Genesis
The insulating Ultra Short Gliding Hanger is the latest product development by KRUCH. In 2008 KRUCH developed this product in its second successful cooperation with the Norwegian rail operator JBV (Jernbaneverket).
Appliance
The Ultra Short Gliding Hanger is a hanger solution for system heights between 45mm and 100mm and is available in different stepped sizes. It is used on track sections where the system height is reduced dramatically and a different hanger solution is required, for example under bridges etc.
Know-How
While developing the Ultra Short Gliding Hanger KRUCH took all its customer requirements into account. The hanger is compatible with all grooved contact wires and enthuses users by the great ease it is installed with. Previous solutions consisted of many partly very small pieces (washers, nuts, etc) which had to be assembled on site, often under difficult conditions such as cold whether. The Ultra Short Gliding Hanger by KRUCH consist of only one part and a screw, to ensure that it can also be mounted without taking of ones working gloves. Only one tool, a 17mm spanner, is required. The hanger is made of stainless steel and is built very light to ensure the best possible catenary dynamics.
The messenger wire is protected by a plastic sliding shoe.
Conclusion
With the development of the Ultra Short Gliding Hanger KRUCH has once again presented a product which leaves nothing to be desired. The hanger is robust, light and reusable. The short installation time reduces the overall life cycles cost once again.
