UniRail (previously known as the Hadrian Safety Rail) is a rigid,
extruded aluminium rail system developed for the marine market and pilot boats in particular. Functional yet good looking, the UniRail system provides continuous attachment via a four-wheel attachment carriage. It can be used both as a proactive restraining system for multiple users or a reactive system to arrest a fall.
The product has been designed for easy installation, and uses
anchorages, which are fixed to a vessel’s structure or its
stanchions whilst enabling the rail to float. This allows for thermal expansion and contraction as the temperature changes throughout the different seasons. A change in gradient and direction in both axes of the rail extrusion presents no problem, with complete continuous access and attachment guaranteed at all times.
UniRail can easily be retrofitted to existing vessels or structures or can be designed in before construction. Uniline can work with marine architects to provide technical drawings and assistance from the earliest stages and offer a worldwide installation and maintenance service.
UniRail meets all necessary marine safety standards and codes of practice, is CE marked and has been engineered to have a safety factor more than twice the minimum requirement of the European standard for safety anchors EN 795 Class D.
It is as approved as a fall arrest system for multiple operatives and, when used with a short lanyard enables worker restraint thereby preventing a man overboard situation whilst allowing total hands free operation.
