How are Rubber Rail Pads packaged and shipped?

 

Rubber rail pads are packaged through a systematic process to ensure integrity and performance stability during transportation. Each standard unit contains 50 pads, protected by a three-dimensional structure of 0.8mm high-strength corrugated cardboard with moisture-proof aluminum foil lining. EPE pearl cotton protectors are embedded at the corners, tested to withstand 800kg of vertical pressure. For extreme climates, silica gel desiccants and vacuum shrink film are added to combat high humidity and temperature.

Rubber Rail Pad
Technical Parameter Unit Value
Stiffness KN 90-130
Hardness Shore A ℃ 72-80 degree
Electronic Resistance Ω ≥ 106
Tensile Strength before Aging Mpa ≥12.5
Elongation before Aging % ≥250

 

Shipping solutions are customized based on order volume. Container shipping uses 40ft high-cube containers, loading 280 standard units (≈14,000 pads) via honeycomb stacking with 92% space utilization. LCL shipments employ pallets limited to 1.8m height, secured with 12-layer PET stretch film and steel guard frames. Air freight uses lightweight aviation composite board packaging, reducing unit weight by 40%.

Functions of Rubber Rail Pad

 

In general, the main functions of rubber rail pads are reducing the high-speed vibration and impact of steel rails, protecting the railroad bed and the sleepers, and conduct electrical insulation to the information system. During the application, the rubber rail pads are often composed to the air. So in order to prolong the lifetime of rubber rail pads, we should improve the ageing resistance, cold-resistant, heat resistance and rot resistance of rubber rail pads. In order to make you get a better idea of rubber rail pads, we will have a detailed introduction about the features of rubber rail pads.
