Production/Switch Tamper

Like new. Only better.

Nordco doesn’t just patch up imperfections. We give new life to your worn out machine. Our sophisticated frame requalification gives you a stronger, more robust tamper with a modernized cab with better crossing visibility. Proprietary designs and a little extra attention to detail offer improved safety features and simplified Workhead replacement, and all electrical and hydraulic components are completely replaced with new material. At 2/3 of the cost of a new machine, it doesn’t get any better than Nordco.

Superior switch performance

The 6700 produces superior performance in switch or turnout surfacing through the use of a Jackbeam that automatically clamps either the base or ball of the rail. We offer an optional extended Jackbeam with hooks that extend an additional 2-1/2" for use in long turnouts. 

Nordco remanufactured Workheads and Jackbeams

Every remanufactured 6700 includes Workhead and Jackbeam assemblies that are remanufactured using all new parts. Workheads are completely rejuvinated with all new cylinders, guide rods and bushings. Workhead Mounts are completely replaced with proprietary Nordco designs to allow for complete Workhead dismount within minutes.
