Heating Plates

During winter periods, FLEXPATE products avoid the accumulation of snow and black ice on rail equipment. Our heating plates adapted to the dimensions of railway switches and other systems installed on the railway. These heating elements contribute to the good operation of trams and trains in extreme conditions.

Heating plates are specially designed for protecting railway switches from freezing. They are fixed by means of stainless steel clips. Several plates can be connected in series (15 maximum). Connections between plates are made by means of tubular connectors and heat-shrink sheaths. To ensure that these heating elements enjoy a long service life, we recommend using a control device.
