Ultra Clipper
The Ultra Clipper is a self‑propelled, compact machine designed for installing and removing two rail clips simultaneously on a single rail. Workhead arms apply steady hydraulic pressure—rather than hammer impacts—ensuring the clip retains full holding power.
The Ultra Clipper can be used with a variety of workheads (sold separately).
- The Ultra Clipper can be used on 90 -141 lbs of rail
- Features an outrigger wheel assembly for stability, lessening operator fatigue
- Self-propelled hydraulic motor eliminates the operator from pushing the machine on an incline

- Workhead tools push the preset clips into the socket using steady pressure
- A versatile design that applies/retracts clips on concrete, wood, or steel ties with no workhead change out
- Simple hydraulic lever operation allows fast switching between apply and retract modes
