screw spike

 

The screw spike is a specialized fastener designed to connect steel rails to concrete sleepers, featuring a rod with a screw at the lower part and a bolt at the upper part. During installation, the rod is secured into the pre-drilled hole in the concrete sleeper, while the upper bolts are used to fix the gusset plate or elastic components. This design ensures a robust connection while accommodating specific track requirements.
