Transit Conductor Rail

Our standard array of conductor rail profiles work well for many power rail operating envelopes. But if you need a special rail profile, we can design and manufacture it.  Our aluminum power rail provides low resistance and high conductivity unmatched by all-steel rails.  Our integrated stainless steel cap, either crimped-on or welded-on, provides wear characteristics superior to all-steel rails.

Our patented Welded Cap Rail gives you the conductivity and light weight of aluminum plus the wearability of stainless steel.  Handle more current and incur less voltage drop with this "green", energy-saving alternative to outmoded, corrosion-prone steel power rails.  Our tough stainless steel cap provides a long-wearing and consistent running surface.  This rail is superior to any other type of capped aluminum rails on the market.

Our Technical Services Group has extensive experience with all aspects of electrification systems for transit applications, including product engineering and design, proof of concept testing, system design, and system installation. We have the services you need to ensure a successful project, every time.

We developed an exclusive predictive maintenance tool to improve your transit conductor rail system performance. Once implemented, our diagnostic system moves down the railway, recording real-time information on power rail conditions, allowing you to find and diagnose power rail problems before they adversely impact your operation.

Conductix-Wampfler offers customized solutions to provide power to vehicles parked in maintenance facilities.  Economical "Stinger Systems" are available in many different designs. Solutions range from insulated conductor bar with vehicle connector drop leads to inexpensive festoon arrangements.
