Monorail Bumper
Groxx Rail Bumper | GRXRLS13 Elastic Safety Limiter
The Groxx GRXRLS13 is a critical safety termination component designed for rigid rail fall arrest systems. It functions as a dynamic end-stop, preventing the traveler shuttle from exiting the rail track while simultaneously absorbing the kinetic energy of any low-velocity impacts at the line extremities.
Core Performance Features
Impact Energy Absorption: Engineered with an integrated elastic buffer structure, the GRXRLS13 dampens the force of a “rushing” shuttle, protecting the traveler’s internal bearings and the rail’s structural integrity from sudden shock loads.
Safety Limiting Function: Acts as a reliable mechanical barrier that ensures the mobile anchor point remains securely within the operational boundaries of the rail system.
High Load Resistance: Specifically designed to withstand the significant impact loads generated by heavy traveler units, such as the GRXRLS12 Horizontal Traveler, during operational transit.
M10 Structural Interface: Features a robust M10 threaded connection, allowing for high-torque installation and long-term vibration resistance.
Technical Specifications
Feature
Specification
Model Number
GRXRLS13 (Ref: ADA2503070004)
Material Composition
AISI 304 Stainless Steel & Silicone (Sil)
Safe Load Capacity
12 kN
Safety Factor
1.5
Unit Weight
26 g
Dimensions (D x H)
ø25 mm x 31 mm
Material Science & Environment
Hybrid Build: Combines the high tensile strength and corrosion resistance of 304 Stainless Steel with a high-durability Silicone (Sil) buffer.
Resilience: The silicone component is UV-stabilized and temperature-resistant, ensuring the elastic properties of the bumper remain consistent in both extreme heat and freezing conditions.
Corrosion Protection: The stainless steel core is rated for 10 years of service life, making it ideal for architectural and industrial facade maintenance environments.
Compliance & Standards
The GRXRLS13 meets the rigorous safety requirements for end-of-line terminations in permanent rail systems:
EN 795:2012 Type D: Certified as a safety component for rigid anchor lines (Rated for 1 user).
CEN/TS 16415:2013: Tested and compliant for multi-user safety systems, supporting a cumulative capacity for up to 3 users.
The Groxx Advantage
The GRXRLS13 Rail Bumper is a small but vital insurance policy for any rail installation. By replacing rigid metal-on-metal stops with an elastic silicone buffer, it extends the life of the traveler shuttles and reduces the acoustic noise and structural vibration associated with end-of-line impacts.
