Rail Tie Plate


Rail iron tie plate (also called sole plate, base plate) and elastic cushion are installed between the rails and the sleepers to disperse the longitudinal forces to the sleepers pushed by the rail and freight. Rail plates with shoulders can also bear the lateral force.

Rail Rubber Pad

 

Railway rubber pad, also called elastic cushion, is used on concrete sleepers rather than on timber. It is used to reduce the fatigue cracking of the concrete ties. It can buffer the impact loads and insulate the rails from sleepers. GNEE RAIL can supply rubber pads made from natural rubber, SBR, chloroprene rubber, HDPE and EVA.
