Endurance-XL
Highway-Rail Grade Crossings

ENDURANCE-XL Highway-Rail Grade Crossings are manufactured using a patented composite technology and engineered plastics formulation resulting in superior performance and extended service life in severe environments.

They are considered a premium crossing surface by State DOT’s and Class 1 railroads alike, and is readily substituted for concrete and rubber to provide unsurpassed performance.

Alternative Replacement

ENDURANCE-XL Crossings can be used in place of treated timber to extend service life and eliminate disposal issues.

Harsh elements and submersion in fresh or salt water have little or no effect on ENDURANCE-XL Crossings. They will not suffer a reduction in structural integrity due to insect damage, termites, road salt, freeze/thaw cycles or periodic contamination with oil, gasoline and most corrosive chemicals.
