A railway holding down bolt, also known as an anchor bolt or foundation bolt, is a crucial fastener used to secure structural components in place, particularly for fastening steel structures, equipment, or machinery to concrete foundations.
Signum Rail Fastening supplies a range of railway holding down bolts. We also manufacture and supply bespoke bolts and accessories to suit your company needs.
The diameter of our railway holding down bolt varies form 16mm to 24mm,the length varies from 125mm to 300mm. Signum can provide normal strength railway holding down bolt and high strength railway holding down bolt.
The primary function of the bolt is to:
Provide stability and prevent movement of the fastened structure.
Resist forces such as tension, compression, shear forces, vibrations, and seismic activity, thereby ensuring the safety and integrity of the structure.
Anchor items firmly to a base, minimizing the risk of structural failure or displacement.
Rail anchors (Anticreepers): These are specifically designed to prevent the rail itself from longitudinal movement or "creeping" caused by temperature changes, traffic, and braking actions.
Chair screws (Coach screws): Large metal screws used to screw a baseplate or the rail directly into the sleeper (tie).
Fang bolts (Rail anchor bolts): Bolts inserted through a hole in the sleeper with a fanged nut that bites into the lower surface, providing strong resistance to vibration.
Material: They are typically made of high-strength steel (e.g., carbon steel, alloy steel) to ensure durability.
Installation: The bolts are often positioned and fixed before concrete is poured (cast-in-place), or holes may be reserved and later filled with grout around the bolt after positioning the structure. A waxed cardboard cone is often used during installation to create a void, allowing for minor adjustments in alignment before final grouting.
Kunshan Signum Machinery Technology Co.,Ltd is able to supply holding down bolts according to customers' requirements or drawing with competitive price.
