Multi-Function Gorilla Spike Puller/Anchor Spreader

New or Rebuilt & Upgraded Railway Spike Pulling/Anchor Spreading Machine

MODELS GSP-MF | GSP-MF-RBUG

An Innovative Multi-Function Machine That Pulls Spikes and Spreads Anchors Sequentially.

Get two machines in one with our multi-function spike puller. The highly productive dual-function workhead can keep the same pace as a single-function workhead, deliver increased productivity and improve quality.

The GSP-MF can either pull spikes, spread anchors, or perform both functions sequentially, in the same amount of time as a standard spike puller.

Our advanced CAN-BUS control system offers quick, easy adjustments at your fingertips, without leaving the comfort of the cab. Run the machine using the single-button automated cycle or keep it in manual mode, the choice is yours.

Reduce your acquisition costs, work time, daily maintenance, mobilization costs, and future capital overhaul expenses with two machines in one.
