BS Standard Sizes

The British Standard (BS) sizes for fish plates are widely used in the United Kingdom and some countries in the Middle East and Africa. The BS standard sizes include BS60, BS75, and BS80. These sizes are designed for rails with different weights and dimensions. For instance, BS60 fish plates are used for rails that weigh 30.7kg/m, while BS75 fish plates are used for rails that weigh 47.6kg/m. BS80 fish plates are used for heavy rails that weigh 63.7kg/m. The dimensions of BS60 fish plates are 203.2mm x 114.3mm x 25.4mm, while those of BS75 fish plates are 228.6mm x 114.3mm x 25.4mm. The dimensions of BS80 fish plates are 305mm x 127mm x 38mm.

Quality Control in Rail Fishplate Production

We strictly follow standard procedures and maintain a robust quality control system for our suppliers:

Raw Material Inspection:

Before producing rail fishplates, we check and test all raw materials. Suppliers are required to provide production batch numbers, chemical composition data, mechanical properties, and other relevant test indicators.

In-Process Quality Testing:

Our quality control inspectors conduct sampling and batch testing during the manufacturing process. We verify material compliance using raw material certificates and other control methods to ensure the integrity of the testing process.

Physical and Chemical Testing:

Depending on the specific requirements of the rail fishplate, we carry out corresponding physical and chemical tests. If the results do not meet our standards, the materials will be rejected. Only materials that fully comply with our criteria are accepted.

Supplier Coordination and Oversight:

For semi-finished products and external suppliers of rail fishplates, we regularly hold quality control coordination meetings. We also provide technical advice and guidance to ensure all delivered products meet quality standards before shipment.

FAQ

Q: What is the function of fish plates in rail tracks?

A: Fish plates are used to join two sections of rail in a track. The joint between two sections of rail is a weak point in the track because it is prone to wear and tear. Fish plates provide additional support and strength to the joint, helping to maintain the integrity of the track.

Q: What are the different types of fish plates?

A: There are two main types of fish plates: bolted and welded. Bolted fish plates are attached to the rails using bolts and nuts, while welded fish plates are attached using a welding process.

Q: What are the materials used to manufacture fish plates?

A: Fish plates are typically made from steel, cast iron, or aluminum. Steel fish plates are the most common and are used in most applications. Cast iron fish plates are used in special applications where there is a need for a more rigid joint, while aluminum fish plates are used in areas with high electrical conductivity.

Q: Why are standard sizes important for fish plates?

A: Standard sizes are important for fish plates because they ensure that the plates will fit properly with the rail sections they are joining. Using the wrong size of fish plate can result in a weak joint that is prone to failure.

Q: What are the UIC, AREMA, and BS standard sizes for fish plates?

A: The UIC standard sizes for fish plates include UIC54, UIC60, and UIC70. The AREMA standard sizes include 115-119RE, 132-136RE, and 141-143RE. The BS standard sizes include BS60, BS75, and BS80.
