Section 1: Overview and Safety
Loading Arm Overview
Racine Railroad Products designs and manufactures equipment primarily for the repair and new
construction of rail and railroad tie track maintenance.
The Loading Arm is used on rail already fixed to ties. It allows a load to be applied to the rail to assure
proper distance between the rails when under pressure. The loading arm can also be used as an Assist
Arm.
The Assist Arm is designed to quickly position the rail for fastening to the tie. It is often used on curves to
maintain the proper distance between rails.
The arms can be adjusted to different lengths to accommodate different rail positions. Isolated ends allow
for use near crossing and switches. The arms feature a rotary control valve for operating in a pushing or
pulling function.
