Compromise joint bars are one kinds of special rail joint bar. As we know, normal rail joint bars are the components involved in railway applications that connect different sections of rails together while maintaining gauge and keeping the alignment of rail surfaces. Unlike normal rail joint bar, compromise joint bars are used for joints of abnormal rails.
GNEE rail offer various types of compromise joint bars, mainly including the following types and we also customize all kinds compromise splice bar based on your specific needs, welcome to send us your sample or drawings
Directional (right or left hand) compromise rail joint bar
A directional (right or left-hand) compromise rail joint bar is a type of railway connector used to address differences in the width of the rail head between two sections. It allows for rail offsetting to align the gauge side of the rail. ensuring a smooth and stable connection at the joint.
Non-directional (gauge or field side) joint bar
A non-directional (gauge or field side) joint bar is a type of railway connector used when there are variations in the height of rail heads between two sections, or when the difference in width of rail heads at the gauge point is not more than 1/8 inch. The gauge point is the spot on the gauge side of the rail exactly 5/8 inch below the top of the rail.
