STRAIL B kerbstone
A sturdy wide kerbstone — quick to install, no subgrade work required
The STRAIL B kerbstone is engineered for efficient level crossing solutions where speed and flexibility matter most. It can be laid directly on a compacted ballast bed with minimal excavation and without precast foundation elements. This saves time, reduces additional work, and makes the system especially suitable for sites with tight schedules or limited construction options. Height and alignment can be easily adjusted.
No subgrade work required
Thanks to its smart design, the STRAIL B kerbstone reduces installation time while protecting the surrounding track area. It stands out for its stability, versatility, and the elimination of unnecessary construction steps.
- No excavation required in front of the sleeper head
- No concrete foundations needed, eliminating an entire construction layer
- Wide support surface for stable load transfer
- Ensures the adjacent track remains clear of speed restrictions during installation
- Height and position can be easily adjusted
- Works seamlessly with all STRAIL outer panels

Level crossing with inno and B kerbstone installed in just three hours
The increasingly tight track possession times in modern track construction require solutions that are not only robust, but above all quick to install. For this project, the choice fell on the efficient combination of the inno system, which is independent of sleeper spacing, and the B kerbstone, which requires no foundation. It took a team of four just three hours to install the entire 5.4-meter-long level crossing. Thanks to the B kerbstone’s foundation-free design, the track could be reopened to traffic immediately after installation.
