Semi Permanent Coupler

High Strength Semi Permanent Coupler

The Sanrok semi-permanent coupler is designed to ensure a permanent connection of railcars, which in traffic, form a unit and therefore need not be separated unless in an emergency or in the workshop. The drawbars are connected by means of a muff coupling set that can be detached easily, thus allowing quick separation of the cars for repair. These couplers are used in EMU, MEMU and suburban rail coaches as well.

Each coupler is subjected to rigorous in-house testing, resulting in an extremely robust safety product that averts overriding of coaches.
