Breif introduction:
No.16 coupler is specially designed for ‘Daqin’ coal transportation
hopper wagons. It could allow dump unloading without dismounting
the coupler. It adopt AAR S117-67 ‘F type interlock coupler
profile’.
Main technical features of No.16 coupler:
1. No.16 coupler could be coupled with 13B coupler, 17 coupler, AAR
E coupler, AAR E/F coupler, and AAR F coupler.
2. No.16 coupler is made of Grade E high strength low alloy steel.
The minimum static tensile failure loads of coupler body and
coupler knuckle are 4005kN and 3430kN.
3. The free clearance of closed couplers’ profiles is 9.5mm, less
longitudinal impact during train running, better longitudinal
dynamic performance.
4. No.16 couplers comply with TB/T 456 standard ‘Automatic coupler
buffer device for vehicle with coupler’.
5. The coupler head is equipped with an interlocking device, which
could realize automatic centering interlocking after coupled. This
centering could reduce the abrasion of coupler body and coupler
knuckle, improve the stress state of coupler body and coupler
knuckle, and prolong the service lifespan. It could also prevent
the coupler separating from vertical direction after coupled, help
to transfer the torsional moment of the tipper, and improve the
rotation performance of coupler;
6. The end surface of No.16 coupler is approximately circular,
reducing the rotation resistance between coupler body and coupler
support seat; the contact surface of coupler yoke and slave plate
is spherical, which can rotate 360° around the longitudinal center
line of the car body relative to coupler yoke, so that the wagon
could be unloaded without disassembling the couplers (only need to
turn the dumper), thus improving the unloading efficiency
significantly.

Why choose us?
FAQ:
Q1: Are you a trading company or a factory?
A: We are directly a factory and we manufacture and export railway
wagons and wagon parts directly.
Q2: Chinese railway gauge is 1435mm, but our country’s is 1000mm
gauge, will this be a problem for you?
A: Of course not, we are able to design railway wagon bogies of
different gauges like 1435mm, 1000mm, 1067mm, 1520mm or other
required railway gauges.
Q3: Why should I choose you, compared with your competitors?
A: Tieke Railway was transformed from wagons factory belong to
Chinese Railway in 2016 and the company have over 10 years’
experiences in manufacturing railway wagons and bogies; Now as
Tieke Railway is a private company and adopt modern market
management strategies, our services are flexible and more
considerate and our cost is more controllable.
Q4: What should I provide to get a quotation from you?
A: You could send your inquiry with detail drawings, product
photos, detail technical parameters or requirement description. A
complete requirement input is very important for us to provide an
accurate quotation to you.
