YJGQ-60 series hydraulic rail clamp

Feb 04, 2026

🛠️ Product Overview: YJGQ-60 Hydraulic Rail Clamp

The YJGQ series is an improved version of the standard YJG series, featuring a more robust structure and a "floating" mechanism to ensure even pressure distribution on the rail.

Model Number: YJGQ-60

Type: Hydraulic / Rail Clamp (Wheel Edge Brake)

Action: Normally Closed (Fail-Safe)

Braking: Spring-applied (Engages when hydraulic pressure is released).

Release: Hydraulic pressure releases the clamp.

Key Feature: "Floating" Structure. This design allows the clamp arm to self-adjust its angle, ensuring full contact with the rail head even if there is slight misalignment or rail wear.

📋 Key Technical Specifications

✨ Key Features

Fail-Safe Design (Safety): It operates on a "Normally Closed" principle. If there is a power failure or hydraulic leak, the spring force automatically engages the brake, ensuring the crane cannot roll away.

Floating Mechanism: Unlike rigid clamps, the "floating" design prevents point loading and ensures the friction block contacts the rail evenly, maximizing grip and minimizing wear.

High Reliability: Designed for harsh outdoor environments (ports, yards) with protection against dust, moisture, and salt spray.

Signal Feedback: Equipped with limit switches to provide electrical signals indicating the "Braked" or "Released" status, allowing for interlocking with the crane's control system.

Manual Release: Includes a manual release mechanism for maintenance or emergency operation.

🏭 Typical Applications

The YJGQ-60 is used in heavy industries where wind resistance is critical:

Port & Harbor Machinery: Large ship-to-shore cranes and mobile harbor cranes.

Outdoor Rail Cranes: Rail-mounted gantry cranes (RMG) and bucket wheel stacker-reclaimers.

Metallurgy: Outdoor cranes in steel mills.
