How to maintain and maintain railway fishplates?

Railway fishplate is an important connecting piece used to connect two rails together to ensure the safe and stable operation of the train. However, due to long-term exposure to train loads and environmental influences, railway fishplates are prone to wear, corrosion, loosening and other problems, and therefore require regular maintenance and upkeep. Here are some tips on how to maintain and maintain your railroad fishplates.

Tighten the fishtail bolts

Railway fishplates require matching fishbolts to connect the two rails, so the most important step in the maintenance process is to tighten the fishbolts. The tightness of the fishtail bolts should be checked regularly to ensure that they can firmly connect the two rails. If the fishtail bolt is found to be loose, it needs to be tightened or replaced in time.

Check for wear

Railway fishplates are prone to wear during long-term use, so their wear needs to be checked regularly. If the fishplate is found to be severely worn, it needs to be replaced in time. At the same time, check whether there are burrs or bulges on the edges of the fishplate, which also need to be processed in time to avoid damage to the rails.

Anti-corrosion treatment

Railway fishplates are exposed to the natural environment for a long time and are susceptible to corrosion. Therefore, the fishplate needs to be treated regularly for anti-corrosion, such as painting with anti-rust paint or spraying with anti-rust agent. In addition, the surface of the fishplate should be checked regularly for rust or oxidation. If these problems exist, they need to be dealt with in time to avoid damage to the rails.
