We believe railroad relays are the lifeline of any railway system, which is why our remanufactured relays and switch machines are restored to meet the highest OEM specifications. More than 85% of the parts used in our railroad track maintenance equipment are new, ensuring dependable operation. From GRS, US&S, and Safetran relays to complete switch machines, our products are tested to meet strict quality standards before they leave our facility.
To minimize downtime, Patco offers a core exchange program that allows you to receive the remanufactured relays you need without service interruptions. Once your new unit is in place, simply send back the core for smooth, efficient turnaround. We can even convert your US&S FN16 relay into an FN16A using new contacts and coils, extending the life and reliability of your equipment.
Our team services and remanufactures every type of switch machine, including US&S M Series, GRS Model 5, and GRS Model 6. We also handle safety updates, such as servicing B1 units in line with the OEM Safety Notice. With decades of hands-on experience, Patco delivers equipment that performs as well as or better than new.
Since our founding, Patco has been dedicated to offering cost-effective alternatives to new equipment while maintaining uncompromising quality. Every piece of railroad track maintenance equipment is carefully rebuilt and tested by experts who know the industry inside and out. From relays and printed circuit boards to crossing bells, switch motors, and hot box detectors, our full-service electrical and mechanical facilities allow us to handle every stage of remanufacturing under one roof.
Our central U.S. location just north of Chicago makes shipping efficient for clients across the nation. More importantly, our reputation has been built on trust, service, and the ability to deliver equipment that railroads can count on for decades to come.
