HVB Rail
The Groxx GRXRLS13 is a critical safety termination component designed for rigid rail fall arrest systems. It functions as a dynamic end-stop, preventing the traveler shuttle from exiting the rail track while simultaneously absorbing the kinetic energy of any low-velocity impacts at the line extremities.
Impact Energy Absorption: Engineered with an integrated elastic buffer structure, the GRXRLS13 dampens the force of a “rushing” shuttle, protecting the traveler’s internal bearings and the rail’s structural integrity from sudden shock loads.
Safety Limiting Function: Acts as a reliable mechanical barrier that ensures the mobile anchor point remains securely within the operational boundaries of the rail system.
High Load Resistance: Specifically designed to withstand the significant impact loads generated by heavy traveler units, such as the GRXRLS12 Horizontal Traveler, during operational transit.
M10 Structural Interface: Features a robust M10 threaded connection, allowing for high-torque installation and long-term vibration resistance.

Hybrid Build: Combines the high tensile strength and corrosion resistance of 304 Stainless Steel with a high-durability Silicone (Sil) buffer.
Resilience: The silicone component is UV-stabilized and temperature-resistant, ensuring the elastic properties of the bumper remain consistent in both extreme heat and freezing conditions.
Corrosion Protection: The stainless steel core is rated for 10 years of service life, making it ideal for architectural and industrial facade maintenance environments.
The GRXRLS13 meets the rigorous safety requirements for end-of-line terminations in permanent rail systems:
EN 795:2012 Type D: Certified as a safety component for rigid anchor lines (Rated for 1 user).
CEN/TS 16415:2013: Tested and compliant for multi-user safety systems, supporting a cumulative capacity for up to 3 users.
The GRXRLS13 Rail Bumper is a small but vital insurance policy for any rail installation. By replacing rigid metal-on-metal stops with an elastic silicone buffer, it extends the life of the traveler shuttles and reduces the acoustic noise and structural vibration associated with end-of-line impacts.
