Advantages
Cut To The Profile
Whether the rail is UIC 50, UIC 54, UIC 60 or S49/S54, the adapter is made for that profile. The machine seats without play and holds through the cut.
One Adapter, Two Profiles
S49 and S54 rails share the same adapter, so two profiles need only one stock line.
Coded By Machine
The 915/925 and 960/965 bodies use separate part families. Confirming the model at order time removes the wrong-part risk.
Ships As A Set
Every part needed to mount the machine arrives together, so nothing is waited on and the fit-up finishes in one go.

Features
- Separate sets for UIC 50, UIC 54, UIC 60 and S49/S54 rail profiles
- One adapter covers both the S49 and S54 profiles
- Distinct part families for RailMAB 915/925 and RailMAB 960/965
- Supplied as a set: every mounting part arrives together
- Gives the machine a repeatable seat on the rail
- German BDS manufacture, matched to the RailMAB series
On a rail, what actually holds the machine is not the magnet but the adapter. A rail head and web give a magnetic base no flat surface to sit on, so both the seating of the machine and its position through the cut depend on adapter geometry. That is why the BDS adapters are not one universal part: each rail profile has its own set, covering UIC 50, UIC 54, UIC 60 and S49/S54. S49 and S54 share a single adapter, so those two profiles need only one line in stock. The second decision is the machine body. RailMAB 915/925 takes MABZAS49S, MABZAS50U, MABZAS54U and MABZAS60U; RailMAB 960/965 takes MABZAS254S, MABZAS250U, MABZAS254U and MABZAS260U. The two families are not interchangeable, and a 960-series adapter will not fit a 915 body. Ordering therefore needs two facts settled: the rail profile on site, and the RailMAB model in hand. Each adapter ships as a complete set, so the parts needed to mount the machine arrive together and nothing has to be chased on site. With the right profile, the machine seats repeatably and hole centres stay consistent along the track.
