AREMA Standard Fish Plate

Product Introduction

AREMA Standard Fish Plate/ Joint Bars—precision-engineered rail fasteners for secure, efficient rail connections. Designed to replace labor-intensive rail welding, these fish plates simplify installation with bolts, nuts, and washers (all available from Glory Rail). Ideal for North American railway standards (AREMA 2007/2010/2018), they ensure long-lasting performance in freight, transit, and industrial rail systems.

Advantages

Long Service Life

Constructed from Q235B/55# steel with high tensile strength (360–645 MPa) and wear resistance.
Withstands dynamic loads in freight, transit, and heavy machinery applications.

Fast, Easy Installation

Eliminates complex welding—installs in minutes with fish bolts.
Reduces labor costs and downtime vs. traditional rail welding.
