to the system in place.
General characteristics
The Gantrex’ cable protection systems are supplied in two different designs:
- TrenchLok™
- TrenchLok™HD
The standard TrenchLok™ is designed for light vehicles and pedestrian traffic. Alternatively,
TrenchLok™HD allows heavy vehicles traffic and their operations over the belt.
The belt is engineered with high transversal rigidity to support all types of pneumatic-tired vehicles
passing over, but it must also possess sufficient longitudinal flexibility to allow the belt to be lifted
into the vertical position.
The belt surface is specifically designed to avoid wear and tear of crossing rubber-tired vehicles.
The TrenchLok™ belts, both standard and HD, are delivered in rolls of 50 meters.

Overhead
Cranes
Of Critical Importance
Overhead Cranes that run on rails attached
to steel girders are among the hardest
working machines in their plants. Whether
it’s steel & aluminium works, utility,
automotive or general manufacturing
plants, these cranes are typically critical to
the process and must continue operating
without interruption if a plant is to remain
viable. Costly down time caused by rail
issues is not acceptable.
Boasting more than 45 years of experience

and unparalleled references, Gantrex has
implemented its solutions around the world,
and has become the industry market leader.
Our 300+ staff working in four production

centers and 19 sales & services centers allow
Gantrex to work hand in hand with you to
provide application specific solutions and
installation services for your new or existing
installation.
Design and Application
Crane operation imparts various and dynamic
loads to the rails via the rail-to-wheel interface.
All of these forces are transferred from the rail
to the support structure, then to the columns of
the building. Left uncontrolled, these forces will
eventually cause damage to all of the components
in the load path.
From its inception, Gantrex has been providing a better way to limit and control these forces through
soft-mount technology. Since these forces cannot be eliminated, the use of components designed
specifically for crane runways and trolley rails have helped direct those forces in a way that reduces
shock and vibration, while controlling alignment and providing a predictable path to nearly eliminate
the fatigue damage caused by crane operation.
Gantrex soft-mount rail support systems, which

include rail pad, adjustable rail clips, crane girder
tiebacks and hydraulic bumpers, along with
properly selected rails, will improve the operation
of even the most demanding overhead cranes.
Your local Gantrex team member will work with
you in the selection and supply of your optimal
solution.
State of the Art Solutions & Benefits
Overhead crane runways details are often overlooked, and as a result the maintenance and
repairs to the runway and the crane itself are often accepted as the norm due to lack of
attention to these details. But there is a better way; by treating the cause rather than the
symptoms. Gantrex solutions increase the reliability and productivity of this area of critical
importance.
Gantrex solutions involve the latest technology
in crane and specialty rail track components and
services, including:
• RailLok™ adjustable crane rail clips which support

installation and maintenance of critical rail tolerances while
allowing for longitudinal rail float.
• RailLok™ crane rail pad which reduces stresses into the runway
structure while minimizing shock, vibration and noise to critical
crane components and the surrounding operational area.
• Gantrex crane girder tiebacks assemblies which

accommodate crane girder deflections, eliminating the
fatigue damage caused by these deflections while properly
transferring forces into the building columns.
• Oleo™ hydraulic crane bumpers providing controlled crane

deceleration while reducing damaging impact forces.
• Rail selection and supply : via its global experience,

direct access to rolling mills and its distribution network,
Gantrex can provide the most efficient rail solution for your
application.
• Installation services : Gantrex specially trained installation

teams can provide any number of services to suit your
application and local market conditions including turnkey
installation, rail welding services, rail surveys and inspections
or supervision.

implemented its solutions around the world and
has become the industry market leader. Our
300+ staff will work locally with you to provide
tailor-made products and services, enabling
Gantrex to be ON TRACK. WITH YOU.
Whether you are designing a track for manually

operated Rail Mounted Gantry Cranes (RMGC)
or driverless Automated Stacker Cranes (ASC),
the design and installation of the rail track is
key to the successful operation of the cranes.
Especially with automated cranes, traveling at
increasing speeds up to 240 m/min and using
an automated guidance system, the tolerances
of the rail and the supporting foundations are
critical to maximizing efficiency and reducing
operational downtimes.
.
A crane track solution to suit your foundation
When designing the rail track for any rail mounted gantry crane, it is important to make an analysis of investment
cost versus maintenance cost, not only of the rail system but of the entire civil foundation of the rail yard. Gantrex can
propose a variety of designs for the gantry crane runway to suit the type of crane and the underlying foundation either
for piled foundation, un-piled concrete slab or a ballasted track design.
Whilst a ballast track design requires

