These Type 700 buffers are multiple units of Type 70 buffers used in series – typically used as end stops for either rail or crane applications on both dockside and offshore applications. The Type 700 is now a popular choice for dockside cranes as these are becoming faster and larger and need a more robust buffer for energy absorption.
These buffers are traditionally used as end stops and made up of multiple Type 70 units which are housed in a casing. They can be either mounted on a fabrication or on a reinforced concrete block. These long stroke buffers are usually used in conjunction with a buffing trolley to protect them from damaging offset loads.
