|Rail Joints

Rail Joints are also called railway fish plates or joint bars. It is a kind of accessory used to connect and fix rails. It is usually used at the joints of railway tracks to improve the stability and load-bearing capacity of the track. Its shape is similar to a fishtail, hence the name “fishplate”. Fishplates are usually made of high-strength steel and are fixed to both sides of the track by bolts. They play the role of connecting the track, reducing the impact of the rail gap, and improving the overall strength of the track.

The main function of rail joints

Connecting tracks: used to connect two rails together to ensure the continuity of the track.

Dispersing stress: reducing the impact force when the train passes through the joint, reducing rail wear and damage.

Improving stability: enhancing the overall rigidity of the track and reducing the displacement of the track due to temperature changes or train vibrations.

Easy maintenance: The fishplate connection method is easier to disassemble than welding, which is convenient for track maintenance and replacement.

Common types of fish plates

Ordinary fishplates: suitable for the connection of standard tracks.

Insulating fishplates: used for electrified railways to prevent signal interference.

Special-shaped fishplates: used for connecting rails of different models or specifications.

Fishplates are an indispensable and important component in railway engineering and are widely used in railways, highway tracks, mine tracks, and other fields.

Glory Rail specializes in providing rail joint products for light rail, heavy rail and crane rail. In addition to supplying standard rail fishplates, it also supports customizing special specifications of fishplates according to drawings provided by customers to meet the needs of different rail systems.

In addition, the company provides a variety of fishplate surface treatment processes, such as blackening and galvanizing, to enhance the anti-corrosion performance and service life of the fishplate, ensuring its reliability and durability in various environments.
