Products Description
Railroad spike are fasteners used to firmly fix rails to sleepers and are one of the essential basic parts in railway track systems. Their main function is to prevent the track from moving horizontally or vertically, ensuring that the train maintains a consistent track gauge during operation, thereby improving the safety and stability of operation. Although railway technology continues to develop and many fastening systems have become more complex, traditional track maintenance spikes are still widely used in many areas, especially in wooden sleeper track systems.

Railroad spikes are usually made of high-strength carbon steel, which is corrosion-resistant, impact-resistant, and durable. They are installed in wooden sleepers by hammering or pressing them in, so that the rails fit tightly against the sleepers, thus effectively resisting the vibration and impact of train operation.

Power
As to the holding power, the screw spikes can provide more than twice of the power than the dog spikes.
Cost
Because of the greater fixing power and the feature that can be combined with spring washers, the cost of manufacture of the screw spike is higher than the dog spikes or dog nails.
