Cleveland Tramrail®
Monorails, Underhung
Bridge Cranes and Replacement Parts
Cleveland Tramrail was acquired in 2002 by
Gorbel, Inc. The brand has been an
icon in the overhead material handling world
since the early 1900's and the product is as
important and viable today as it ever has
been for the right applications.
Met-Con Crane Division can assist you with
parts and new system designs for your
projects.

Tramrail is a patent track (or patented
track) profile that resembles I-beam.
The important difference is that the rail is
manufactured from high carbon alloy steel
joined by a carefully controlled welding
process which means greater strength, higher
rigidity and greater load carrying capacity
and safety.
The lower section flange is rolled from
high carbon billet and welded to a
structural steel web and top flange. The
result is increased load carrying capacity
with easier movement and the raised
profile prevents peening resulting in
increased track life.
One of the most useful design features of
Tramrail patented track is uniform width
which is maintained over a wide range of
beam depths and carrying capacities allowing
standardization of trolleys, end trucks,
interlocks for monorails or bridge
interlocks, electrification attachments and
other accessories.
The precision manufacture of Cleveland
Tramrail allows more accurate and faster
installation.
