💡 Product Introduction

Plain Surface Cast Iron 5.6 Grade Rail Shoulders are expertly cast in concrete ties for the secure fixation of Elastic Rail Clips. These Iron Shoulders are manufactured using high-quality pearlitic malleable iron (M.C.I. Inserts) and spheroid graphite iron (S.G.C.I. Inserts) to ensure long-term durability and structural integrity.

We provide two primary configurations to meet diverse railway needs:

Single Stem Iron Shoulders: Predominantly utilized in pre-stressed concrete ties.
Twin Stem Iron Shoulders: Commonly applied in Bi-Block or Twin Block concrete ties.

The shoulder accessories are designed for specific rail sections, ensuring that the correct elastic clip toe loading is achieved. Specialized shoulders are also available with milled weld area faces to facilitate superior weld integrity during installation.

How do I choose between Single Stem and Twin Stem shoulders?

Single Stem shoulders are typically used for standard pre-stressed concrete ties, while Twin Stem shoulders are designed for Bi-Block or Twin Block concrete tie systems.

Which rail types are compatible with these shoulders?

Our shoulders support a wide range of international standards, including UIC54, UIC60, 115RE, and various kg/m rail profiles (50kg, 60kg).

What surface treatments are provided?
