Weld-on Shoulder:

Weld-on shoulder is made by hot forging, and such shoulder is used for places where standard sleepers are unable to be easily used so the shoulders need to be welded on the flat steel base plates. In this way, it can fabricates the rail retaining units on both the steel ties and base plates, according to AREMA standard always.
Weld-on shoulders can be applied for clips with a range of 30lbs to 113lbs.
