Application Rules of Rail Anchors

Rail anchors should be on the gage side of the rail base against the same tie face on opposite rails.

Rail anchors have to hold the rail base tightly and firmly and have full bearing against rail tie face.

A new rail anchor and a rail tie will be needed when the bearing of rail anchor against the tie has been disturbed.

Anchors shall not be moved by driving them along the rail.

The rail ties should be kept straightened when the anchors are applied.
