See how Westmor Industries uses fewer moving parts in loading arm
Westmor Industries manufactures rail loading arms for LP-gas and anhydrous ammonia transfer operations. The design features a reduction in the 90° swivels and only one 45° swivel, creating a less restricted flow, which generates a higher capacity flow rate.
The loading arm comes pre-assembled for easy installation. Built with one swivel for low maintenance, the unit swings out over a rail tankcar and back for storage.
For safety, the rail loading arms are designed with few moving parts and no spring tensioning. The unit’s emergency shut-off valve (ESV) is compliant with NFPA code.
The arms require minimum maintenance, needing greasing only once a year. Westmor offers 5- and 10-year maintenance programs for the hoses.
