Under normal working conditions, the Ultra-Track Pan system should last from 20 to 30 years in the field. Due to rugged conditions expected at rail sidings, Ultra-Track Pans are molded in nearly twice the thickness of standard containment products manufactured by UltraTech. The black color, combined with an ultraviolet (UV) ray inhibitor added to the polyethylene (LLDPE) resin, helps protect the system from harmful effects of the sun.
Without grates, each center track pan holds 113 litres and each side track pan holds 94litres. Each track pan grate displaces 22 litres of fluid. Therefore, each center track pan with grates holds 68 litres and each side track pan with grates holds 72 litres.
Ultra-Track Pans are connected together with bulkhead fittings. One (1) bulkhead fitting is used to connect each side track pan “end to end” and two (2) bulkhead fittings are used to connect each center track pan “end to end.” The patented bulkhead fitting design allows spilled fluids to travel from one pan to the next, thereby increasing capacity as the spill travels over the length of the Ultra-Track Pan system.
Ultra-Track Pans are virtually maintenance-free. Visual inspection of the sealing gaskets located between the rails and pans should take place every six (6) months.
The gaskets that seal between the pans and tracks are closed-cell polyethylene (LLDPE) foam. The closed-cell material will not soak up any fluid.
All of these items are made of polyethylene. Coupled with the polyethylene (LLDPE) track gaskets, the Ultra-Track Pan product line offers consistent chemical compatibility. Note: Standard gaskets for the bulkhead fittings are EPDM—other materials are available if necessary.
The all-polyethylene Ultra-Track Pans offer excellent chemical resistance for a broad range of acids, caustics, corrosives, solvent, oils, diesel fuel, etc. UltraTech’s engineering staff is available to review specific chemicals upon request.
All top surfaces of the major Ultra-Track Pan components feature a slip-resistant design. Grates have a raised, molded-in texture that is very similar to a diamond plate design. The inner surface of all center and side track pans has a surface that is similar to 80-grit sandpaper.

No effect.
Metal rake, shovel, sledgehammer, two 304mm bar clamps, two pieces of wood 25mm x 101mm x 1219mm two “slip sheets” approx. 254mm x 1524 mm and a utility knife are typically required. No heavy equipment required.
No. Gaskets and bulkhead fittings are standard components and are packaged inside each Ultra-Track Pan shipping container.
Note: If planning to install below grade piping, 76mm diameter bulkhead fittings to connect to piping must be ordered separately.
Each Ultra-Track Pan is boxed separately to assure they are protected properly during shipment. The modular units stack neatly on wooden shipping pallets via LTL or full truckload shipments, depending on the size of the order.
Yes. Center pans and side pans have molded-in recesses at their low points. The recesses are shaped like large “hockey pucks” and can easily be drilled out for 76mm diameter polyethylene (LLDPE) bulkhead fittings. (Why are there multiple pipe recesses moulded into each Ultra-Track Pan? The location and spacing of railroad ties along a set of rails are not entirely predictable. We have provided multiple pipe recesses to guarantee that at least one recess can be used for piping without disturbing any ties.
No. The pipe recesses give you the option to do so if desired. Many users are concerned only with capturing small spills and leaks and do not have the desire or need to pipe below grade.
Yes. As potential track pan projects move forward, our engineering staff will provide design assistance upon request.
Yes. The modular design of the Ultra-Track Pans allows them to follow along a curved track up to 12 degrees.
(Note: Rail weight is defined as the number of pounds per yard of rail length.) Ultra-Track Pans have been successfully installed on rails as light as 29 kg All rails greater than 29 kg. work very well with Ultra-Track Pans. Rails that are less than 29 kg. are not feasible as the rails are too short to allow proper clearance.
Railroad tanker cars typically range from 9m – 18m. Each Ultra-Track Pan is 1358mm long and can be configured to virtually any length desired.
Locomotives typically require an 18m track pan system.
