A railroad anchor, also known as a rail anchor or tie plate, the
anchor is placed on the outer side of the rail and driven into the
tie, creating a secure connection, ensuring the safety and
durability of railroad tracks. Different types of anchors may be
used depending on the specific requirements of the track and the
type of rail used in the railway structure.
GNEE rail anchor is carefully selected high-quality materials,
ensuring corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and long-lasting
durability. ur manufacturing process is closely monitored to meet
high standards in every detail. Choose GNEE for a stable guarantee
in your railway system.
Rail anchors have different shapes, such as Improved Fair, Unit V
or Channeled. We GNEE manufacture diverse rail anchor types to
accommodate different rail sections, including 85LB, 90LB, 115RE,
132RE, UIC54, UIC60, 50kg, and more.

Rail Anchor Application Guidelines
1. Rail anchors should be positioned on the gage side of the rail
base, against the same tie face on opposite rails.
2. Ensure that rail anchors securely and firmly hold the rail base,
providing full bearing against the rail tie face.
3. When the bearing of the rail anchor against the tie has been
disturbed, use a new rail anchor and rail tie.
4. Avoid moving anchors by driving them along the rail.
5. Keep the rail ties straightened during the application of
anchors.
