What is railroad tie plate?
As an important part of rail fastening system, railroad tie plate is indispensable on railway construction. While, what's railroad tie plate, you may ask? A railroad tie plate is a thick steel panel which sits between the tracks and rail ties (or called rail sleepers) on a standard railroad track. Railroad tie plates are generally tapered at each end to improve stability and reduce torsion and twisting along the tracks. Rails installed with tie plates are better able to maintain their position, which helps to standardize the width, or gauge, of the track along its length. During the railway construction, engineers and rail workers use railroad tie plates to prolong the lifespan of a new track installation, which promise safety for passengers and railway workers as maximum as possible.
