Caboose Industries #109R HO/S Ground Throws (Rigid Type) Rigid ground throws are fully-functioning stands that require the hobbyist to supply a spring link between the slidebar and turnout throwbar. Rigid models are recommended when the ground throw must be mounted some distance from the turnout; normally, ground throw motion is transmitted via a spring wire running through a tube to the turnout mechanism. All Caboose Industries ground throws are molded of strong, self-lubricating black Delrin. An external cam provides maximum life and travel for each model. The ingenious design provides a positive lock in both straight and curved directions of throw, effective from 10° above horizontal to the full down position. A detent assists in holding the handle horizontal for installation purposes.
Caboose Industries ground throws are useful in a variety of scales and applications. All Caboose Industries ground throws are available in sprung and rigid configurations.
