Collectors are of the sliding-shoe, self-cleaning type. They are made of hard copper alloy, set head springs. This provides self-adjustments for irregularities in the conductor and assures correct alignment at all times. The head spring is mounted on standard American monorail collector brackets which carry double coil springs for proper contact with the conductors.

Contact face of the shoe is contoured to allow for any possible misalignment of conductors at entrance to a movable section of track such as at switches and crane interlocks.

Collector shoes can be easily removed for replacement by loosening two bolts and disconnecting the lead in wire.
