The 12-2 D-type connector is the standard link of pulley compensation systems: it joins the compensation rope to the counterweight stack and other tensioning components, transferring the full system tension between them.
Manufactured to TB/T 2075.12-2024, Fittings for overhead contact system of electrification railway — Part 12: Pulley compensation devices, the connector takes its name from the D-shaped cross-section of its connection face. The D profile centers the rope socket naturally and keeps the joint aligned under load. The body is forged for strength, and the bearing faces are machined so the connection turns freely without sticking.
The finished connector is hot-dip galvanized for long outdoor service, and its dimensions match the 12-1H pulley block, 12-3 double-eye rod and 12-4 tongue-eye rod of the same system.
Henan Chuangwit Railway Equipment Co., Ltd. supplies the 12-2 under CRCC certification within the complete TB/T 2075.12 compensation fitting range.
