Under part number SLE86 from manufacturer PECO, straight electrofrog unballasted 258 mm switch.
Large curved right-hand deflection switch code 100 Peco SLE86 Electrofrog with a length of 258 mm, angles of 20.5° and 9.5°, radii of deflection of 1524 & 762 mm.
The Peco brand of track offers a wide range of track for building a model railway layout.
The British company is known for its rails in code 100 and 75 in HO 1/87th scale.
The track sections are made from maillechort (an alloy of copper and brass), materials that offer very high electrical conductivity and do not oxidise (easier cleaning of the rails).
Peco's HO 1/87th scale turnouts are available in two technologies:Insulfrog and Electrofrog.
The Insulfrog models feature a&strong>plastic core point (and therefore not electrically powered). These turnouts are recommended for model railway systems in analogue operation (conventional power supply via a transformer).
The Electrofrog models have a metallic core point (allowing better current pick-up from the locomotives). As a result, at low speeds, the locomotives run more smoothly. These turnouts are recommended for model train networks in digital operation (power supply by digital control unit).
The points deflection system allows the turnout to be motorised with several types of motor:
A table-top motor reference Peco PL11 which is placed next to the turnout on the track plan.
An under-table motor reference Peco PL1000/PL1001 which is placed below the layout support for discreet installation.
Peco straight turnouts in HO 1/87th scale come in three lengths: short, medium and long.
