Rail Nipping Bar

Aldon rail nipping bars are a specialized tool used in railway maintenance and construction to cut or "nip" sections of railway track. Typically made of high-strength steel and features a set of jaws that can be adjusted to fit around the rail, workers would first position the jaws around the rail to be cut. The bar is then lifted or pushed down, depending on the design, and the jaws are clamped shut, cutting through the rail.

Rail nipping bars are commonly used to cut small sections of rail or to trim the ends of rails to fit properly in the track. They are often used in conjunction with other tools, such as rail saws or grinders, to make precise cuts and ensure that the track is properly aligned and maintained.

One of the key benefits of our rail nipping bars is their ability to cut through rail quickly and efficiently, with minimal damage to the surrounding track or other components. They are an essential tool for anyone working in the railway industry, whether it's for maintenance, repair, or construction of new tracks.
