Hydraulic Lubricators

  • Posted by Dora Szucs

Our range of hydraulic lubricators provides an economic and effective method for distributing grease to the rail.

Our PW Series hydraulic lubricator offers a number of specific advantages over mechanical lubricators. These lubricators can be embedded into the ballast in high traffic areas with restricted space such as stations and tunnels.
