Rail anchors are used to clamp on both sides of the rails. It is made of spring steel and is designed to eliminate orbital sliding or expansion or contraction.,it firmly fixs the rail the bottom to the tie plate to prevent longitudinal movement
Rail anchor is applied directly to the rail base and provides a large load-bearing on the rail base to prevent wear and cut, and ultimately extend the service life of the rail. Depending on the specific rail weight and base width, Rail anchor can be divided into two types: Drive on rail anchor and spring type rail anchor.
SUYU manufactures different types of rail anchor products. The anchors are used where the fastenings system requires an extra creep resisting arrangement. There are various shapes of the anchor which is made of rolled bars of various sections. When driven in the rail, the railway anchor grips the rail firmly and when set against sleepers, resists longitudinal movement of the rails caused by passing trains.
The quality parameters of our rail anchor are as per with the International Standards and all are readily available in a considerable quantity at all times.
Rail anchor can be divided into two types: Drive on rail anchor and spring type rail anchor.
1、Spring type rail anchor
Rail anchor is manufactured in one-piece construction for spring steel or equal, heat-treated and designed to eliminate creepage of track. The rail anchors provide a large bearing surface against both rail base and tie, avoiding undo cutting and wear, thus prolonging the life of wooden ties. The rail anchors are used in 50Kg, 85Kg, 90/91LB, 115RE /136RE, UIC54 and UIC60 rail, and so on.
