HDPE Railway Pad
A rail pad, also called rail rubber plate, is designed between the rail tie plate and foot of the rail, which is interposed between steel rails and tie sleepers to protect the sleeper top from wearing and impacting. Its defined stiffness is used to increase the elasticity of the superstructure of the ballast and reduce shock and vibration in the rail system. With such upgraded load distribution, it will lead to greater passenger comfort and less wearing onto the superstructure. The strengthened elasticity effects positively onto the wear of the superstructure items and rolling stock.
It's always fastened within a fastening system by screw spikes or rail bolts into the sleeper ties. The reason why rail pad made up of rubber ,HDPE,EVA etc is to dampen the shocks or vibration of a passing train.
Performance advantages of HDPE railway pads
- The load distribution covering a larger surface area
- Reducing load concentration and usage fatigue stress
- Even contact area between the rail and supporting components
- Reducing noise and structural vibrations
- Sealing function between the top support and rail bottom
- Reducing rail wearing and relevant supporting components
Railway Pad Packaging & Shipping
Protective treatment: Steel baseplates undergo anti-rust oil coating or plating, while rubber components receive dust-proof and moisture-proof treatments.
Packaging methods: Steel baseplates are typically packed on wooden or metal pallets, whereas rubber pads are packed in woven bags or cartons with additional pallets; the outer layer is wrapped with plastic film for moisture protection.
