Description Automatic Switches: 2,000/3,000-lb rating*- Replacement Pin, Bushing, and Shoulder Nut
- No more attempting to repair broken or bent bolts to correct angle.
- Replacement Pin design assures proper angle and position every time.
- Bushing and nut set spacing eliminates over-tightening of bolts.
- Pin replacement is as easy as replacing a bolt.
- Pin and bushing combination increases strength.
- Switching mechanism has fewer parts than the competition.
- Switching uses easier up and down motion to change gates, eliminating side-to-side motion to change gates.
- Heavy guards protect linkages against trolley damage.
- Stainless steel turnbuckle design on adjusting arm.
Divert Switches: 4,000-lb rating (Air or Hydraulic Options)
- Stronger one piece Cylinder Mounting Arm Bracket.
- New cleaner spring location.
- Gate design improves weight transfer throughout the entire switch.
- Stainless steel cylinders come in air or hydraulic options.
Gear Switches: 2,000/3,000-lb rating*
- NEW DESIGN: Offers lower gate travel path height reducing chain interference issues(patent pending design).
- Heavy-duty trolley stop (patent pending design).
- Heavier gear design.
All switches are patent-pending designs.
*Automatic and Gear Switches carry a 2,000 lb. rating when hung with hangers. Rating increases to 3,000 lbs. when welded off to a beam.
- Rails are waterjet cut using T1 Steel. Tthis increases strength and improves wear resistance.
- Waterjet cutting allows an increase in the amount of material under the gate pocket and accurate duplication of parts.
- Hercules rails are 1-3/4 in. while the industry standard is 1-1/4 in.
- Heavier gates offer increased gate dimension due to cutting the parts out of plate steel instead of using the standard 2-1/2 in. meat rail.
- Hercules gate is 1-1/2 in. while the industry standard is 1-1/4 in.
- 1 in. x 2-1/2 in. upright dimension.
- Uprights clock into rail for accurate line up and stronger welds - allowing weld on both sides of the rail. The industry standard design uses a face weld on one side only.
- Bolt-on bridge design matches up for true placement.
- Wider bolt pattern increases strength.
- Lower flange design places bolts below beam.
- Flange design gives clean welding surface.
Parts- Parts repeatability achieved by waterjet cutting, laser cutting and CNC machining.
- Easy-to-follow parts sheets only require basic switch information to order correct replacement parts.
- The interchangeability of off-the-shelf parts means faster turn-around and less down-time.
- Precision parts require less time to change out parts and complete repairs done to units hanging in place.
- Hercules Switches are made one design per style only, minimizing confusion and ordering errors.
- Faster delivery times.
- Hercules Switches are made to industry standard dimensions allowing use of existing hangers when replacing competitors switches.
- Ordering Identification Guide (located in the Downloads tab above) provides pictures to better identify switch style, type and dimensions.
