For a crane project in Chile, supplying the rails was only part of the order. Alongside 1,069 metres of ASCE 85 rail, a Chilean crane supplier required fishplates manufactured to drawing and 3116 rail clips.
Glory Rail supplied the rails together with 82 sets of custom ASCE 85 fishplates and 4,256 sets of 3116 rail clips. The goods were dispatched from Tianjin, China, on February 4, 2026, bound for San Antonio, Chile.
Custom Fishplates: Following the Drawing, Not Just the Rail Designation
To ensure a secure connection between the ASCE85 rails, Glory Rail supplied 82 sets of matching fishplates.
Manufactured to suit the ASCE85 rail profile, the fishplates feature precisely machined bolt holes for proper alignment and fit during installation.
Accurate machining of rail accessories helps simplify on-site installation and supports the long-term reliability of the rail system.
One Order Covering Rails and Project Accessories

| Steel rail | ASCE 85 | 1,069 m |
| Fishplates | Custom-made to drawing for ASCE 85 rail | 82 sets |
| Rail clips | Model 3116 | 4,256 sets |
The fishplates were manufactured to the customer’s drawing, while the rail clips were specified by model. This allowed the custom connection components and fastening hardware to be included in the same supply order.
