Railway spike installation guide

Railway spikes, as an important part of railway tracks, are small but crucial. They not only affect the driving safety of turnouts, but also play an indispensable role in daily use. Therefore, we must be extra careful during the installation of road spikes. Next, we will explore the installation techniques of road spikes in depth to ensure your safe and worry-free use.

1. The first task is to set up safety barriers, which is a crucial link and must not be taken lightly. During the entire process of dynamic construction, whether on new roads or on roads that have been opened to traffic, it is necessary to ensure that construction activities are carried out within the protection range of safety equipment. For the construction of open sections, the ratio of safety personnel to installation personnel should reach 1:1; while for construction of unopened sections, this ratio should be adjusted to 1:3.

2. The next step is to determine the installation position of the road spikes. The track pressure plate should ensure that the installation position is stable. For roads with expansion, gaps or uneven roads, it is necessary to sort them out in advance to make them flat.

3. Before installation, thoroughly clean the installation position with a brush and ensure that it is dry so that the road spikes can be installed firmly.

4. Finally, apply a proper amount of glue evenly on the road spikes, and then install them according to the predetermined position.

5. Press the road spikes tightly on the predetermined installation position, and ensure that the direction of the track pressure plate is correct. If glue overflows, be sure to clean it up in time.

6. For the installation of cast aluminum road spikes with feet, the depth of the hole should be at least 1 cm greater than the depth of the nail foot, and the diameter of the hole should be 2 mm larger than the diameter of the nail foot to ensure that the road spikes can be firmly fixed.

7. After the road spikes are installed, a comprehensive inspection should be carried out within two hours to carefully check whether the road spikes are installed upside down, crooked or pressed crooked to ensure their installation quality.

8. Wait for the road spikes to solidify for 4 hours before removing the previously installed barrier equipment.

Although the operation of installing road spikes is not complicated, we must pay special attention to every detail to ensure that the road spikes can be installed correctly and firmly to ensure driving safety.
