ERICO Helps Simplify Process of Removing Broken Screw Spikes in Concrete Rail Ties

ERICO has developed a cost-effective system for quickly and effectively removing a broken screw spike in a concrete rail tie.

ERICO has developed a cost-effective system for quickly and effectively removing a broken screw spike in a concrete rail tie. Spike breaks normally occur in the tie insert and under the tie plate, which traditionally require an expensive and time-consuming removal process. The Screw Spike Extraction Kit includes a CADWELD® mold, handle clamp and a control unit to initiate the reaction, thereby simplifying and expediting the extraction process. The kit is ideal for use with commonly used concrete tie screw spikes.
