Rail & Transit Systems

Engineered Elastomer Systems for Light and Heavy Rail

Polycorp designs and manufactures elastomeric components that reduce vibration, control noise, and protect infrastructure for both light and heavy rail applications. Our products are trusted by transit authorities and freight operators worldwide to extend track life, minimize downtime, and improve passenger and community comfort.

Protection for Crossings and Embedded Track

Polycorp’s Railseal™ systems and Railboot protect rail infrastructure from vibration, impact, and environmental stress. Designed for embedded track and grade crossings, these components isolate the rail from concrete, reduce stray current, and minimize water ingress—extending service life and improving ride quality for light and heavy rail systems alike.

Vibration Control for Noise Reduction and Comfort

Polycorp rail dampers are engineered at source control installed on-track to enhance structure protection, and to reduce vibration and radiated rolling noise generated from the train travelling down track. These systems improve passenger comfort and help operators meet urban noise standards while reducing maintenance costs associated with vibration-related wear.

Track Isolation for Urban and Industrial Rail

Elastomeric noise and vibration pads provide resilient isolation between the rail and supporting structure, reducing the transmission of ground-borne vibration. These pads are engineered for long-term performance under repetitive loading and harsh environmental exposure.

Integrated Systems for Long-Term Performance & Protection

Polycorp’s embedded track systems combine elastomeric components with engineered profiles for superior load support, stray current isolation, and noise reduction. These systems simplify installation, enhance ride stability, and improve the longevity of embedded rail in transit and freight environments.

Encapsulation systems for special trackwork provide robust protection in areas of high mechanical stress such as switches, crossings, and turnouts. Using abrasion- and impact-resistant elastomers, these products safeguard rails and track hardware from corrosion, vibration, and heavy wear.

Durable Protection for High-Wear Rail Environments

Track jacket and enclosure systems provide robust protection in areas of high mechanical stress such as switches, crossings, and turnouts. Using abrasion- and impact-resistant elastomers, these products safeguard rails and track hardware from corrosion, vibration, and heavy wear.

Reliable Load Distribution and Alignment Stability

Polycorp fixation components distribute dynamic loads evenly and maintain alignment in demanding rail environments. These systems ensure smooth operation and structural stability across both light rail and heavy freight lines.

Effective Cleaning for Ballast Maintenance

Broom elements support efficient ballast maintenance by delivering consistent sweeping performance for track-cleaning equipment. Manufactured from durable, wear-resistant materials, they help maintain proper ballast condition and support long-term track stability.
