    Oleo's sliding friction buffer stops are designed to reduce damage and injury during rail impacts by absorbing energy through friction shoes that slide along the rails. The buffer stops contain an adjustable frame that houses friction shoes, which provide up to 50kN of braking force per pair. During an impact, the buffer stop frame transfers energy to the friction shoes, which then slide along the rails, gradually slowing the train. The buffer stops require no power or manual control and are suitable for a variety of rail applications and train specifications.
