SP2R Spike Puller Two Rail

Key Features

The SP2R – Spike Puller Two Rail includes the following key features:

  • Enclosed dual-operator, climate-controlled cab; optional extended cab (capacity = 7) available
  • A-frame pulling assembly over each rail
  • Claw-style pulling tools to handle line spikes and anchor spikes; optional Lewis bolt and hairpin spike work heads available
  • Cab-controlled hydraulic work head locks
  • John Deere Tier III diesel engine; optional Cummins engine available
  • Four-wheel, dual-axle, chain-driven propulsion system
  • 24 VDC, circuit breaker-protected, electrical system
  • Spring-applied, hydraulic-released brakes, with Cobra brake shoes and deadman switch
  • Integrated, positive locking, rail-to-rail turntable
  • Joystick controls

Adjust to different working conditions

  • Simply adjust the limit switches to set the claw height for different rail heights.
  • Quickly change the width of the claw opening at any time using a simple dial setting or use the automatic work head centering option.
  • Easily position inner and outer claws to align for different spike patterns.
  • Use the integrated turntable to easily reverse direction on the track.

Handle different spike types

Easily swap out the work heads in about one hour- in the field or the shop – to handle different spike types. Optional specialized work head assemblies for Lewis bolts and hairpin spikes are available.

Use fewer personnel carriers

The optional extended cab allows up to five extra crew members (total capacity = 7) to ride in the cab.  Fewer personnel carriers mean less equipment to maintain and less space needed on sidings for overnight storage.

Keep production levels high while maximizing spike reuse

Pull two spikes simultaneously from each side of the rail, for a total of four spikes at one time. Since claw fingers grasp spikes under the head while the work head assembly pulls straight up, spikes stay straight and re-usable.

Lower cost of ownership

Since the SP2R uses many of the same components as other Nordco machines, you can stock fewer maintenance parts on your parts wagon.
