Description
Cembre AR260 Washer Kit – AR260D Installation Washer
The Cembre AR260 Washer Kit is the dedicated installation accessory required for correct extrusion of the Cembre AR260D double-sided rail web bush connection.
Cembre also identifies the kit as the HTEP/AR260WASHER. Specifically, it incorporates the Ø38 mm installation washer used during installation of the AR260D double contact.
The washer provides the correct support during hydraulic extrusion of the AR260D. As a result, installers can install the double-sided rail bush correctly through the 19 mm rail web hole.
Cembre AR260 Washer Kit Compatible Installation Equipment
Installers use the washer with compatible Cembre rail bush installation equipment, including:
- Cembre HTEP manual hydraulic installation tool
- Cembre B1300TEP-T battery hydraulic installation tool
- RHTEP-S rail bush installation head
- OG13.2 installation mandrel
Specifically, the washer is required for installation of the AR260D double-sided rail web connection and differentiates its installation setup from the single-sided AR60D.
AR260D Double Contact Installation
The AR260D provides two M12 cable connections from opposite sides of a single permanent rail web bush.
During installation, the AR260 washer provides the support required for controlled extrusion of the double contact using the RHTEP-S hydraulic installation head and OG13.2 mandrel.
Included with HTEP and B1300TEP-T
Cembre supplies this washer as standard with new:
- Cembre HTEP installation tools
- Cembre B1300TEP-T battery installation tools
In addition, Engineering Supplies supplies it separately. This suits customers requiring a replacement washer, spare installation kit or additional setup for existing Cembre rail connection tooling.
