ADJUSTMENTS MADE EASY WITH NEW CONCRETE ROADBED

A major characteristic of the Fist-T system is that each rail is supported on a concrete block using a Fist clip in conjunction with a supporting assembly that has features that are designed to facilitate the making of vertical and lateral adjustments in the rails. This assembly is placed on the block in a recess, located diagonally with the rail.
