Features & Benefits
Quick Assembly
One metre long sections are connected together using jointing pegs which allow for 1-3° of possible movement to follow gentle curves in the track.
Tamper Proof
MM RAILduct™ units can be secured against the threat of vandalism or theft with standard tamper proof locks and keys.
Fire Retardant
MM RAILduct™ won't catch fire and has low smoke properties.
Strong
MM RAILduct™ is designed with reinforced ribbing and twinwall design which ensures it meets pedestrian loadings.
Linear Ballast Anchor Points
Linear ballast anchor points secure the MM RAILduct™ unit into the surrounding material, meaning units are not displaced by the velocity of passing trains or vehicles.
Flexible
MM RAILduct™ is built with 3° of flexibility in the interlocking connection to match bends in the track. For more extreme bends, vertical and horizontal bends can be supplied.
Lightweight
Weighing under 10kg MM RAILduct™ offers significant health and safety advantages over traditional concrete troughing systems that can weigh over 90kg.
MM RAILduct™ is suitable for single person lift and install, enabling compliance with manual handling regulations. Being lightweight and easy to deploy results in considerable project time and cost savings.
How It Works
One metre long sections are connected together using jointing pegs which allow for 1-3° of possible movement to follow gentle curves in the track. Laying MM RAILduct™ is typically five times faster than traditional concrete units, thereby reducing the total cost of installation.
Materials
GRP
Glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) is a composite material, fibre-reinforced polymer made of a plastic reinforced by fine fibres made of glass. GRP has a high strength to weight ratio, high temperature range, high mechanical properties and is fire retardant. Additionally, GRP is also chemically insert and isn't susceptible to creep.
Locking
Covers can be locked and opened individually or as a combination of several covers and can be secured against the threat of vandalism or theft with standard tamper proof locks and keys.
Load Rating
MM RAILduct™ is suitable for installation in environments rated to Class A load rating (ultimate limit state design of 10kN) under the Australian Standard AS/NZ 3996.
This makes MM RAILduct™ suitable for areas accessible to pedestrians only.
