Battery-Powered Spike Driver

Drive railroad spikes and dog-head screws without hoses. Powered by the Milwaukee MX FUEL platform, SpikeForce drives most spikes in 3–5 seconds. An isolated, suspended housing, vibration-dampening handles, and an integrated anti-vibration system help minimize hand-arm fatigue.

A Safer and Easier Way to Drive a Spike

The SpikeForce battery-powered spike driver is lightweight, minimizes vibration to the trackworker’s hands, and removes tripping hazards by eliminating hydraulic hoses. With no setup time, just pull it from the truck and start driving spikes in any weather.

Designed for Track

Engineered from field feedback, the FTS spike-driving tip features optimized height, strength, and geometry for consistent performance—tested and approved by Class I and other railroads nationwide.
