Railroad screws spikes provide a mechanical interlock that delivers more than twice the holding power of conventional hammered railway spikes. Screw spikes are commonly used to fasten timber railway ties/sleepers; however, they can also be used in conjunction with plastic ferrules that have been cast into concrete ties/sleepers. Various thread profiles, lengths, diameters and drive heads are available to suit specific geographic requirements and GNEE RAIL can help with product specification and selection.
Railroad Sleeper Screw Spike Specification
35K steel (medium carbon steel) offers good ductility and toughness, suitable for medium-load rail systems; 45# steel (high carbon steel) provides greater strength and wear resistance, commonly used in heavy-duty and mountainous railways; 40Mn2 steel (medium manganese alloy steel) delivers excellent fatigue resistance under impact and low-temperature conditions, making it ideal for high-speed and cold-region railway applications.
