Zwrotnica SWE/40-01 rail turnout component, model SWE/40-01

Zwrotnica SWE/40-01 rail turnout component, model SWE/40-01 is a mechanical element designed for directing rolling stock between tracks within rail track systems. It is intended for use in the maintenance, replacement or installation stages of turnout assemblies and integrates into conventional track infrastructure where compatible dimensions and fastening methods are present.

Advantages

The SWE/40-01 turnout component provides a straightforward mechanical solution for switching routes on a rail layout, allowing controlled redirection of wheels with minimal additional systems. Its design focuses on mechanical reliability and compatibility with standard turnout assemblies, which supports efficient installation and replacement during track maintenance. Being a dedicated turnout element, it reduces the need for custom fabrication when matching standard turnout geometry.

Suitable for

• Rail track repairs and component replacement
• Construction of sidings and branch lines
• Routine turnout servicing and infrastructure refurbishment
• Temporary track layout modifications during works

Key specifications

• Product type: rail turnout component for directing rolling stock between tracks
• Model: SWE/40-01
• Mechanical function: switching/route diversion within track geometry
• Application environment: railway track infrastructure, outdoor use
• Compatibility: intended for integration with compatible turnout assemblies and standard track fastening systems

How to use

Install the SWE/40-01 as part of a turnout assembly following applicable railway engineering standards and the project’s track layout plans. Ensure track alignment, rail gauge, fastening points and support timbers or sleepers correspond to the component’s required geometry before fitting. Tighten fastenings and check mechanical clearances so that the moving parts operate freely. After installation, perform static and dynamic inspections, including a trial pass with an appropriate testing vehicle to confirm safe operation under load.

Usage recommendations

Use qualified track maintenance personnel for installation and servicing. Verify compatibility with existing turnout geometry and fastening systems prior to installation. Follow local railway authority regulations for inspection intervals and load testing to maintain safe operation of the SWE/40-01 turnout component.