the lowest upfront investment, it
does not always provide the optimal
cost of ownership once you factor
in maintenance requirements (e.g.
frequency and cost of ballast tamping)
and effects on operational efficiency.
On the other side of the spectrum, a piled crane beam provides

the most solid foundation with the least settlement (and therefore
maintenance) but comes at a much higher investment cost.
If a compromise needs to be made on the investment

cost, and the soil condition allows, the rail could be
supported by a concrete slab without piling. In this
case, the settlement of the underlying soil needs to be
calculated and if acceptable, the settlement could be
overcome by using an adjustable rail chair to bring
the rail back within operational tolerances. This will
increase operational maintenance costs, but keep
investment costs in check.
Rail system design
Gantry cranes are vital to the operational processes
in any industrial environment, so it is important to
correctly design and install a crane rail system that will
ensure operating at maximum efficiency and without
expensive downtime.
Every project requires a bespoke design, and Gantrex

can assist end users, crane companies and engineering
companies in the decision process of selecting the right
crane rail system design for any application.
The use of soft mount components designed specifically for

crane runways have helped direct those forces in a way that
reduces shock and vibration, meanwhile controlling alignment
and providing a predictable path to nearly eliminate the
fatigue damage caused by gantry crane operation.
Gantrex has always been at the forefront of crane rail

technology, most recently with the development of its patented
RailLokTM rail clips and rail pad, specifically designed to ensure
a proper rail-clip contact and prolong the overall life of the
crane rail system.
Gantrex’ solutions involve the latest technology in crane and specialty rail track
components and services, including :
• RailLok™ adjustable crane rail clips which are easier to install and help
maintain critical rail tolerances while allowing for controlled longitudinal
rail float.
• RailLok™ crane rail pad which reduces stresses into the runway structure
while minimizing shock, vibration and noise to critical crane components and
operational area.
• Continuous and intermittent soleplates designed to suit the operating loads and
conditions of the application, including GANTREX® Adjustable Chair support
system, providing for vertical and horizontal post-installation adjustment to
accommodate foundation settlements.
• GANTREX™ cement and epoxy grouts which fully support the rail to eliminate
high impact forces and allow for proper load distribution.
• Oleo™ hydraulic crane bumpers providing controlled machine deceleration

while reducing end forces and potential damage at the end of rail travel.
• Rail selection and supply via its global experience, direct access to
rolling mills and its distribution network, Gantrex can supply the most

Crane
rails for
Shipyards
Multiple solutions for
multiple applications
Shipyards are places where ships are built,
maintained and/or repaired. Ships can vary
in size from personal sailing boats to large
container ships designed to travel around
the globe. Shipyards can be equipped to
operate on vessels both on- and off-shore,
and different technologies for transferring
vessels on-shore are in existence. The
different areas within the shipyard require
different rail solutions.
The overall Marine design includes the civil

design of the various areas, which will include
individual load conditions and may include
civil expansion joints to accommodate thermal
expansion.
Gantrex liaise with the designers to ensure the

rail systems are appropriate for the individual
site as they vary significantly according to the
loads and the environment.

implemented its solutions around the world,
and has become the industry market leader.
Our 300+ staff work locally with you to provide
specific solutions and installation services for
your new or existing installation, enabling
Gantrex to be ON TRACK. WITH YOU.
Generally, the rail applications can be identified,
starting with the process of elevating the vessel
out of the water, which could be by a shiplift or a
slipway.
When the vessels are transferred to the land the

carriages are moved using either a single or dual
level system.
Additional to these major applications, crane

