As an Aldon distributor, SafeRack’s brake-sticks, safety, and brake tools are designed to keep the operator at a safe distance when manually setting and releasing railcar handbrakes. Our telescoping brake sticks coming in two sizes and eliminate the need for the operator to climb ladders, especially in wet or icy conditions. It also keeps the operator from getting between the railcars.

In addition, brake sticks allow the user to operate retainer valves and to open and close the railcar coupler knuckles when connecting railcars. Retainer valves are mechanically operated valves controlling the operation of the air brakes of the railroad car.

Safe, easy to operate gangways – and a great company, too.

Everyone is very friendly and professional with me. I received updates on when the unit will ship from Customer Service and they worked with us on what carriers we want them to ship it with. Safety for the truck drivers using the gangways is important. They are easy to operate for all types of people. Springs are very easy to adjust. Foot lock lever seems to work well. I would recommend your product because it has been a good product for us and I really think that the customer service that goes along with a great product cannot be beaten. Good product and a good company to go along with it.

Todd Boland did a great job.

Very responsive. It was a good experience. Accessibility, tie-off points and its galvanized structure are all benefits.
