Moltec International® supplies a wide range of standard and custom solutions used for the protection of wires and cables in the rail industry. Our GRIP LOCK ® product line includes specially modified non-metallic conduits, fittings, system supports and accessories that deliver proven quality and a long service life. Our solutions not only exceed standards but have been designed for use in the toughest environments in and around all rail applications.
Exterior Applications
Our heavy grade conduits are flexible yet very durable making them ideal for both static and dynamic outdoor applications. The GRIP LOCK ® conduit exhibits outstanding resistance to UV and weathering at low and high temperatures and remains flexible with exceptional mechanical resistance and impact strength. Our solutions surpass customer expectations in areas where other products fall short. The IP69K (NEMA 6P) fittings make for a smooth ride with shock and vibration proof connections underneath the railcar, on the railcar rooftop, for inter-car jumpers, couplers and bogies.
Interior Applications
Protecting wires and cables in passenger zones of people movers is accomplished with our selection of GRIP LOCK ® products that fully comply with the highest international flame, smoke and toxicity standards.
