UKM offers complete buffering systems in a variety of styles and arrangements for cushioning coupled commuter railcar movements and providing passengers with the means to travel between cars.

Buffer plates are manufactured from corrosion resistant stainless steel, utilizing manganese steel bushings at all attachment areas, thus guaranteeing years of trouble free maintenance.

Buffer face plates can be customized with a variety of wear resistant polymers and metals. UKM is prepared to custom design buffer systems for new car construction and retrofit programs.

Using the stem or shear mounted versions, the buffer plate, deployed under constant pressure with its mated component on the adjoining car, provides surface area for crossover walkway plates thus allowing passengers easy and safe transference between cars.
