A 49E1 railway fishplate is a specific type of fishplate (or joint bar) designed to connect two rails of the 49E1 profile, a European standard T-rail that weighs approximately 49.39 kg per meter. The fishplate is a steel component that bolts to the sides of the rail ends to maintain alignment, distribute train loads, and provide a continuous, stable track for a smooth ride. 49E1 Railway Fishplate is also known as S49 railway fishplate or 49E1 rail joint bar or S49 rail joint bar.
"49E1" refers to a specific profile or shape of the railway rail.
It is a T-rail (flat bottom rail) that meets the European standard EN 13674-1.
The "49" indicates the approximate weight of the rail per meter (49.39 kg/m).
It fits into the web (the central part) of the rail, with its top and bottom surfaces tapering to align with the rail heads.
49E1 Fishplates use several fish bolts that pass through holes in the fishplate and the rail.
When these bolts are tightened, they wedge the fishplate against the rail, creating friction and preventing movement.
This process forms a continuous, smooth surface for the train wheels to roll over.
