Rail pads are high-performance components installed between rails and sleepers that serve multiple vital functions. They are designed to minimize the stress imposed by trains traveling at various speeds while ensuring that track alignment is maintained. Made from a variety of materials, rail pads are engineered to withstand heavy loads and different environmental conditions, making them a fundamental aspect of railway maintenance.
Our EVA/HDPE/rubber rail pads are with high elasticity, applying to types for rails such as rail UIC54, UIC60, BS80lbs,BS100lbs, and sizes as ordered. The pads can be customized with or without grooves, in various possible designs, depending on customers' req

What is the bonding strength standard for railroad pads?
Rail pad bonding strength standards focus on secure rubber-to-steel adhesion, often requiring minimum shear strength like 4.7 kN/m² (Bemo Rail) or specified tear strength (e.g., 15 to 30 kN/m for reinforced pads) and specific material properties (tensile strength, elasticity) tested via dynamic/static load-deflection tests, ensuring durability and vibration damping.
How to use the Elastic Rail Pad correctly?
To use an elastic rail pad correctly, place it precisely between the clean sleeper and the steel rail, ensuring it's centered and flat, then fasten the rail using clips/bolts torqued to specific values (e.g., 300-450 N·m) to compress it evenly, checking for slight overhang and no tilting after installation for optimal vibration dampening and load distribution.
GNEE RAIL provides exceptional elastic rail pads of various types for high-speed railways, normal-speed railways, and cranes. Especially the rail pads made of rubber, EVA, TPEE, and HDPE are very popular with customers. Our railway rubber pads fit the rails such as UIC54, UIC60, BS80lbs, BS100lbs, etc. We have more than 130set of machines in our production lines which can reach an annual production capacity of up to 2000, 000 pieces of rail pads. We offer a wide range of rail pads and other track materials at competitive prices.
