Product Description

Double Railroad Wheel Chock with Flag for Flush Rail

Aldon Company is the originator of the replaceable traction spur railroad wheel chock. Since 1955, we have offered high quality railcar wheel chocks. Don’t settle for a knockoff chock.

All steel construction railcar wheel chocks with replaceable rail biting spur for securing freight cars and locomotives. The traction spur can be rotated to a new edge or replaced when dulled for increased product life.

  • Works on all train rails from 75lb/yd to 141lb/yd and wheel diameters 28" - 44"
  • Handle Length: 28"
  • For Flush Rail ONLY

Note: Aldon's steel railcar chocks were successfully tested at the Association of American Railroad’s testing facility in Pueblo, Colorado to withstand more than 25,000 lbs. of drawbar pull. That's roughly equivalent to 32% of a typical SD-40 freight locomotive's drawbar pull.