rails are also found in maintenance buildings
supporting EOT cranes, on the ground floor, for
the Goliath gantry cranes of ship block assembly
and the portal jib/level luffing cranes of ship
outfitting, or as runway of floating dock cranes.
Ship lifting
Shiplifts
Vessels are lifted in & out of the water vertically by the use of a shiplift with a number of hoists, and
transported to to the dry berths on trolleys or cradles.
The lift platforms are normally articulated to allow for deflection under load. The rail system is designed
to suit the projected deflection and so it is typically shimmed to the design unloaded position, and
secured with hard clamps on welded studs. Under load the platform deflects, and the rail system is
designed to ensure a smooth transfer to the landside system.
Slipway
A slipway is a ramp on the shore by which
vessels can be moved to and from the water.
Rails are installed at a slope and care should
be given to longitudinal rail movement due to
gravitational and braking forces. Rails can be
installed on concrete foundation, steel girder,
or a combination of both. Different solutions
are available depending on the foundation, and
special attention should be paid to corrosion
protection in the tidal area.
Transfer Systems
The transfer area is where the boats are transported, on trolleys or cradles, to or from construction
and maintenance berths and buildings. This zone can be built in a single or double level, each with its
specific design for the rail system. Special attention should be paid to the rail transition areas between
the shiplift, carriages and the dry berths.
Single Level Transfer

The normal single level system is where rails are
installed at ground level with cross overs to provide a
system that allows the transfer of carriages from sea to
land and then at 90 degrees. This means the vessels can
be moved around the yard with maximum flexibility
use.
Dual Level Transfer

In some yards the transfer is carried out at
two levels, where the vessels are transferred to
specific dry berths. These could be washdown,
painting or welding areas.
Dry Docks and Dry Berths

A dry dock is a narrow basin which is flooded or drained to allow one vessel at a time to be
located on a dry support; the dry berths are the large platforms at quay level where many ships
can be parked. The Gantry and Jib Cranes are installed on concrete or steel beams, supported on
a steel girder or concrete foundation. Each application requires a specific solution.

INNOVATIVE DRIVE FOR
THE NEXT GENERATION PORTS
In the last 25 years the size of the largest container ships
has nearly tripled, to now reach the capacity of 20,000
TEUs. If not already done or underway, terminals must
adapt the size of their cranes to the size of the ships,
by offering more productive, cost-effective, faster and
higher equipment with longer booms.
The latest generations of cranes are more susceptible

to vibration and oscillation and generate the need
for increased stability of the rail support (clips and pad),
an issue too difficult to sustainably resolve by the past
technology of soft-mounted fixing devices. RailLokTM
clips and pads are the new generation of crane rail
fixings engineered by GANTREX to address the problems
caused by the new generation of
STS cranes.

READY FOR ULTRA LARGE
CONTAINER VESSELS
The size of container cranes has more than
doubled since the first container cranes were
built in the late 1950s. Over the years
Ship-to-Shore cranes (STS) have been updated
and upgraded with twin-lifting capacities and
increased productivity requirements that have
resulted in higher duty cycles, trolley speeds and
accelerating & breaking forces. This has led to
higher expectations of the trolley rail systems.
RailLokTM clips and pads are the new generation

of fixing devices engineered by GANTREX to
reply the market demand for more reliability

Stackers
Reclaimers
Of Critical Importance
Stackers and Reclaimers that handle limestone,
coal and other bulk materials are crucial to the
processing of mined and other loose material.
Whether piling & storing minerals or reclaiming
to prepare for shipping, costly down time caused
by rail issues are not acceptable.
These machines typically run on rails supported by

concrete foundations and impart dynamic loads
to the rails via the wheels. Concrete supported
runway details are often overlooked and, as a
result, the maintenance and repairs to the runway
and the machine itself are often accepted as the
norm due to lack of attention to these runway
details.
Design and Application

Stackers & reclaimers often have multiple rails
of different sizes, as the wheel loads are not
evenly distributed along the machine. Wheel
forces are transferred from the rail to the
support structure beneath. Left uncontrolled,
these forces will eventually cause damage to all
the components in the load path. Improper
support can lead to misalignment, rail breaks,
soleplate bending or premature grout failure.
The use of components designed to control

wheel load forces to reduce shock and
vibration, will maintain rail alignment and
provide a predictable path to eliminate the
fatigue damage caused by high vertical wheel
loads produced by heavy machinery operation.
GANTREXTM soft-mount rail support systems,
along with properly selected rails, will improve
the operation of even the most demanding
stacker or reclaimer.
Gantrex is with you from the beginning to help design
the rail system and choose the correct materials for the
application. Boasting more than 45 years of experience
and unparalleled references, Gantrex has implemented its
solutions around the world, becoming the industry market
leader. Our 300+ staff working at our production sites and
