Product Description
Rail fish plate, it is also called rail joint or joint bar. A rail fishplate, splice bar or joint bar is a metal bar that is bolted to the ends of two rails to join them together in a track. Three commonly used types of rail fishplate include: Bolted fishplates, Compromise fishplates and Insulated joints.
As one of the rail components, rail joint's function is different from other rail components. Rail joint is a flat metal plate usually used to connect adjacent two rails by a number of rail bolts orrailroad spikes. Traditionally, railway fish plate is drilled with some holes on the ends of the sections to be connected. There are some holes in the end of railway track, which are used to be lined up with the holes in the railway fish plate and jointed with rail bolt. In general, railway fish plates are made of steel, but plastics and composites are alternative raw materials for rail joint.
The rail fishplate is derived from fish,a wooden reinforcement of a "built-up" ship's mast that helped round out its desired profile. The top and bottom faces taper inwards along their short dimensions to create an even alignment between the two rails when the fish plate is wedged into place by tightening its bolts during installation.In rail transport modelling, a fishplate is often a small copper or nickel silver plate that slips onto both rails to provide the functions of maintaining alignment and electrical continuity.
The moving blades of a railroad switch can be connected to the closure rails by looser than normal fishplates. This is called a heeled switch. Alternatively, the blade and closure rail can be a one piece heel-less switch, with a flexible thinned section to create the moving heel.
When railway lines are equipped with track circuits, or where the line is electrified for electric traction, the electrical connection provided by fishplates is poor and unreliable and has to be supplemented by bonding wire spanning the joined rails fixed by spot welding or other means.
Fish plate rail joint bar is a kind of connection fastener used for the connection between rails. The use of fish plate is more labor-saving than the rail butt welding technology, and the installation is simple and quick. The fish plate is used in conjunction with fish bolts.
Shanghai Bosheng Industries Co., Ltd is an ISO 9001/2008 certified company. All processes are in accordance with the requirements of ISO quality management system, from supplier quality control to finished products, we are in accordance with the standard procedures, we have strict quality control system for suppliers:
1. Before producing Rail Fishplate, we will check and test the raw materials. we require suppliers to provide production batch number, chemical composition, mechanical properties and other testing indicators.
2. Our quality control inspectors take sample sampling and batch testing after the process of manufacturing Rail Fishplate, and provide raw material certificate and other means to control the testing process.
3.According to the different requirements of Rail Fishplate, we make the corresponding physical and chemical testing and inspection. If the results do not meet our requirements, we will refuse to accept the materials only if they meet our standards.
4. For semi-finished products and their external suppliers of Rail Fishplate, we often organize quality control coordination meetings and provide technical advice and guidance. Ensure that qualified products are delivered to our customers prior to shipment.
