Product catalog summary
Overview: The ELLCON-NATIONAL® Modular Hand Brake Model Series 35770 is designed for enhanced performance and extended service life in harsh operating conditions. It is AAR approved and available with either a long or short release lever.
Key Features:
  • Reduces ingress of road grime by 80%, preventing sluggish release.
  • Designed for high vibration service with 31% fewer components, reducing wear and eliminating main bearing failures.
  • Outlasts competitors' hand brakes by up to four times.
Comparison with Competitors: Unlike competitor hand brakes that allow road debris ingress, the Amsted Rail hand brake design covers the clutch area to reduce debris ingress, enhancing durability.
Company Background: Amsted Rail is a global leader in fully integrated freight car systems, providing unmatched performance and reliability since 1877.
Addressing Common Failures:
  • Quick Release Lever Failure: Reduced component count by 31% to prevent excessive free movement and vibrational wear.
  • Front Hand Wheel Bearing Failure: Replaces traditional ball bearings with composite plane bearings, eliminating common failures and doubling vibrational force endurance.
Contamination Resistance: The innovative design reduces openings by over 80%, offering superior resistance to road grime ingress compared to other hand brakes.
Preliminary Trial Data: After 1.5 years and over 63,000 miles in iron ore service, the modular hand brake showed exceptional performance, whereas traditional brakes typically last less than one year.

A D D R E S S I N G CO M M O N FA I LU R E S 72% of hand brakes require replacement due to mechanical failures that render them inoperative, according to AAR car repair billing data. Release Lever Failure EN hand brakes tackle a prevalent issue by reducing component count by 31%, preventing excessive free movement, and mitigating vibrational wear during motion. ▶ F ront Hand Wheel Bearing Failure The second leading cause of hand brake failure is addressed by replacing traditional ball bearings, used on most other hand brakes, with modern composite plane bearings. This innovation eliminates false...
