How Rail Anchors Work in Railways

Aug 20, 2025 Leave a message

GNEE RAIL manufactures rail anchors using spring steel with a one-piece structure, capable of securing rails tightly to the track base. They effectively prevent longitudinal track movement (known as "track creeping") caused by temperature variations, gradients, traffic patterns, and train braking.

 

Rail anchors provided by GNEE RAIL, including Drive-on rail anchors, Spring type rail anchors, and Improved fair anchors etc offer an enlarged support surface for both the rail base and sleeper. This prevents cutting and abrasion, extends sleeper service life, and reduces client railway maintenance costs.

For heavy rail tracks such as 50kg, 70lb, 80lb, and 90/91lb, the best option for steel material is 60Si2MnA.

 

Type Material Weight(g/pc)
50Kg 60Si2MnA 800
70LB 60Si2MnA 800
85LB 60Si2MnA 800
90/91LB 60Si2MnA 800
