Embedded Track Systems

The L.B. Foster Company rail boot system allows for dynamic movement  of  the  rail  when  embedded  in  concrete,  asphalt  or other material to protect the surrounding materials. It also provides electrical isolation and noise, and vibration mitigation. Our product is designed to install easier than any other available rail boot system.

The complete system includes splice cuffs, adhesive, filler, tape, plates, clips and leveling beams. Leveling beams, which are used for mounting and holding the rail in position for track embedment, can be offered in steel or composite material. Configurations are available for a variety of rail sections.
